Panel-mounted protectors • A/C protection • Permitted & inspected • (239) 880-9473
A whole-house Type 2 protector goes at the panel, and some homes add a second stage, a Type 1 plus Type 2 setup. A beach home often has extra equipment worth protecting: elevated A/C condensers, pool equipment, boat lift controls and dock outlets.
The Town of Fort Myers Beach runs its own Building Services Division within Community Development, separate from Lee County.
Yes. A protector at the panel covers the house; a unit made for the condenser, like the DITEK Kool Guard 2 we installed on a Cape Coral A/C, protects the A/C itself. On docks, GFCI or ground-fault equipment protection is the safety layer, with a No Swimming warning at the controls; see how we wired a Fort Myers Beach boat lift.
It is the cheapest time: the cover is off and the permit is open. After Ian, owners replacing service equipment often add protection at the same time so a future surge does not take out new gear.
A protector wired into the panel is an electrical modification, so it rides on the panel permit through the Town’s portal; the Town’s private provider inspects. We ask the Town early whether anything in the parcel’s flood conditions affects the work.
