Knob and Tube Maintenance

Knob and tube wiring, common in older homes, requires specific attention to remain safe and functional. Maintenance includes inspecting the original ceramic knobs and tubes, checking for frayed wires or damaged insulation, and ensuring that the system still meets performance expectations. With age and wear, these systems may pose safety risks if not monitored regularly.

Keeping knob and tube wiring well-maintained can help homeowners avoid costly repairs and electrical failures. If your property still uses this traditional setup, proactive care is crucial. Have a licensed electrician perform routine checks and keep your home secure and up to code.
