Summer heat and electrical issues can be especially dangerous for older adults living at home. From overheating to power outages, even small electrical problems can quickly become major risks for seniors.
At E&A ELECTRIC LLC, we care about the safety of every member of your household. Here are the top electrical precautions we recommend for keeping seniors safe and comfortable this summer.
Seniors are more vulnerable to heat exhaustion, especially in homes without consistent air conditioning.
Tips:
Bathrooms, kitchens, basements, and outdoor areas must have GFCI outlets to prevent electrical shock. If your loved one lives in an older home, these may be missing or outdated.
We can upgrade outlets quickly and affordably to meet current code and safety standards.
In a power outage, navigating in the dark can be extremely dangerous — especially for seniors with limited mobility or vision.
Consider adding:
Cords stretched across floors, overloaded power strips, or outlets behind furniture can become tripping or fire hazards.
Solutions:
Electrical upgrades aren’t just about power — they’re about peace of mind. Whether you’re helping a parent or planning for your own future comfort, E&A ELECTRIC LLC can make any home safer, smarter, and more senior-friendly.
