Everything You Need to Know
We can install a wide variety of outlets and switches, including standard, GFCI, AFCI, USB, smart outlets, dimmer switches, and three-way switches. Our installations are tailored to suit both the functionality and aesthetic requirements of your space.
Yes, outdoor receptacles require specific features like weather and tamper resistance to ensure safety and durability against external elements. We install outdoor outlets with these considerations in mind, adhering to local codes and regulations.
Absolutely, we can assess and replace any outdated, malfunctioning, or unsafe outlets and switches with modern, safe, and more functional alternatives.
Installing GFCI receptacles in wet areas such as bathrooms and kitchens can significantly enhance safety by preventing shock. Likewise, replacing old, worn-out switches and outlets can reduce the risk of electrical fires.
Smart receptacles and switches can be controlled remotely via smartphones, allowing you to manage lighting and power usage efficiently, potentially saving energy and costs. They also offer convenience and enhanced security by allowing you to control your home’s lighting remotely.
Child-safe outlets, also known as tamper-resistant (TR) receptacles, are designed to prevent accidental shock or electrical injuries to children. These outlets have a shutter mechanism inside that requires equal pressure from both prongs of a plug to open, making it difficult for children to insert foreign objects into the slots. This design significantly enhances the safety of your home by mitigating the risk of electrical accidents, especially in households with young children. Installing child-safe outlets in key areas of your home can provide peace of mind and a safer environment for your family. Our team at VAA Electrical can assess your home and recommend the best locations for these outlets, ensuring the safety and well-being of your loved ones.
