Signs You Need a Heavy Up
A service upgrade, sometimes called a heavy-up, increases the amount of power entering your home. You may need one if you notice:
- Breakers tripping under normal use
- The lights are dimming when the appliances start
- 60- or 100-amp service
- Plans for an EV charger
- Adding a major appliance
- Planned addition or remodel
- Heavy reliance on power strips
- The old fuse box is still installed
Overland Park’s climate puts heavy demands on home electrical systems. Air conditioners run hard through hot, humid summers, while electric heat, heat pumps & space heaters add load during cold winters. When those seasonal demands combine with modern kitchens, home offices & EVs, older service often can’t keep up. Constant strain can lead to overheating & premature wear on your electrical system.
Benefits of Upgrading Electrical Service
A service upgrade increases the available power in your home, allowing you to run appliances, HVAC equipment & electronics at the same time without nuisance trips. It also improves safety by reducing the strain on wiring & components that can overheat when overloaded. Many upgrades include new service equipment & a modern panel, replacing worn parts that may no longer properly protect your home.
Upgraded service also makes future projects easier. You’ll have the capacity to add EV chargers, hot tubs, workshops & additions without starting over. A modern electrical system can also be a selling point for buyers & helps avoid concerns during home inspections. Most importantly, it gives you peace of mind that your home’s electrical system is ready for how you live today.
Supporting Modern Electrical Demands
Today’s homes use far more electricity than homes built just a few decades ago. Larger kitchens with induction cooktops, multiple refrigerators, home offices, entertainment systems & smart devices all add to your daily load. Electric vehicles alone can require a dedicated high-amperage circuit that older service simply can’t support.
Our electricians start by evaluating your current service size, panel & expected future needs. We recommend the right service level, often 200 amps for modern homes, & coordinate with the utility as needed for disconnection & reconnection. We then install the new service equipment & panel to code & test your system to confirm everything is working safely. You’ll know the full scope & cost before we begin.
