Electrical Problems Don’t Wait. Neither Do We.

Bethlehem homeowners tackle a wide range of projects, from renovating historic South Side properties to building out smart home systems in newer North Side homes. Kelley Electric handles specialty residential electrical work throughout Bethlehem, covering everything from pool wiring and home automation to smart thermostat installation and outlet upgrades.

Specialty electrical work covers the projects that do not fit neatly into a single category. For Bethlehem homeowners, that often means pool or hot tub wiring, smart home installations, EV charging infrastructure, or targeted upgrades like USB outlets and smart switches. Kelley Electric handles all of it for residential customers throughout Bethlehem and the surrounding communities.

Pool and Hot Tub Wiring

Pool and hot tub electrical installations are among the most technically demanding residential jobs we do. They involve dedicated circuits, specific GFCI requirements, bonding to prevent shock in the water, and code compliance that is specific to water-adjacent electrical work. Getting any of it wrong is a serious safety hazard.

We handle the full installation for both in-ground and above-ground pools as well as portable and permanent hot tubs. All pool and hot tub wiring is permitted and inspected before the equipment goes into use.

Home Automation and Smart Home Wiring

Smart home technology is only as reliable as the electrical infrastructure behind it. Whether you are building out a full home automation system or adding targeted smart devices, we handle the wiring and installation that makes it work correctly. That includes dedicated circuits for smart panels, proper grounding for sensitive electronics, and the low-voltage wiring that some systems require.

Smart Thermostat Installation

Bethlehem’s older homes frequently lack the C-wire that many smart thermostats require for continuous power. We assess your existing thermostat wiring before recommending any specific device and handle the full installation including running a C-wire if your system needs one. The result is a properly powered, fully functional smart thermostat rather than one that runs on borrowed power and causes issues with your HVAC system.

Smart Doorbell and Security Device Installation

Hardwired smart doorbells are more reliable than battery-powered models and maintain a more consistent connection. If your existing doorbell transformer does not put out enough power for a smart model, we handle the upgrade as part of the installation. We work with Ring, Nest, and other major brands.

Outlet and Switch Upgrades

Outdated outlets and switches are one of the most common things we address in Bethlehem homes. Whether you need GFCI outlets in bathrooms and kitchens, USB-A or USB-C outlets for convenient charging, smart switches for voice or app control, or simply a batch of worn-out outlets replaced, we handle all of it cleanly and to code.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about specialty electrical services in Bethlehem, PA? Here are answers to what we hear most often from local homeowners.

Schedule Service

(610) 395-2144

Yes. Both pool types require dedicated circuits, GFCI protection, and proper bonding regardless of size. The permitting and inspection requirements are similar for both. We handle the full installation from panel to equipment and make sure everything is signed off before use.
Yes. Many older Bethlehem homes were wired with only four thermostat wires, which does not include a C-wire. We run the additional wire from your air handler or furnace to the thermostat location as part of the installation. In some cases a power adapter kit works instead, depending on your HVAC equipment.
It depends on the condition of your existing doorbell wiring and transformer. Many older Bethlehem homes have doorbell wiring in place but with a low-voltage transformer that does not provide enough power for a modern smart doorbell. We assess the existing setup and handle any transformer upgrade needed as part of the installation.
Yes. Pool and hot tub electrical work is a permitted project in Pennsylvania, and the installation must be inspected before the equipment is used. Kelley Electric handles all permitting and inspection coordination as part of the job.
Yes. USB and USB-C combination outlets are a direct replacement for standard outlets and fit in the same electrical box. Installation is straightforward in most cases and does not require running new wiring. They are a practical upgrade for bedrooms, kitchens, home offices, and anywhere you regularly charge devices.
We work with devices on all major platforms including Google Home, Amazon Alexa, and Apple HomeKit. The right devices depend on which platform you are using or plan to build around. We can help you think through compatibility before you purchase anything so you do not end up with devices that do not work together.
In many cases yes, depending on scope. If you are looking to install a smart thermostat, upgrade some outlets, and add a smart doorbell, it often makes sense to combine them into one service call. Give us a call and we will figure out the most efficient way to get everything done.
