Bathroom Electrical in Vallecitos, 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 Vallecitos, 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 Vallecitos bathrooms have no exhaust fan at all, or one that vents into the attic. We vent fans properly to the outside.

Why Vallecitos properties call a local electrician
In the high country around Vallecitos, electrical systems have to handle freezing winters, summer thunderstorms, and long rural service runs. Thick adobe walls and historic construction make wiring work slower and call for careful planning.
Most properties in Rio Arriba County get their electricity from Jemez Mountains Electric Cooperative, Kit Carson Electric Cooperative, or Northern Rio Arriba Electric Cooperative. If your project touches the meter or main service, we handle the scheduling with the utility.
