Ceiling Fan and Lighting Installation in Waxhaw, NC
Touchstone Electric completed a multi-room upgrade for RHODES BUILDERS in Waxhaw, NC, handled by our Charlotte branch and dispatched from our Matthews team. On 09/23/2025, technician Will Cruz installed new ceiling fans, low-profile wafer can lights, bathroom exhaust fans with digital timers, dedicated wiring, and code-conscious outlet upgrades to improve comfort, ventilation, and safety throughout the home.
This project combined several services from our Lighting & Ceiling Fans and Ceiling Fan Installation categories, delivering a single coordinated solution that looks great and performs reliably.
What We Installed
- 4 Ceiling Fans — Three upstairs and one downstairs, installed on existing boxes/circuits. The new fans provide year‑round comfort and improved air circulation while keeping a clean, balanced look from room to room.
- 4 Wafer Can Lights — Low-profile LED wafer fixtures installed for sleek, even illumination. These ultra-thin lights are ideal where ceiling space is limited and are designed for long life and minimal maintenance.
- 2 Bathroom Exhaust Fans + Digital Timers — We removed the old housings, adjusted openings, reworked the duct connections, and tied into the existing power. Each fan is paired with a programmable digital timer to help control run time, reduce humidity, and protect finishes—perfect for the upstairs twin bathroom.
- Digital Timer Features — Programmable schedules, automatic Daylight Saving Time adjustment, and a helpful “random” mode for lived‑in lighting when away.
- Switches and Controls — Six standard light switches were installed or replaced to give dependable control across the updated spaces.
- Outlet Upgrades — Two GFCI outlets for added shock protection in moisture‑prone areas, plus two standard receptacles where general power was needed.
- Dedicated Wiring — New runs included 25 ft of 18/4 low‑voltage cable, 60 ft of NM‑B 12/2, and 120 ft of NM‑B 14/2 to support the added fans, lighting, and controls neatly and safely.
- 1 Under‑Cabinet Light Transformer — Transformer installed to support under‑cabinet lighting components.
- 1 Standard 20A Breaker — Installed as required for the scope and distribution needs of the project.
Project Highlights for Waxhaw Homeowners
