Electrical FAQs

What is the benefit of whole-house surge protection?

Whole-house surge protection helps protect appliances, electronics, and electrical equipment from damaging voltage spikes caused by lightning, utility problems, and sudden changes in electrical demand.

What is a GFCI outlet?

A ground fault circuit interrupter, or GFCI, is designed to reduce the risk of electric shock by quickly shutting off power when it detects an electrical imbalance. GFCI outlets are commonly required in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, basements, and outdoor areas where electricity may come into contact with water.

Why is my electric bill so high?

High electricity costs may be caused by inefficient appliances, aging HVAC equipment, damaged wiring, or electrical devices that use power even when they are not actively being used. FLAME Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electrical can inspect your home and recommend ways to improve energy efficiency.

How often should I have my electrical system inspected?

Most homeowners should schedule an electrical inspection every three to five years. You may need an inspection sooner if you have an older home, frequently tripped breakers, flickering lights, warm outlets, or plans for a major renovation.

What electrical problems require emergency service in Metro Detroit?

Sparking outlets, burning odors, buzzing electrical panels, exposed wiring, repeated breaker trips, and outlets that feel hot can indicate a serious safety hazard. Homeowners in Detroit and the surrounding Metro Detroit area should turn off power when it is safe to do so and contact a licensed electrician immediately.

Why do the lights in my Detroit-area home flicker or dim?

Occasional flickering may be caused by a loose bulb, but frequent flickering or dimming can indicate loose wiring, an overloaded circuit, or a problem with the electrical panel. A licensed FLAME electrician can identify the cause and recommend the proper electrical repair.

When should I replace or upgrade my electrical panel?

You may need an electrical panel upgrade if your home still has a fuse box, breakers trip frequently, the panel shows signs of corrosion or overheating, or the system cannot support modern appliances. Panel upgrades may also be needed before installing an EV charger, generator, or major electrical equipment.

Does FLAME install home generators in Detroit and Ann Arbor?

Yes. FLAME provides home generator installation, replacement, repair, and maintenance throughout Detroit, Ann Arbor, and surrounding communities. A properly sized generator can keep essential systems operating during outages caused by storms and utility disruptions.

Can an EV charger be installed in an older Metro Detroit home?

In many cases, yes. Before installing an EV charger, an electrician will evaluate the home’s electrical panel, available capacity, wiring, and charging requirements. Older homes in Wayne, Oakland, Macomb, Washtenaw, and St. Clair counties may require a dedicated circuit or panel upgrade.

What areas does FLAME serve for residential electrical work?

FLAME provides residential electrical installation, repair, inspection, and emergency services throughout Detroit, Ann Arbor, and the surrounding Metro Detroit region. The service area includes communities across Wayne, Oakland, Macomb, Washtenaw, and St. Clair counties.
