Big News — We’re Growing!

Hi Cumberland and surrounding areas,

We’re on the hunt for a NEW HOME — and this time it’s BIG. We’re looking for a space where our business can continue to grow and thrive.

What we’re looking for:
• A shop/office space
• Must have electricity and heat (or the ability to install it)
• Located in Cumberland, Orléans, or Navan

Do you know someone with a shop or commercial space just sitting empty collecting dust? Maybe a building with potential that hasn’t found its perfect match yet?

We would love to hear about it. Please send us a message or tag someone who might be able to help. We are open to all suggestions.

💡 Still using incandescent bulbs? They’re quietly burning your money.

If your home has about 40 lights running just 5 hours a day, incandescent bulbs cost you over $570 per year in electricity.
Switching to LED drops that to about $95 per year.

That’s nearly $500 in savings every single year — just by changing light bulbs.

LEDs use over 80% less energy, last up to 25 times longer, and run much cooler, making them safer for your home and easier on your electrical system.

At STL Electric, we don’t just swap bulbs — we help homeowners upgrade to efficient, high-quality lighting that looks better, costs less, and pays for itself fast.

✅ Lower power bills
✅ Brighter, cleaner light
✅ Fewer bulb changes
✅ Safer, cooler operation

One simple upgrade. Real savings. Every year.

📞 Call STL Electric today and start saving on your lighting.

⚡ Aluminum vs Copper Wiring — What’s the Difference? ⚡

When it comes to electrical wiring in your home, the material matters more than most people realize. Here’s a quick breakdown:

🔶 Copper Wiring
✅ Stronger and more durable
✅ Better conductor of electricity
✅ Less likely to loosen or overheat
✅ Long lifespan with fewer risks
❌ Higher cost

🔷 Aluminum Wiring (common in homes built 1965–1975)
✅ Cheaper material
❌ Expands and contracts more than copper
❌ Higher risk of loose connections
❌ More prone to overheating and fire hazards if not properly maintained

🚨 Why it matters:
Homes with aluminum wiring can be perfectly safe if properly upgraded with approved connectors (COPALUM or AlumiConn) and inspected by a licensed electrician. Improper connections are where the danger comes from.

💡 Our recommendation:
If your home has aluminum wiring, don’t panic — but don’t ignore it. A professional inspection can tell you if your system needs upgrading or remediation.
