Residential · Commercial · IndustrialHaysville borders Wichita on the south, along Broadway and Meridian. On May 3, 1999, a tornado struck Haysville and south Wichita, destroying homes and much of the old downtown. That was the same year Electri-Tech, Inc. was founded in Wichita.
Haysville’s homes are a mix: older houses near the historic core, ranch homes from the 1950s through the 1970s, homes rebuilt after 1999, and newer subdivisions on the edges. The electrical needs vary just as much, from replacing an original panel to wiring an addition or a shop.
Electri-Tech serves Haysville from its Wichita shop.

What we see in Haysville homes
Original panels and fuse boxes
Older homes may still have fuses or a first-generation breaker panel that is full.
Too few outlets
Older rooms have one or two outlets, and extension cords are a sign the house needs more circuits.
Shops and garages
Detached garages and shops need a properly sized feeder and a subpanel.
Weatherheads and service masts
Wind and age take a toll on overhead service entrances. Weatherhead replacement is a common repair.

What is a weatherhead and when does it need replacing?
The weatherhead is the hooded fitting at the top of the service mast where the utility’s overhead wires enter your service. It keeps rain out of the conduit.
Replace it if it’s cracked, missing, pulled away from the house, or if the mast is bent from a storm or a fallen limb. That’s work for a licensed electrician coordinating with the utility. Never touch the service drop wires.
Can you run power to a detached shop in Haysville?
Yes. A detached shop or garage usually gets an underground feeder to a subpanel, sized for the tools, heater, welder or lift you plan to run.
The feeder size, burial depth and grounding are set by code, and the job needs a permit. Electri-Tech can plan and install it.
