Houses in Powell River
Powell River has a wide spread of housing: century-old Townsite homes, post-war bungalows in Westview and Cranberry, and newer builds and rural acreages. Older houses often still have 60 A or 100 A service that was never meant to carry today's heavier electrical loads.
Winter wind and wet snow take lines down across the region every year. More households are adding a home battery so the fridge, the internet, and a few lights keep running until BC Hydro restores power.
