If you must use your hair dryer in the bathroom, install a GFCI
now! Your local electrician can help you decide which type is
best for you – a portable unit that plugs into the electrical outlet
or a permanent unit installed by your electrician. The National
Electrical Code now requires GFCIs in the bathroom, garages
and outdoor outlets of all new homes.
Why do you need a GFCI?
Electricity and water don’t mix. If your
hair dryer falls into water while the
dryer is plugged in, the electric shock
can kill you, EVEN IF THE SWITCH IS
“OFF”.
A regular fuse or circuit breaker
won’t protect you under these
circumstances. A GFCI offers you far
greater protection.
A GFCI can save your life! Compared to that, the price is
small!
Don’t wait…Install one now!
* GFCI is a sensitive device which reacts immediately to a small
electric current leak by stopping the electricity flow.
