Common Questions About Appliance & Fixture Installation
Do I need an ESA permit for outdoor electrical work?
Yes. All outdoor electrical installations in Ontario require an ESA permit. We handle the application, inspection, and documentation for every project.
How deep do outdoor electrical conduits need to be buried?
Typically, electrical conduit must be buried at least 18 inches deep, depending on the type of wiring and location. We follow Ontario Electrical Code standards for safe trenching and conduit placement.
Can I use indoor wiring or outlets outside?
No. Outdoor installations require weather-rated materials, including outdoor-rated cable, junction boxes, and outlets with proper covers.
How do I protect outdoor outlets from rain and snow?
All outdoor outlets must have in-use covers and be connected to GFCI protection to prevent shock hazards from moisture.
What type of lighting works best outdoors?
We recommend LED fixtures with sealed housings and proper IP ratings for moisture and dust resistance. Smart and motion-activated options add both safety and convenience.
Can you install power for my hot tub, sauna, or pool?
Yes. We install safe wiring for high-load outdoor equipment, including hot tubs, saunas, and pools. All connections are properly grounded and inspected.
Do outdoor electrical installations require GFCI protection?
Yes. Any outlet, light, or circuit exposed to the elements must be protected by a GFCI breaker or receptacle to ensure safety.
How long does it take to install outdoor lighting or outlets?
Most small projects take one day or less. Larger jobs involving trenching or multiple zones of lighting may take two to three days, depending on site conditions.
