Upgrade to LED Lighting
Did you know switching to light-emitting diode (LED) light bulbs can help you save on energy expenses? LED lights use 75 percent less energy than incandescent bulbs, according to the Department of Energy.
Indoor Lighting
First Rate Plumbing Heating and Cooling Inc can install lighting that is perfectly tailored to your home. Choose from elegant designs that complement your living space and offer convenient controls.
Switches
There’s more than one way to turn on a light—find a switch that fits your lighting requirements.
Switch types include:
- Single, double, three-way, and four-way pole switches: These are the classic light switches you flick on and off. You can control multiple lights with double, three-way, and four-way configurations.
- Dimmer switches: Want to set the mood? You can control brightness levels with a rotary knob or slider.
- Occupancy sensors: These are great energy savers—a motion sensor activates the lights when a room is in use. When it’s empty, the lights shut off automatically.
- Smart switches: Control your lighting remotely with a smartphone or voice command via a Wi-Fi connection. Alternatively, you may choose to set up automated lighting cycles to cut down on your electricity consumption.
Fixtures
Looking for fixtures to complete your interior? Let our team of certified electricians give your home a makeover.
We install quality indoor lighting fixtures, including:
- Ceiling mounts: These are traditional lights that hang from the ceiling and get covered by shades.
- Recessed fixtures: These fixtures require a hole where the light bulb sits. The hole is covered with a sheet of glass or plastic so it’s flush with the ceiling.
- Chandeliers: These large and stylish hanging fixtures add elegance to any room.
- Track lighting: This is a rail of lights you can position individually by hand.
- Architectural and accent lighting: These lights create visual interest by emphasizing architectural features, paintings, and more. They hang on the wall or can be tucked into ceiling edges, ledges, or behind shelves.
Outdoor Lighting
Let our certified electricians hook up the perfect outdoor lighting setup for your New Mexico home. Whether you need a well-lit front porch for when the kids come home or a decked-out backyard for hosting dinner parties, we can help you find the perfect solution.
Pathway Lights
It’s much easier to see where you’re going at night with pathway lights. Plus, it’s a great way to spruce up your yard.
Find the type that works for your home, including:
- Solar LEDs
- Garden lighting
- Flush lighting
- Bollard lighting
- Downlights
Outdoor Wall Lighting
Wall lights brighten up porches, patios, and other outdoor common areas. They are an efficient, typically low-voltage option for improving visibility and style.
You can choose from many design options, including:
- Lanterns
- Sconces
- Barn lights
- Washers
- Faux candle
Security Lighting
A well-lit yard keeps your family safe and deters burglars. Outdoor security lighting can be activated by a motion sensor, a timer, or configured with your home automation system. First Rate Plumbing Heating and Cooling Inc is pleased to offer custom security lighting solutions that protect your property. Lighting options include the following:
- Continuous lighting: This is the classic option. These lights stay on continuously, illuminating your property all night.
- Standby lighting: These lights turn on as needed, either motion-activated or set to a timer. They help cut down on electricity costs. Additionally, the motion sensor feature can help you stay alert.

Customer Reviews
November 3, 2026
The communication about my service appointment was prompt. My technician, Raymond, was professional, polite and patient as he explained every step of the work that was happening and what I may need to focus on for future visits. He showed pictures of his work and was helpful with any questions that I had. Based on his work and my overall experience, I signed up to be a member and get bi-annual maintenance done.

I had a mystery water leak in my yard, could have been anything, but turned out to be in an irrigation line. Saul could have told me it was anything, could have made something up, but instead he was HONEST, diagnosed the issue quickly and told me what to do next. So happy. The communication was great, they even sent me a picture of Saul so I would know who to expect, amazing!

Ray did a great job on the winter service for my two heat pumps. I have used First Rate since 2022 for maintenance and installation. The company is solid and honest, and Ray is a great example of their excellent customer service. He is very knowledgable, worked efficiently, and was really good with my dog too.

Patrick installed my kitchen faucet and gave me an estimate for replacing the water heater. He provided me with a lot of information about the water heater and the HVAC, which I very much appreciated. I have a clearer picture going forward for what I need to accomplish.
