Circuit Panel Upgrade or Heavy Up Additions
A heavy-up circuit is a type of electrical circuit that is designed to handle a higher electrical load than a standard electrical circuit. This is typically achieved by increasing the size of the conductors and equipment used in the circuit, such as the wires, switches, and breakers. Heavy-up circuits are used in home-based businesses or for home hobbyists where there is a need for a large amount of electrical power to support machinery, lighting, or other high-demand equipment. The term "heavy-up" refers to the process of upgrading an existing electrical circuit to handle a higher electrical load.
Circuit panels may need an upgrade because they're outdated, don't have enough circuits, or you've done an addition or added additional features to your home that require more circuits. Installing a pool or hot tub are just 2 examples of upgrades that might require an update to your circuit panel. We also install circuit panels for new construction of Additional Dwelling Units (ADUs) and other residential buildings.
Dedicated circuits
There are other reasons to have a dedicated circuit besides the electric car charger mentioned above. You may be installing a pool or hot tub that requires its own circuit for safety or code requirements. If you've noticed issues like a hot tub plug getting hot, it could be a sign that your current setup isn’t handling the load safely. .You may be running power down to your outbuildings, or adding air conditioning or an electric stove to your home where you had none previously. There are a variety of reasons you may need a dedicated circuit - our team of licensed electricians near you can help you make the need a reality!

For this job, I came out for our annual maintenance inspection. Everything in the panel, grounding system and devices looked great as they were recently updated. However, I did notice the AC circuit was originally ran in a type of cable that deteriorates over and is not outdoor rated. Additionally, there was a loose 3-gang switch bank in the basement that I replaced. Scheduled to return for AC circuit and Disconnect replacement Friday, March 20. Pull new 40A A/C circuit in UF wiring as the existing wiring is old, deteriorating and not rated for outdoor use. Replace A/C disconnect and AC whip Replace (1) loose 3 gang box for switch bank on lower level
The reason for today’s visit was to assess power loss to kitchen receptacles. Today we found that the breaker feeding half of the kitchen had went bad. We opened the panel. We noticed that there were signs of water damage that had happened in the panel. We provided an option to replace the breaker as well as to replace the entire panel. We’re checking the receptacles. We noticed that they were all still the original 1987, which were all backstabbed. Highly recommend replacing the devices to avoid future power loss issues.
For today’s visit, we were called out to look at a few different issues throughout the home involving damaged receptacles/power loss. When we arrived, we started at the kitchen where the homeowner informed us that the toaster/toaster over & kettle they have plugged into the kitchen circuit were tripping the GFCI’s on the counter. I opened up the devices on the kitchen circuit(s) and found loose/backstabbed connections. As I continued my assessment, we continued to the downstairs bedroom, which had two damaged receptacles (devices falling apart) as well as more backstabbed connections throughout the circuit. The closet light in said bedroom was intermittently flickering, I found the cause to be the receptacle to the left of the closet intermittently losing connection and causing power interruption to the closet light fixture. There is also a loose receptacle in the upstairs bedroom that needs to be replaced that the homeowner made me aware of as well. Overall, the home should have a w
Ian was awesome!
For this job, I came out for a needed Water Heater circuit. However the original circuit was converted years ago to a 20A 120V from a 30A 240V for the furnace. His existing panel is original to the home and is full of tandems, which the panel is not rated for. He in recent years had an ATS installed and and whole home generator. I estimated a straight up panel swap to a 40 space 200 A panel and a dedicated 30A 240V circuit.
03/11/2026 Completed the first estimated work with the sub panel installation, breaker replacement and surge protector installation. Additionally, I noticed both AC breakers were oversized based on the name plate, so I replaced those as well. For this job, we came out to look at panel that was full, had multiple tandem breakers, of which the panel is not rated for, improperly terminated multiwire branch circuits and no surge protection. Panel in good shape otherwise, as the main ground electrode system, cold water bond and service cable were all updated within the last year. We suggested the installation of a sub panel next to the main to create space to get rid of the unrated tandems, remediate improperly wired multi wire branch circuits as well as install a whole home surge protector. Customer moved forward with our suggestion, declining the VIP Care Plan. Scheduled for Wednesday, March 11th. Install 60A sub panel off the main panel Move (8) branch circuits over to panel fro

Professional and knowledgeable
Yes, I was very satisfied with the service on yesterday. Nick did a phenomenal job with servicing the electrical problem and sharing knowledgeable information for future references. I definitely would use the service again.
Dennis succeeded in promptly troubleshooting and identifying the cause of our electrical issue. He then repaired the faulty outlet, while explaining why it occurred.
We had a major panel replacement an upgrade that took three days. Josh and Tyler were thorough, professional and a pleasure to work with. They made sure everything was done properly and cleaned up after all the work was completed. They stayed very late on the third day to make sure the house had power everywhere. We would definitely use Haas again for electrical work.
Very meticulous and thorough. Fast service.
Dennis was great and so was his team. They were here for two days and worked so hard. They did a great job. I highly recommend these electricians.
Michael was on time and helpful with a small and obnoxious problem of a lithium battery pack dying before its time. Gave us a heads up about anything else that may happen with the smoke detectors
