Don't Forget Your Treadmill Surge SuppressorWriten by Tim Gorman
After all the time, research, effort, and money you put into selecting your personal home treadmill, you must now do one more thing to protect your valuable investment. Dont forget to order your treadmill surge suppressor.
Almost everyone knows the importance of plugging personal computers and electronics equipment into a surge protector, but few people remember that electrical surges can cause irreparable damage to their exercise equipment, as well. After all, almost every treadmill model comes with some computerized features now-a-days.
Electrical surges typically cause damage to treadmills that costs anywhere from $200 to $400 to repair. This damage can be avoided or prevented with a treadmill surge protector. Deluxe models cost anywhere from $15 to $30, and basic models are available for under $10.
Not only will damage from electrical surges cost you money, it will also mean your treadmill will be down until you can find time to have it repaired. Sometimes this means shipping it back to the manufacturer, waiting weeks or even months, then eating the cost of the return shipping and handling as well. In the meantime, you are either missing workouts or dealing with the hassle of going to the gym the same hassle you bought your treadmill to avoid!
So when you order your treadmill, or if you already have one, do not forget to take a moment, choose a treadmill surge suppressor, and include it in your order right away. Remember an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure! It is always worthwhile to protect any investment.
