Why Medanales properties call a local electrician
Medanales 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 Rio Arriba County often hide several generations of wiring behind thick walls.
Electric service in Rio Arriba County is typically provided by Jemez Mountains Electric Cooperative, Kit Carson Electric Cooperative, or Northern Rio Arriba Electric Cooperative. For work on the service entrance or meter, we arrange the disconnect and reconnect with them so you do not have to.
Call us for smoke detector wiring anywhere in Medanales, or in nearby Abiquiu, La Madera, Hernandez, and Alcalde.

Smoke Detector Wiring FAQs for Medanales
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 Medanales home?
Yes. We run the interconnect wiring through the attic, or use wirelessly interconnected alarms where running cable is not practical.

All of Medanales and the surrounding Rio Arriba County communities, including Abiquiu, La Madera, and Hernandez.
