Warranty and good customer service

Surge Guard (TRC) one year

Progessive lifetime
Is it time for your medication or mine?

should you decide to get a surge protector, I believe the Progressive Industries SSP-30 is hard to beat .... it is a reasonably priced, extremely well built unit that comes with a lifetime warranty

If you are going to cheap out why bother!
Get this one for best all round protection and it has a 'Lifetime Warranty' which Progressive actually honors.

They make a portable model with same features IF you don't have an easy accessible spot to install hardwired one.
Also have an optional remote display for the hardwired version...hardwired with remote kit cheaper than portable.

Others have a limited warranty and disclaimers/exclusions.
Is it time for your medication or mine?
