Electrical Panel Upgrades

Why Upgrade Your Electrical Panel?

Sometimes old and outdated panels can't handle the technology of day. Here are a few reasons you may want to upgrade your electrical panel.

You're Adding Major Equipment

Heat pumps, electric vehicle chargers, and whole-home generators require significant electrical capacity. We ensure your panel can safely handle the load.

Your Panel is Outdated

Homes with fuse boxes instead of circuit breakers, 60 or 100-amp service (modern homes need 200+ amps), Federal Pacific or Zinsco panels (known safety hazards), or aluminum wiring compatibility issues.

You Experience Electrical Issues

Frequently tripping breakers, lights dimming when appliances start, burning smell from panel, buzzing or crackling sounds, warm panel cover, rust or corrosion.

Panel Upgrades for Heat Pump Installs

As part of our heat pump installation process, we test voltage at your panel, calculate electrical load requirements, determine if an upgrade is needed, and include all electrical work in your project quote. No surprise charges.

Theses guys were attentive, knowledgeable and very affordable. They came by almost immediately when my pilot light went out. They were personable, professional and super quick to get quote and schedule a replacement and install. All happened within a matter of days. Other bigger companies took days to respond and came in double the price. I’d hire bay state again in a heartbeat

Excellent service. Our HVAC system broke beyond repair and we needed a new one. After getting a few quotes of $10,000+ from other companies, Jay inform us that we could go through Mass Save to hopefully get some help paying for it. He helped us through the entire process and we ended up getting an entire new system completely free. They installed it in a days work and we couldn’t be happier! Highly recommend!
