"I'd like to give a AAA+ rating to Ron and Jeremy owners of Cawiamca LLC. These guys are top notch! Ron provided competitive pricing for my new furnace system and installation. Jeremy did the install in less than a full day. I've had the system for little over a year. They came back this fall for an annual cleaning and I signed up with them for a service contract. Fast forward to December 24th Christmas eve. We lost power in Essex and my generator tripped the furnace off due to a surge. I called Ron who was out of state at the time. He phoned me back within 15 minutes. He then sent Jeremy over to survey and fix the problem. Jeremy explained he was on his way out for family festivities when Ron called. He got it up and running quickly. It was a very nice Christmas present for me. I can't stress enough how rare great customer service is these days. Cawiamca LLC. provides awesome customer service! —John M, Essex CT"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

While it’s not possible to put a main breaker in a main lug panel, it’s possible to convert a main lug to a main breaker. Converting to a main breaker panel offers increased safety, simplified control, compliance with building codes, and adaptation to changing electrical needs, especially when adding new circuits or upgrading the system.

Whether or not a pool needs a dedicated circuit depends on the electrical needs of the motor, lights, and pump. Keep in mind that pool motors can use a lot of electricity. A dedicated circuit can prevent the breaker from tripping whenever you use the pool. A small motor for an equally small pool may only need a GFCI outlet. It’s best to plug it directly into the outlet rather than using an extension cord. You should also consult an electrician to ensure your pool’s electrical system is in accordance with local regulations.

Yes, pool pumps use a significant amount of electricity, making them one of the biggest energy consumers in a home. A pool pump can use up to three times as much electricity as a refrigerator. Typically, a residential pool pump consumes about 1 kilowatt-hour (kWh) for every hour it runs. Because pumps often need to run for about eight hours a day to properly filter the water, this can add up to an annual consumption of 3,000 to 5,000 kWh, which can cost between $480 and $800 per year based on average electricity rates.

The amount of electricity your pump uses depends on its size, energy efficiency, and daily run time. To lower your energy consumption, you can choose an energy-efficient or variable-speed pump, ensure it is correctly sized for your pool, and run it only for the minimum time required to keep the water clean.

A faulty light switch can trip a breaker due to circuit overload or a short circuit. A faulty light switch may not always trip a breaker, so don’t use that as your only sign that something’s wrong. Always investigate the cause of a switch that isn’t working properly, feels hot to the touch, or is making unusual noises.

Electric bills tend to be lower in spring and fall because people use less electricity during these seasons. Milder temperatures allow for less use of heating and cooling, unlike during winter and summer, which usually bring more extreme temperatures.
