Knob and Tube Removal and Rewiring
Many homes over 50 years old have knob and tube electrical
systems. This system uses ceramic insulators and tubes to guide wires
throughout a home. Homeowners that have this type of system should consider
having it removed and replaced with newer technology. A deteriorating
knob and tube system can pose a few safety and fire hazards. Knob and
tube
systems are not grounded, while many modern electronics need a proper ground
for safety. Some families have even been denied homeowners insurance
because their homes contain knob and tube wiring.
If your home contains knob and tube wiring, a consideration
should be made to having your electrical system updated to current
standards. Dave Thomas Electric will remove your old knob and tube
wiring, and rewire your home with a modern system. We can complete this
process without doing extreme damage to the walls of your home. During
our installation we can install a smoke alarm system for added safety.
When finished your older home will be equipped with a modern electrical
system for you to enjoy.
