Frequently Asked Questions

Where should GFCI outlets be installed?

According to Tucson's local electrical codes, GFCI outlets should be installed in all kitchen counters, bathrooms, laundry rooms, garages, and any outdoor locations. These areas are more prone to moisture, which increases the risk of electrical hazards. At The Solar Store, we ensure your home or business complies with these regulations for optimal safety and functionality. During our consultation, we assess each space's unique requirements, ensuring comprehensive coverage and safety. We also educate homeowners on potential overlooked spots where a GFCI outlet could be beneficial, such as near utility sinks or outdoor water features, further closing any safety gaps. Our detailed approach ensures a holistic safety strategy tailored to your property's specific layout.

How long does it take to install a GFCI outlet?

The time required to install a GFCI outlet typically depends on the specifics of your electrical system and the location of the installation. Generally, a single outlet installation may take about 30 minutes to an hour. Our experienced team ensures the process is swift and minimally disruptive, allowing you to enjoy enhanced safety in no time. We conduct a preliminary assessment to flag any potential challenges that might delay the process, ensuring efficient completion during the actual installation. Moreover, for larger projects involving multiple outlets, we provide a timeline in advance, so you're aware of how long each phase will take. Our clients often appreciate our efficiency coupled with our commitment to quality, underscoring our dependable service.

Can I install a GFCI outlet myself?

While it may be tempting to handle electrical work independently, it is strongly advised to hire a professional for GFCI outlet wiring in Tucson. Incorrect installation can lead to serious electrical issues, including increased risk of shocks and fire. Our NABCEP-certified technicians at The Solar Store deliver installations that adhere to local codes, ensuring safety and reliability. Attempting a DIY installation not only risks personal safety but may also void warranties or violate insurance terms. We often meet clients who began installations themselves and encountered unforeseen complexities, emphasizing the importance of professional intervention from the start. Opting for professional service adds value and reliability to your home's electrical framework, guaranteeing thorough inspections and appropriate adjustments as needed.

How do I test my GFCI outlets?

Testing your GFCI outlets is crucial to ensure they function correctly. Press the 'test' button on the outlet; if the 'reset' button pops out, the GFCI is working correctly. To restore power, press the 'reset' button. If it doesn't pop out upon testing or fails to reset, it's time to call in professional help to examine the outlet. We recommend regular testing at least once a month to ensure continued functionality, especially after power outages or significant electrical events. Our team can also schedule regular maintenance visits, where we test and calibrate your GFCI outlets, ensuring they remain in peak condition. Educating homeowners on these aspects forms part of our service commitment, fostering informed and proactive electrical safety practices.

    "Five stars!"
    We have loved our Solar Tubes for the last 10 years! They make a huge difference in the mood of our 108 year old house. Now, we love something else about The Solar Store: incredible service! We recently had our house reroofed, and the roofers knocked one of the tubes loose and it fell down into our kitchen. We discovered the damage at night and I called The Solar Store, thinking I would leave a message and someone would call me back sooner or later. But the owner of the store answered right away! She had a repair person out first thing in the morning. They worked with the roofers, and fixed the damage. Not only that, but The Solar Store workers left our kitchen counters cleaner than we left them! Five stars!
    - Janet K. Miller
    "The solar pool heater we purchased from The Solar Store has worked very well. We no longer rely on only the sun shining on the pool to warm the water. This has been a great investment for us and we highly recommend it."
