Had the aluminum wiring in our home remediated with COPALUM connectors. Insurance required it. They were the most knowledgeable about this specific electrical issue. (Phoenix)

Our house is from the 70s and had some aluminum wiring. Rip Current Electric pigtailed the connections with copper at every outlet. Huge safety improvement. Peace of mind.
