Practical electrical advice from licensed Las Vegas electricians - wiring, safety, and upgrades for Las Vegas & Henderson homes.
These days everybody in the family has a “device” - and regularly charging our devices has become as much a part of life as brushing our teeth or cooking dinner. As a result, USB charging ports are becoming as common and necessary as regular electrical outlets in today’s newer homes.
The extreme temperatures we experience in Las Vegas means a big jump in our electric bills during the summer months. That’s especially true for homes that are poorly insulated and don’t take common-sense energy saving measures to reduce costs. Here are some unique ways to lower your power bill.
American consumers who are trying to decide whether buying an Electric Vehicle makes sense for themselves and their families have heard a few very general facts from news reports - for example, that EV's save money, or that they reduce carbon emissions and slow the progression of global warming.
When it comes to outdated or damaged electric wiring, everything is hidden out of sight. Ironically, electricity is one of the most powerful and potentially dangerous factors of a home’s composition; and for far too many people, “out of sight, out of mind” creates the perfect scenario for dangerous electrical fires.

Electrical fires are among the most deadly fires faced by U.S. residents. Landlords are responsible for the personal safety of tenants. They rely on you to keep your buildings’ electrical systems safe, up-to-date, and well-maintained, and the law doesn’t just depend on your attention to the matter - it demands it!
Does your Las Vegas home include a detached garage, a shed, or perhaps a separate building that you use as a studio or a workshop? If you’re getting by with extension cords run from the house to the building, you should be aware that you’re violating Nevada’s strict building codes, and creating a dangerous situation.
Unfortunately, many Las Vegas homeowners don’t realize just how much they can improve their home’s appearance and functionality by upgrading their lighting fixtures. By just adding a few simple lighting upgrades, you can significantly increase the value of your home, besides make it more functional.
Today’s Las Vegas homes combine the ingenuity of materials and techniques originally conceived by Native Americans, with modern technology such as air conditioning and ceiling fans. It’s this wise combination of old and new that make desert homes comfortable even in the harsh environment of summer in Southern Nevada.
