Ceiling Fan Installation in Las Cruces, NM

Our electricians install ceiling fans in Las Cruces bedrooms, living rooms, vaulted great rooms, and covered patios, mounted securely so they run quietly without wobble.

Ceiling fan services

A fan must hang from a box rated to support it. An ordinary light fixture box is not. We install fan-rated boxes and bracing, use downrods sized for the ceiling height, and balance the fan before we leave. Ceiling fans also work well alongside the evaporative coolers many Las Cruces homes use.

Why Las Cruces properties call a local electrician

The Chihuahuan Desert climate around Las Cruces means months of high cooling loads, intense sun, and dramatic late-summer storms. Many homes in Dona Ana 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 Dona Ana County is typically provided by El Paso Electric. For work on the service entrance or meter, we arrange the disconnect and reconnect with them so you do not have to.

Ceiling Fan Installation FAQs for Las Cruces

Can a ceiling fan go where a light is now?

Yes, once the box is replaced with one rated for fan support. We do that as part of the installation.

How long does ceiling fan installation take?

About one to two hours for a standard replacement. New wiring or very high ceilings take longer.

Do I need a separate switch for the fan and light?

It is optional. We can add a second switch if the wiring allows, or use a remote or smart control.
