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

Bathroom Electrical for Tohatchi homes and businesses
Northwest New Mexico's plateau country brings freezing winter nights, spring wind, and summer lightning. Around Tohatchi, that means voltage drop on long feeders, weathered outdoor equipment, and electrical systems that have been added onto over the years.
Electric service in McKinley County is typically provided by the City of Gallup, Continental Divide Electric Cooperative, or the Navajo Tribal Utility Authority. For work on the service entrance or meter, we arrange the disconnect and reconnect with them so you do not have to.
