Summer Safety Check: 5 Electrical Tips Every Edmonton Home Needs For Summer

Edmonton summers mean long, warm days and heavy strain on your home’s electrical system. Is yours ready? At MMi Electrical, your trusted residential electrician in Edmonton, we want every homeowner prepared, powered, and safe. If you haven’t planned a summer electrical check-up yet, now’s the time.


Upgrade to a Smart Thermostat for Energy Savings & Comfort

Smart thermostats such as Nest, Ecobee, or Honeywell learn your preferences and optimize energy use. They can reduce cooling bills by up to 10 to 12 percent and keep your home more comfortable during heat waves. 

Get your Electrical Panel Checked  

Is your home older than 30 years? Heavy appliance use (A/C units, EV chargers, pool pumps) often overloads outdated panels.

  • Enough capacity for A/C, EV chargers, and modern appliances

  • Reduced risk of breaker trips and overheating

  • Insurance compliance and increased home value

As licensed residential electricians, we can do a load calculator to see if you require a service upgrade.

Do You Have Enough Summer Outlets to Meet Your Summer Needs?

Summer in Edmonton means BBQs, pools, and outdoor lights, all of which put extra demand on your electrical system. Without enough safe, dedicated outdoor outlets, you risk overloads, extension cord hazards, and water-related shocks. Make sure your setup includes:

  • GFCI outlets that shut off power instantly if moisture is detected

  • Weather-resistant bubble covers, as required by code

MMi Electrical installs and tests outdoor outlets to meet today’s standards, so you can enjoy summer safely.

Get Whole Home-Surge Protection to Guard Against Storms & Power Outages

Edmonton's summer storms can generate electrical surges that damage your electronics and appliances.

Whole-home surge protection provides essential protection from external sources, such as lightning, and internal causes, like cycling A/C units. We install the surge protection right at the panel to protect your home.

  • Surge protection comes with insurance against any damage to appliances.
