Faulty or poorly installed wiring is one of the biggest causes of preventable electrical house fires. Aluminum wiring in particular, can pose an additional fire risk. According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), homes built and wired with aluminum wiring before 1972 were 55 times more likely to have wire connections considered fire hazards than similar homes wired with copper. If your home was built between 1965 and the mid 1970’s an APower electrician can take a thorough look at the wiring in your home to determine if any aluminum wiring is present. We will remove or repair any aluminum wiring present to decrease fire hazards to make your home safer..
