Ceiling Fan Installation in Los Alamos, NM
Our electricians install ceiling fans in Los Alamos 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 Los Alamos homes use.
