Aluminum Wiring
One common question we get from homeowners is,
"Is aluminum certification really necessary?"
In the last few years, there's been an increase in concerns regarding the general safety of aluminum wiring.
In particular, owners of homes built from the mid-60s and 70s with aluminum electrical wires find that many insurance companies won't provide insurance coverage on such properties - unless the aluminum wiring is certified, inspected, and repaired or replaced. Even more so, everything has to be inspected by ESA, and a copy of the certificate of the inspection has to be provided to the insurance company.
The problems with aluminum wiring are many - but the most common is the overheating and failure of aluminum wiring terminators. It also tends to oxidize and is incompatible with devices designed to use copper wiring only.
What Can You Do?
Each home is wired differently and must be assessed on an individual basis. ESA recommends that homeowners hire an authorized electrical contractor - yes, that includes us - experienced in approved methods for working on aluminum wiring.
You have a couple of options:
Aluminum Wiring Rejuvenation - This includes replacing all the receptacles and switches in the home with those rated for aluminum wiring. It also includes treating all connections at light fixtures and junctions (the boxes for connecting wires) with an antioxidant and replacing all wire connectors with those rated for aluminum.
Rewiring - This is your best long-term solution. By replacing old aluminum wiring with copper wiring, you are eliminating all problems related to it. However, a complete rewire job represents a substantial investment.
You know what would be a great starting point? Giving us a call and scheduling an assessment.
