Ceiling Fan Installation in Los Ranchos de Albuquerque, NM
A ceiling fan is one of the cheapest ways to stay comfortable through a New Mexico summer. National Electric NM provides ceiling fan installation in Los Ranchos de Albuquerque, NM, whether you are replacing a light fixture, swapping an old fan, or adding one where there is no wiring.
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 Ranchos de Albuquerque homes use.

Local knowledge for Los Ranchos de Albuquerque, Bernalillo County
Los Ranchos de Albuquerque sits in the high desert of central New Mexico, where strong sun, wide swings between day and night temperatures, and summer monsoon lightning are hard on wiring, breakers, and outdoor equipment. Many homes here cool with evaporative coolers or have converted to refrigerated air on panels that were never sized for it.
Depending on your address, power in Bernalillo County typically comes from PNM. When a job involves the meter or the service connection, we coordinate the shutoff and reconnection with the utility.
