Assurance Electrical Services offers lighting suggestions for your Prescott home

Lighting in a room can have a profound effect on the room’s aesthetics. Assurance Electrical Services offers some considerations for lighting your Prescott home.

Some people think of lighting only in terms of being an essential function for living. However, the right lighting in place can completely transform how a single room or entire home looks and feels. Lighting is a very important component of interior design. Whether you are redecorating a single room or giving your entire home a makeover, it is important that you give plenty of thought to lighting.

Here are some things lighting can do:

Affect the mood of a room 
People often feel happier and more positive on bright, sunny days. Likewise, lighting has been proven to have a profound effect on our moods. Many scientists believe lighting affects the changes in our emotions through the nervous and endocrine systems. The type of lighting that surrounds us can cause us to feel happy or sad. Changes in lighting can even lead to changes in behavior, mood swings and other emotional responses.

Enhance interior design 
Creative lighting will be noticed by guests who enter a well-designed interior of a home. Lighting can be used to illuminate paintings and art objects, as well as provide overall accents and ambience.

Make a small room feel larger
Most homeowners would like to decorate a small room in a way that makes it feel open and even larger than it is. One easy way to make your room feel as open and large as possible is to make some creative changes to your lighting. A room seems larger when people’s gaze is drawn upwards, as the eye will tend to move vertically, rather than horizontally. Try positioning light fixtures higher up on your walls or add some hanging lights from your ceiling. Recessed lighting works well, too.

Assurance Electrical Services hopes these lighting suggestions will inspire you. Are you considering some lighting changes in your Prescott home? Assurance Electrical Services can help you design home lighting that will suit your style.

Assurance Electrical Services talks about electrical hookup for an RV at your Prescott home

Many Prescott residents own an RV. While some have chosen to rent storage space for their RV, many homeowners park their RV at their home. This offers many benefits over traditional storage. Even if you park your RV elsewhere, you still bring your RV to your home before and after your trip, and may need to plug in to get things ready or clean up. It is important to be prepared before bringing your new “home away from home” to your “I like where I live” home. One of the most important preparations is having the right electrical hookups. Assurance Electrical Services wants you to know what it takes to get your new RV hooked up to your home power.

Dedicated Breaker
You may be tempted to use an extension cord and plug into the nearest outlet of your home. This can create many issues both for your home and your RV. The first step is to give your RV a dedicated outlet. A dedicated outlet will prevent you from overloading your home’s electrical system. Without a dedicated line, you may blow breakers in your home’s electrical panel or damage appliances that share a breaker with the RV. With the proper power requirements, you can simultaneously operate multiple appliances inside your RV. This is especially helpful right before setting off on a big trip, so you can make certain everything is in working order.

Know Your Amperage
The flip side to the electrical equation is the safety of your new RV. Your RV will have a 30 amp or 50 amp electrical system. This can be determined by checking your owners manual or by looking at the prongs on the power cord. A 3-prong connector means your RV requires 30 amp while a 4-prong means it is 50 amp. Attempting to draw too much or too little power from your home may result in blown fuses, damaged appliances, and heartache from damaging your new RV.

Having the proper electrical hookup is essential for plugging in your RV at your Prescott home. Assurance Electrical Services can send a licensed and trained electrician to get your home ready in no time. We will also let you know if your main breaker cannot handle the additional power load. If you have questions about running a dedicated breaker for your RV, or for any other electrical needs at your home or business, call us at 928-713-2177 or visit http://www.myprescottelectrician.com.
