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