Is Your Home’s Electrical System Outdated?

Are you living in an older Des Moines home? Your electrical system might be putting your family at risk. Here’s what to look out for:

Common Electrical Issues in Older Homes

Outdated Wiring Systems

Many Des Moines homes built before 1980 still use outdated electrical systems. These older setups weren’t designed for today’s many electronics and appliances. From vintage knob-and-tube setups to aluminum wiring, these outdated systems can create serious safety risks.

Insufficient Outlets

Modern families use far more electronic devices than homes of the past were designed to handle. When older homes don’t have enough outlets, many individuals resort to using power strips and extension cords, which can overload circuits.

Ungrounded Electrical Systems

Those old two-prong outlets in your home aren’t just inconvenient – they’re unsafe. Without proper grounding, your home lacks an important safety feature that protects both your electronics and your family.

Signs Your Home Needs an Electrical Inspection

  • Your home frequently trips circuit breakers
  • Outlets feel warm to the touch
  • You smell burning plastic near electrical fixtures
  • Lights flicker when appliances turn on
  • You rely heavily on power strips and extension cords

Don’t wait for these warning signs to turn into emergencies. Trust Schaal’s licensed electrical team to thoroughly inspect your home’s electrical system and recommend necessary safety updates. Schedule your inspection today by calling (515) 207-6042.
