TL;DR: Need an outlet, switch, or GFCI installed in NWA? Franklin handles single-device swaps and whole-house overhauls — interior outlets, outdoor weatherproof outlets, garage and attic outlets, GFCI/AFCI swaps, USB outlets, smart switches, dimmers, 3-way switches, and 240V circuits. Most outlet adds in NWA run $150–$400 depending on access. For straight installs, our office can quote you over the phone for free — no visit needed; that pricing covers the install only, not diagnostic or repair work.

Outlet types we install in NWA

Some are quick swaps. Some need a new circuit pulled all the way back to the panel. We do all of it.

1. Standard interior outlet add. A new duplex outlet on the same wall or near an existing one. Usually a same-day, $150–$250 install if there’s easy access through the attic or crawlspace.

2. Outdoor weatherproof outlet. Code requires an in-use (bubble) cover and GFCI protection. Common requests: front porch, back patio, holiday lighting, and pool/spa areas.

3. Garage outlet. Code now requires GFCI protection in garages and a dedicated circuit for refrigerators or freezers in unfinished spaces.

4. Attic outlet. Useful for attic fans, antennas, or holiday-light controllers. Quick install if there’s a junction nearby.

5. GFCI swap. Replacing a regular outlet in a kitchen, bathroom, garage, basement, laundry, or outdoor location with a GFCI device. Required by code in those areas.

6. AFCI swap. Replacing a regular outlet or breaker with an AFCI device. Required by code in bedrooms and most living spaces.

7. USB outlet. Outlet with built-in USB-A or USB-C charging. Popular near nightstands, kitchens, and home offices.

8. Smart outlet. Wi-Fi or Z-Wave outlets that integrate with Alexa, Google Home, or Apple HomeKit.

9. Tamper-resistant outlet. Code-required for new construction; recommended in homes with small kids.

10. 240V outlets. For electric dryers, ranges, hot tubs, welders, and EV chargers. Requires a dedicated circuit and the right breaker size.

Switch types we install

Most switch work happens during a remodel or because something broke. Common installs:

1. Standard switch replacement. Worn, scorched, or buzzing switch swapped for a new one.

2. Dimmer switch. Compatible with LEDs (look for “LED-compatible” on the package — older dimmers buzz with modern LEDs).

3. 3-way and 4-way switches. Hallway, stairwell, or large-room lighting controlled from multiple locations.

4. Smart switch. Wi-Fi switches that integrate with Alexa, Google Home, or HomeKit. Often need a neutral wire in the box, which older homes may not have.

5. Motion-activated switch. For pantries, closets, and laundry rooms.

6. Ceiling fan switch. Dual-control switches for fan + light combos.

7. Bathroom fan timer. Run-on timer that helps actually clear bathroom humidity.

If your existing panel is full and there’s no room for another circuit, you may need a panel upgrade first. We’ll evaluate both at the service call.

Angel Hernandez was the HVAC technician/customer service representative from Franklin who arrived promptly, within the time specified, and provided knowledgeable and professional service when my old air conditioner stopped working during this hot Arkansas summer. I appreciated the way he approached the diagnostic call. He took the time to analyze the specific problem and explain my options rather than immediately pushing me to replace the whole thing. He asked detailed questions about the house and took my individual circumstances into consideration before giving his opinion, which helped me make an informed decision. I admired his integrity, professionalism, and willingness to look at the situation from the customer's perspective. He made me feel like he was focused on finding the right solution, not just selling me more than I needed. Throughout our interaction, he was patient with me, showed me the issues, and explained everything in a way that I could understand it. I felt safe and respected, which is important for anyone but especially for this old lady. I would definitely recommend him!

Brett Rutledge, with Franklin AC was the air conditioner repairman sent to unclog my unit lines today. He was very polite, efficient, knowledgeable, and explained everything thoroughly. Very professional. He deserves a 5 star in my opinion.

Pam Thurman in the last week

I enjoyed the service we received but not the spam mail that ended up in our mailbox. They sold our data in the laziest way possible. We now get mail with the name "Franklin Heating And AirLastname Firstname". Received four pieces of mail that way, so far. Wont be returning customers. Owner or not. Someone in the company is selling the data or you have a vulnerability. No two ways about it

Brett Rutledge was my service rep and did a great job informing me and was quick.

FAQ

Common outlet & switch questions.

How fast can you install a new outlet?
Same-day or next-day for most outlet installs. We schedule a 1–2 hour window and complete most jobs in a single visit.
How much does outlet installation cost?
It depends on the work. Switch replacements start $156.65 and outlet replacements start $167.99. Extending an existing 120V circuit starts from $398.76, a new 120V circuit starts from $698.77 (does not include wire), and an EV charger circuit starts from $995 (up to 5 ft of wire + breaker). Pricing includes parts and labor; sales tax not included, and rates can shift over time, so your electrician will quote the exact flat-rate price on-site before any work begins.
Can you add an EV charger outlet?
Yes — see our dedicated EV charger install page. Level 2 EV charger circuits start at $995 (includes up to 5 ft of wire and a circuit breaker; price grows with longer runs or higher amperage). EV charger install quotes are free — no service-call fee, no obligation.
Are your technicians licensed and insured?
Yes. Every Franklin technician works under our Arkansas state licensing, and we're fully insured (general liability + workers' comp). Our team is also background-checked and drug-tested. Email us if you'd like proof of license and insurance.
Do you guarantee the work?
Yes — every job is backed by the Franklin Service Guarantee. If something we repaired or installed isn't right, we'll come back and make it right at no charge.
What is the $29 service call?
It's our diagnostic visit. A licensed technician comes out, figures out what's actually going on, and gives you an all-in flat-rate price for the repair before any work starts. If you decide not to move forward, you only owe the $29 — no penalty. Replacement quotes (water heaters, AC systems, panels, etc.) are always free.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. We've teamed up with Wells Fargo to offer financing on home repairs over $500, upon credit approval. See our financing page for current promotions, or ask your technician for options before approving the quote.
Do you offer services other than this?
Yes — Franklin handles HVAC, plumbing, and electrical work. Same crew, same $29 service call, same flat-rate guarantee.
