Aluminum Wiring in West Seattle Home
We received a phone call from one of our Angie's List customers, they wanted to first take advantage of our free estimate process and hopefully find a Seattle Electrical contractor to work with to remove all of the aluminum wiring in the home. Seatown Electric provided a comprehensive walk through and a prompt proposal for the work that was needed. Seatown Electric provides a quick 24 hour turn around on all estimates. The estimate came in at an affortable budget for the homeowner. The job consisted of changing out old aluminum wiring with new copper wiring. There was two options that our homeowner was left with. Option one did not end up meeting the overall budget becuase it would require rewiring all of the outlets. However there is a way to reduce the dangers of aluminum wiring by eliminating the connection points (the outlet/switch or light fixture screws) Most home fires due to aluminum wiring happen at the outlet/switch connection point. You can extent, convert or Pigtail the aluminum wire at each device down to copper wire using alumiconn connectors you can click the link for more info on Alumiconn connectors: http://www.kinginnovation.com/category-pages/electrical-landing.php The King innovation connectors are ideal for pigtailing to copper wire. And they are one of the few connectors that are Approved by the Consumer Products Safety Commission The homeowner decided this was the way to go. All and all it took 3 total days to complete. New pigtails where installed and new Tamper Resistant outlets too. Since we had to replace all of the outlets AFCI protection was required to all of the circuits that we tampred with. The project went smooth from start to finish.
