Electric Heater Installation – Ellington CT

When you are in need of electric heater installation in your home or office, call AJP Electric LLC. Have you enclosed a porch, installed a three-season room or have a guest room that will not warm up in the cold months? Portable heaters may not be energy efficient or safe around children. It is important to have a licensed electrician run a separate circuit for any electric heaters you need. Whether you mount electric heaters in walls or along the baseboard, installing a heater on a separate electrical circuit is safer than plugging one into a wall socket. AJP Electric will run a new, safe 240-volt circuit and install a programmable thermostat. Most homes have sufficient capacity for the new circuit in your electric panel, however if your home does not we can upgrade your electrical panel as well.

When you have small electrical jobs around your home, such as replacement lighting, an exhaust fan or a ceiling fan installation, give AJP Electric LLC a call. Our motto “No job too small” reinforces our desire to take on those small projects that other companies may not want to do. Many of my clients are very happy to find an electrician they are comfortable with. Rather than attempt a project on your own or put up without service at all, give me a call. I hope to be your first choice for years to come. When you hire AJP Electrical, you will receive quality electrical service from a locally owned and family operated business with over 20 years of experience in on-site electrical troubleshooting, installation and maintenance.

Electrical Panel Upgrades – Ellington CT

As a licensed electrical contractor, AJP Electric performs electrical panel upgrades. The electrical panel is the heart of your home’s  electrical service. You may have a modern electrical panel but need to upgrade in order to install an air conditioner, a modern laundry room, a spa, or to accommodate a renovation or an addition. AJP Electric takes on residential or commercial clientele – no job is too big or too small. When your panel malfunctions, breakers will trip often, your panel may become hot, or may fail to trip and shock someone. A breaker that fails to trip may melt wiring or cause a fire. Modern electrical panels are properly designed and safe, however homes with old circuit boxes may be unsafe. If your electrical panel has fuses, your homeowners insurance agency will demand that you upgrade your panel.

It would be wise to get an electrical panel upgrade if you are adding new appliances, renovating or adding a home office, installing a swimming pool or spa or if you are adding new outlets throughout your home. When you need electrical work done around your home or commercial property, please call us for a consultation. Call AJP Electric LLC at 1-800-875-7755 today.

When to upgrade your electrical panel – Ellington CT

How do you know when it is time to upgrade your electrical panel? When you upgrade your home you have to consider if your home can handle the growing demand for electricity. If you are thinking of adding a large electric appliance such as an air conditioner, electric range, a washer & dryer or hot tub where you did not have one before, you should determine if your house can handle the increased electric load. A new central air conditioning system, for example, will need 3,000 to 5,000 watts to function effectively. You should also consider upgrading your system if you are planning to add living space and you cannot meet the new electric demand by adding additional circuits to the current panel box.

The electric system in a house reflects when it was built or last time it was rewired. Houses built or rewired more than 30 years ago typically have a 60 to 100-amp service. Amps are a measure of the quantity of electric power. Newer homes may have 150- or 200-amp service. The increase in amps over the years has kept pace with the number of new electrical appliances.

The amps listed on the main circuit breaker in the panel box determine the maximum amount the house can safely use. Each circuit in the house is also rated by amps. If the power demand for a circuit approaches the amps the circuit is rated for, the circuit breaker will trip and shut down power to the circuit, because there is a danger of the wiring overheating. If you hear hissing from the box, circuit breakers trip repeatedly or you have an old-fashioned fuse box rather than a panel box it’s time to upgrade. The best way to determine if you require an upgrade is to ask AJP Electric. Call us at 1-860-875-7755 and we’ll give a free consultation.

lighting electrical contractor

Lighting Electrical Contractor – Ellington CT

AJP Electric LLC is your local lighting electrical contractor serving the Ellington CT area. We are a family owned and operated company, located in Tolland CT. When you want to make a statement with lighting, consider having recessed lighting fixtures installed. Replacing an overhead fixture and table lamps with recessed lighting declutters your space. These lights are mounted into your ceiling and can provide both ambient and task lighting to just about any area in your home. These lights are available in many finishes and shapes. Your choice of bulbs include incandescent, fluorescent and LED. Fixtures that rotate, revolve and swivel are often used to light a gallery or artwork.

Recessed lighting installation must adhere to code requirements depending upon the location they are installed. All recessed fixtures are to be installed based on the regulations of your local municipality. Over the years, these fixtures have undergone improvement to ensure their safety, efficiency and ease of installation. Proper installation is required to reduce their fire hazard but also to prevent the buildup of condensation, mold growth and to minimize drafts.

Our motto at AJP Electric is ‘no job is too small’. When you would like to have lighting installed in or around your home, please call us for a consultation. Call 1-800-875-7755 today.

Generator Electrical Contractor – Coventry CT

Generator Installation Tolland County

AJP Electric is your local generator electrical contractor serving towns in Tolland County CT. Whether you own a home or a business, you want dependable and safe power – all the time.

When the power goes out, heating and cooling are affected, as are security and lighting. The electrical contractors at AJP Electric have solutions that give you peace of mind about the safety and security of your property.

We believe it is important to look into installing one of our emergency standby generators. Our products turn on when your main power source goes out, with little to no lag time. Schedule a consultation to find out which types of generators are best for your home or business. Whether you already have a generator that just needs a tune-up, or you’re in the market for a new backup power source, we’re here for you. Talk to us today to learn more about our generator solutions.

Do you need an interlocking system for your generator?

Everyone knows what a generator is, but do you know what an interlocking system is and how you and your family can benefit from one? A generator interlock kit is a device designed to allow safe backfeeding of a home through a portable generator during power outages. This eliminates unsafe generator backfeeding situations that could potentially electrocute power linemen or destroy the generator. Backfeeding occurs when electric power is being induced into the local power grid. Power flows in the opposite direction from its usual flow. Not only is this unsafe, but is illegal!

Some people have a manual transfer switch, but the problem is that you’ll need extension cords to connect all of your appliances to your generator. Running these cords through your home creates the hazards of tripping and falling, and even causing a fire. A big issue with transfer switches is that furnaces and water heaters can’t be connected by cord so these devices simply won’t work until power is restored.

We safely connect your generator to your panel without a transfer switch with an interlock kit. AJP Electric can easily mount an interlock device to your existing electrical panel. If you need to upgrade your electrical pane, we can do that too! We can even help you decide what generator to order. We can take care of everything for you, typically in one day or less. Call us at 1-860-875-7755 to learn how we can help you prepare for any electrical outage.

Renovating Older Homes – Coventry CT

Home Remodeling Electrical Contractors Tolland County

Renovating older homes can be a challenge. Old electrical wiring can be a safety hazard and will need to be brought up to code. Homes in the 1920s didn’t have hair dryers, and even something as small as that can draw more power than old household electrical systems can handle. Old wiring is also just an inconvenience: If you’ve ever lost power when running the microwave and the coffeemaker at the same time, you know what I mean. You might need to change ungrounded 2-prong outlets to 3-prong outlets, and rewire the house to get rid of old knob-and-tube wiring that can start a fire. Depending on your needs and the appliances you own, you may even need to upgrade modern wiring to support new appliances, computers, entertainment systems, and other projects.

The older a home is and the more times it has changed hands increases the likelihood that changes will have deviated from original design of the house. It’s best to err on the side of caution when renovating older homes. Call AJP Electric at 1-860-875-7755 for a free consultation. We can tell you what to expect and give you a plan that is affordable and safe for you and your family.
