Bathroom Electrical in Animas, NM

Bathrooms combine water, steam, and electricity in a small space, so the wiring has to be right. National Electric NM handles bathroom electrical in Animas, NM: GFCI outlets, exhaust fans, vanity and shower lighting, and circuits for heated floors.

Bathroom electrical work

Bathroom outlets need GFCI protection and a 20 amp circuit, and fixtures over tubs and showers must be rated for the location. Many older Animas bathrooms have no exhaust fan at all, or one that vents into the attic. We vent fans properly to the outside.

Bathroom Electrical for Animas homes and businesses

The Chihuahuan Desert climate around Animas means months of high cooling loads, intense sun, and dramatic late-summer storms. Many homes in Hidalgo County are converting from evaporative cooling to refrigerated air, which usually calls for a new 240 volt circuit and sometimes a larger panel.

Electric service in Hidalgo County is typically provided by PNM or Columbus Electric Cooperative. For work on the service entrance or meter, we arrange the disconnect and reconnect with them so you do not have to.

We provide bathroom electrical work throughout Animas and in nearby Playas, Hachita, Rodeo, and Lordsburg.

Bathroom Electrical FAQs for Animas

Why does my hair dryer trip the breaker?

The bathroom is probably sharing a 15 amp circuit with other rooms. A dedicated 20 amp bathroom circuit fixes it.

Can a light go inside the shower?

Yes, with a fixture rated for wet locations. We install shower-rated recessed lights.

Do you install bathroom exhaust fans?

Yes, including new ducting to the outside and quiet models with humidity sensors.
