Aluminum-era wiring
Homes from the middle of the build period onward may contain aluminum branch wiring, worth identifying before renovation.
Original homes, rebuilt infill and multi-residential buildings sit together here, so the electrical system varies more than the street would suggest.
ElectricMan covers aluminum wiring assessment, panel and service upgrades, infill and renovation wiring, condo work and EV charging. Call 403-978-0046 or request service online to discuss your project.
