IF YOU MUST USE YOUR 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 permanent
unit installed by your electrician. The National Electrical Code now requires
GFCI’s 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 in the water while it’s
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.
