Smart Home Wiring for Arroyo Hondo homes and businesses

Arroyo Hondo is in New Mexico's high country. Long heating seasons, snow, and winter storms put steady demand on electrical systems and make outages more than an inconvenience. Older adobe and territorial-style buildings in Taos County often hide several generations of wiring behind thick walls.

Depending on your address, power in Taos County typically comes from Kit Carson Electric Cooperative. When a job involves the meter or the service connection, we coordinate the shutoff and reconnection with the utility.

We provide smart home wiring throughout Arroyo Hondo and in nearby Arroyo Seco, San Cristobal, Valdez, and El Prado.

Smart Home Wiring FAQs for Arroyo Hondo

Do smart switches work without a neutral wire?

Some models do, with limits. The most reliable fix is to add a neutral to the switch box, which we can do.

Can you install devices I already bought?

Yes. We install customer-supplied smart devices and help with the initial setup.

Do I need a hub?

It depends on the products. Many work over Wi-Fi alone; larger systems are more reliable with a hub. We can advise based on what you want to control.
