Local knowledge
What Charlotte Homeowners Need to Know
Older Charlotte Homes & Aluminium Wiring
Many Charlotte homes built between roughly 1965 and 1975 were wired with aluminium rather than copper. Aluminium wiring is a known fire hazard — it expands and contracts more than copper, causing connections to loosen over time. If your home was built in this period and you haven’t had an electrical inspection, it’s worth having a licensed electrician assess it. Look for CO/ALR rated outlets and switches, or a full remediation using pigtailing or replacement.
Whole-Home Surge Protection Is Worth It in Charlotte
Charlotte’s high thunderstorm frequency — over 100 storm days per year — makes whole-home surge protection a practical investment. A single nearby lightning strike can send a voltage spike through your electrical system that damages appliances, electronics, and HVAC equipment. Whole-home suppressors installed at the panel cost $200–$500 installed and can save thousands in appliance damage.
