IF YOU MUST USE YOR HAIR
DRYER IN THE BATHROOM,
INSTALLA 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,
garage, and
outdoor outlet
of all new
homes.
WHY DO YOU NEED A GFCI?
Electricity and water don’t mix! If
your hair dryer falls in water
while it 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. AGFCI 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.
