Questions and Answers
My HVAC system in Auburn seems weak; could an electrical issue be the cause?
Yes, especially in our area where duct leakage and smart thermostat malfunctions are common. Poor airflow can sometimes stem from faulty wiring to the blower motor or a malfunctioning thermostat circuit. Aries Electric can diagnose the electrical components of your HVAC system, check for proper voltage at the unit, and ensure your smart thermostat is correctly wired and communicating, helping to restore efficient operation to your home.
What's involved in an electrical inspection for an older Auburn home?
For older homes in Auburn, our inspection focuses on safety and capacity. We check for outdated wiring like knob-and-tube or aluminum, ensure grounding is present and correct, test all outlets for proper function, and evaluate your electrical panel for overloaded circuits. This helps identify fire hazards, ensures your system can handle modern appliances, and provides a clear plan for any needed upgrades or repairs.
Can you help upgrade my home's lighting for better efficiency and technology?
Absolutely. We specialize in lighting upgrades that combine energy efficiency with modern convenience. This can include installing LED fixtures for long-term savings, adding dimmers for ambiance, setting up motion sensors for security and efficiency, or integrating smart lighting systems you can control from your phone. We'll ensure everything is installed correctly and works seamlessly with your home's existing electrical system.
