Smoke Detector Wiring for Datil homes and businesses
Around Datil, properties are spread out and electrical systems work hard: wells, heat, shops, and outbuildings a long way from the meter. Cold winters and dry, windy springs take their toll on outdoor wiring and connections.
Electric service in Catron County is typically provided by your local utility or rural electric cooperative. For work on the service entrance or meter, we arrange the disconnect and reconnect with them so you do not have to.
Our smoke detector wiring covers all of Datil, along with neighboring Pie Town, Aragon, Magdalena, and Quemado.

Smoke Detector Wiring FAQs for Datil
Are hardwired smoke detectors better?
Yes. They run on house power with a battery backup, and when interconnected, every alarm sounds together, which gives more warning.
How often should smoke detectors be replaced?
Every ten years. The manufacture date is printed on the back.
Can you add hardwired alarms to an older Datil home?
Yes. We run the interconnect wiring through the attic, or use wirelessly interconnected alarms where running cable is not practical.
Which areas around Datil do you cover for smoke detector wiring?
All of Datil and the surrounding Catron County communities, including Pie Town, Aragon, and Magdalena.
