Signs You Need a Home Charger
If any of this sounds like your house, it is probably time to stop relying on the cord that came with the car.
- You just bought or ordered an EV and the cord that came with it is not going to cut it.
- You are charging off a regular wall outlet and it takes a full day to add any real range.
- You have two EVs in the household and one outlet is not enough.
- You want faster overnight charging so you wake up to a full battery every morning.
- You are building or remodeling a garage and want the charger planned into the wiring.
- You want a charger that works with whatever EV you buy next, not just the one in the driveway.
A Level 2 charger runs on a dedicated 240 volt circuit and adds real range every hour it is plugged in. The cord in the box is fine for a top off now and then. It is not a plan. Send a photo of your panel with your request and we will tell you what we see.
What a Charger Install Includes
A real home charger is not an extension cord. It is a dedicated circuit run from your panel, sized to carry the load, and landed clean. Here is what we handle on a charger install.
- Installing all major Level 2 home chargers.
- Hardwired Tesla Universal Wall Connectors, which work with Tesla and every other EV brand.
- Running a dedicated 240 volt circuit from your panel to the charger.
- Checking whether your current panel and service can handle the added load.
- Panel upgrades when the old service does not have the room.
- Clean conduit runs in garages and along driveways.
- Labeling the new circuit in your panel so you know exactly what runs what.
Every new circuit gets labeled in your panel before we leave, so you know exactly what runs what.
