When you live in Florida, hurricane season isn’t just something to watch – it’s something to plan for. This is why Edison Insurance Company has been preparing for months behind the scenes, long before the peak of the season arrives.
From technology upgrades to on-the-ground support after a storm, here's how Florida home insurers prepare for hurricane season – and what Edison is doing to help protect your home when it matters most.
1. Strengthening Our Reinsurance Strategy
At Edison, one of the most important things we can do is make sure we have the financial strength to pay claims quickly and fairly. It’s why we’ve invested in a carefully layered reinsurance strategy designed to help us withstand even the most active hurricane season.
Our reinsurance partnerships are thoroughly vetted and diversified, giving you peace of mind your coverage will hold up – even when the weather doesn’t. This is one more example of how Florida home insurers prepare for hurricane season behind the scenes.
2. Building a Rapid-Response Catastrophe Team
In the aftermath of a hurricane, getting help fast matters. It’s why Edison’s catastrophe response plans include boots-on-the-ground support, with a mobile unit ready to deploy to hard-hit communities.
You may even see one of our team members at a state-sponsored Insurance Village, helping homeowners file claims face-to-face. Our RV-based mobile center is equipped to connect you with live claims support, answer questions, and get your recovery started as quickly as possible.
