Licensed 200-amp panel upgrades and breaker box replacement for East Liverpool homes — permits, inspection, and the wiring handled by one local team.
If your East Liverpool home still runs on a 100-amp panel or an old fuse box, it's probably out of room — and out of safety margin — for central air, a heat pump, an EV charger, or a standby generator. AK Heating & Cooling is a licensed Ohio electrical contractor (#38179): we upgrade you to 200-amp service, replace failing panels, and pull the permits so the work meets code. Because we also do the HVAC and generators, we can size the panel for what you're adding in the same project.
A lot of East Liverpool homes were wired before modern electrical demand existed — knob-and-tube, early aluminum branch runs, cloth-insulated conductors, and 60-to-100-amp panels that were never meant for central air, an EV charger, or a standby generator. That older wiring is both a safety issue and, increasingly, an insurance problem — and it's the backdrop most of our East Liverpool electrical work starts from.
The same NE Ohio storms and hard freezes that stress heating equipment also knock the grid down and push surges back through home wiring. That's why panel condition, whole-house surge protection, and generator-ready service matter as much in East Liverpool as the furnace does — and why we handle the electrical side in-house instead of subbing it out.

“Furnace went out on a Sunday night. AK had a tech in the driveway in 90 minutes, parts on the truck, and we were warm before kids' bedtime. Worth every dollar of the maintenance plan.”
“Our restaurant walk-in went down at 6am. AK answered the after-hours line on the second ring and had us running before lunch service. We've switched all of our refrigeration work to them.”
“Had Generac install, AC tune-up, and a humidifier swap done across two visits. One bill, one company, real techs. This is what local service is supposed to feel like.”
Common signs are breakers that trip often, lights that dim when big appliances start, a panel that still uses fuses, or any plan to add central air, a heat pump, an EV charger, or a generator to a 100-amp service. We do an in-home check and tell you honestly whether you need an upgrade or just a repair.
