...CAN SAVE A LIFE!

IF YOU MUST USE YOUR WAVER 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

Safety warning symbol showing a power outlet above water with no text or symbols

MIX. If your waver 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.
