Image : Undergrounding improves neighborhoods - Safe • Attractive • Ecofriendly

There are so many great things about living in an environment without overhead power lines that it makes sense to take it into consideration when you're looking for a house. Here are some of the advantages.
  • Saving trees – Underground power lines eliminate the need to cut down or prune trees.

  • Improved air quality – More leaves mean better air.

  • Beautification – Since there's no more need for servitudes (right of access) or clearances, you can landscape to your heart's content and easily add a utility shed, swimming pool or gazebo.
And there's no need to worry about pool skimmers, tree branches and kites touching power lines!
