When Should You Have Your Outlets Replaced?
Knowing when to replace your electrical outlets may not always be easy. But here are a few signs to watch out for when considering replacement.
- Aging outlets: In addition to being an eyesore, an aging outlet can easily succumb to electrical issues.
- Outdated outlets: Outdated outlets may also be risky. If you’re still using outlets that can no longer keep up with your current demands, consider replacing them with new ones.
- Wear and tear: Like most things, outlets are prone to wear and tear, which can lead to poor or loose connections. Consequently, this can cause excessive heat buildup with the potential to ignite a fire.
- Appliance upgrades: If you’re planning to add or upgrade some appliances in your home, then it might be time to replace your outlets.
Is It Time to Upgrade Your Outlets?
Most homeowners don’t think about their home’s outlets until they quit working. However, there are several situations where it’s a matter of safety to upgrade to newer, more modern outlets. For example, if you have only two-pronged outlets, consider upgrading them to the safer, grounded three-prong outlets. Also, loose sockets pose a shock and fire hazard and require immediate upgrading. If you have outlets near water such as in the bathroom or the kitchen, upgrading to GFCI outlets protects against shock and electrocution. Lastly, if you have a variety of USB devices that require charging but can’t ever find an open outlet, upgrading to USB outlets solves the problem. Call Elite Electric, Plumbing & Air today and let us inspect your outlets to determine what upgrades can make you safer.

What Are GFCI Outlets?
GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlets exist to protect people from electric shocks. Unlike a fuse, the GFCI is integrated into the outlet itself. When you plug in an appliance, for example, the GFCI outlet constantly monitors the amount of power going into the device. If it detects a slight flow of electricity to a grounded item, such as a person, it immediately shuts off the flow of electricity. Over the years, GFCI outlets have been required in locations such as kitchens, basements, garages, and around plumbing equipment.
