A large number of homes built between the mid 1960’s and mid 1970’s were built using aluminum wiring instead of the more expensive copper wiring. Get your home’s aluminum wiring evaluated today. Aluminum wiring in homes during that era was commonly used as a cost-saving measure. Years down the road, however, unanticipated fire hazards arose from the oxidation and deterioration caused at the points where aluminum wiring was connected at outlets, light fixtures and splices. This can cause overheating and arching that won’t trip a circuit breaker, but can cause a fire. The Consumer Product Safety Commission estimates that about 2 million homes, a number of which are in Phoenix Arizona, still struggle with the aluminum wiring conundrum.
