Common Electrical Issues in Today’s Homes

Many homes in Eugene were built before modern safety standards became the norm. If your home was constructed prior to the 1990s and hasn’t undergone a full electrical update, chances are you could be dealing with outdated components like aluminum wiring, old knob-and-tube systems, or a lack of GFCI protection in kitchens and bathrooms. These setups may have "worked" for decades, but they are no longer safe or code-compliant.

Old wiring deteriorates over time, and even well-installed systems can begin to fail after decades of use. When combined with the growing demand from modern appliances, smart home tech, and electric vehicle chargers, the strain on these systems becomes too much—leading to flickering lights, tripped breakers, or worse.

The Hidden Dangers of DIY Fixes and Improper Workmanship

Homeowners sometimes attempt DIY electrical fixes or hire unlicensed handymen to save money. While the cost might seem lower upfront, poorly installed outlets, overloaded circuits, or mismatched wiring can create serious fire hazards. Electrical work is one of the leading causes of residential fires in the U.S., and the majority of those are linked to substandard repairs or installations. We frequently find signs of:

• Spliced wiring hidden behind walls or ceilings
• Overloaded circuits with too many connections
• Outdated breaker panels that can’t handle current loads
• Misused extension cords or plug-in power strips acting as permanent solutions

Even if you haven’t noticed any issues, your system could be one surge or short circuit away from costly repairs or dangerous consequences.

If you’re unsure about the state of your home’s electrical system, don’t wait. Call Associated Heating and Air Conditioning, Inc. to schedule an inspection.

Choose Associated Heating and Air Conditioning, Inc. for Electrical Services

At Associated Heating and Air Conditioning, Inc., our electrical services are built to improve your home’s comfort, safety, and energy performance. Whether you’re planning a remodel, upgrading an old panel, or adding outdoor lighting, our team ensures every job is done to the highest standards. Below, we’ve broken down what you need to know about our most requested electrical services—including when to consider them, why they matter, what’s included, and how to get started.

Electrical Panel Upgrades

Modern homes rely on more electricity than ever before. Your electrical panel must be able to distribute this power safely and consistently.

When to Consider

If your home still has a fuse box or a panel installed more than 25 years ago, it’s time to consider an upgrade. Warning signs include:

• Flickering lights when appliances run
• Frequently tripping breakers
• A panel that’s warm to the touch
• Crackling sounds or the smell of burning near the panel
• Planning to install high-demand appliances or EV chargers

In Eugene, many homes built in the mid-20th century were not designed for the electrical loads of modern living. A new panel is a foundational step for any energy-efficient or smart home upgrade.

Why It’s Important

A properly sized and installed electrical panel ensures:

• Safety from electrical fires caused by overloading
• Smooth operation of large appliances, HVAC, and electronics
• Compliance with current NEC codes and local Eugene regulations
• Increased home value and support for future system expansions

An upgraded panel provides peace of mind and prevents costly outages or equipment damage. We only use UL-listed components and follow rigorous safety protocols to ensure long-term reliability.

Surge Protection Systems

Today’s homes are packed with sensitive electronics and smart appliances that require consistent voltage levels. Whole-home surge protection is the defense system your electronics need.

When to Consider

Consider installing a surge protection system if:

• You’ve experienced power surges or flickering lights
• You have multiple smart devices or a home automation system
• You’ve installed solar panels, which can create reverse current
• You live in an area with frequent grid switching or storm outages

Eugene’s weather, grid fluctuations, and rising use of home tech make surge protection increasingly necessary.

Why It’s Important

A single power surge can destroy thousands of dollars in equipment. Benefits of surge protection include:

• Shielding your HVAC system, kitchen appliances, and electronics
• Reducing repair or replacement costs due to voltage spikes
• Extending the lifespan of sensitive equipment
• Preventing data loss in home offices or entertainment systems

Surge protection offers a powerful return on investment, especially for smart homes.

Lighting and Outlet Installation

Whether you’re updating a single room or planning a full home renovation, well-placed outlets and modern lighting transform the functionality and style of your space.

When to Consider

New outlets or lighting are a great idea when:

• Your current layout doesn’t match your usage needs
• You’re remodeling a kitchen, bathroom, or basement
• You want to reduce reliance on extension cords
• You’re upgrading to LED or smart lighting
• You need better outdoor lighting or security lighting

From accent lighting to task-focused installs, we tailor each layout to your goals.

Why It’s Important

Functional lighting and properly located outlets improve:

• Convenience and accessibility in every room
• Safety by reducing tripping hazards and overloaded circuits
• Energy efficiency with LED technology and timers
• Home security with motion-sensing exterior lights

A well-designed system supports your lifestyle while improving resale appeal.

Whole-House Generator Installation

In an era of increasingly unpredictable weather and grid interruptions, reliable backup power is no longer a luxury—it’s a necessity. Associated Heating and Air Conditioning, Inc. offers professionally installed whole-house generators in Eugene, OR to keep your lights on, appliances running, and HVAC systems functioning during power outages.

When to Consider

Whole-house generators are ideal for homeowners who want total energy independence during power disruptions. Consider installing one if:

• You’ve experienced multiple outages in recent years
• You work from home or rely on home medical equipment
• You want to protect food, electronics, and HVAC systems from spoilage or failure
• You live in areas near forested regions or neighborhoods with above-ground power lines
• You want a permanent, automatic backup solution—not a noisy, temporary unit

Many Eugene neighborhoods are prone to outages from storms or tree falls. Having a generator installed protects your comfort no matter the season.

Why It’s Important

A professionally installed whole-house generator automatically senses power loss and restores electricity within seconds—no manual startup or gasoline required. Benefits include:

• Safety: Maintain lighting, heat, and medical device function during extended outages.
• Convenience: No need to refuel or wheel out a portable unit in bad weather.
• Home Value: Increases resale appeal, especially for remote workers and families.
• HVAC Compatibility: Prevents system freezing or overheating during electrical loss.
• Automation: Systems run weekly self-diagnostics and can alert you or your electrician if service is needed.
