Ting helps prevent electrical fires to keep your home and family safe.
While smoke detectors only tell you that a fire is occurring, Ting monitors the electricity in your home 30 million times every second to detect small, micro-arcs that can lead to electrical fires. If a hazard is detected, the Ting Support team will coordinate a licensed electrician to visit your home to find and fix the hazard, and you receive up to $1,000 from Ting to cover the costs of the repair!
Beyond providing peace of mind for fire safety, Ting provides detailed analysis of your home’s power, and notifications of power outages, internet outages, and power surges that can damage your sensitive, electronic devices. Over time, Ting’s machine learning algorithms will also provide important notifications on the performance of key appliances like your HVAC. Within a few minutes of opening the box, you’ll have a fitness tracker for your home protecting what matters most!

I was notified of an issue and at first I was a bit skeptical about it. So I played along with the alert and called the number and spoke to a representative who had me do a few things for troubleshooting, which I did. The next day I received a call from Omar and he explained that they were going to monitor it for a day or two and then he called me back as he said he would. He then explained that he and another electrical engineer had come to a conclusion that the problem was probably outside of the house and in the power lines or meter box and they strongly suggested to call the electric company and ask them to check it out based on the information they provided. So I did and they responded immediately and sent a troubleshooter out the next day. Which they identified the problem and then they got a crew here and dug up the buried cables and repaired the damaged lines. Omar and team were spot on with this and it didn’t cost me anything but the time without power while they fixed the compromised power lines…serious kudos!!! Turns out the cables protective coating was rubbed off by rocks with shifting ground over time as the rocks were intertwined with the cables.
