FAQs
How much does it cost to install a home EV charger?
It depends mainly on the charger you choose, how far it sits from your electrical panel, and whether your panel needs an upgrade. We give you a clear, itemized quote up front at no cost.
What is the difference between Level 1 and Level 2 charging?
Level 1 uses a standard 120-volt outlet and adds only a few miles of range per hour. A Level 2 charger runs on 240 volts and charges many times faster, which is why it is the standard for home installs.
Do I need a panel upgrade?
Sometimes. If your electrical panel is full or does not have enough capacity, we may need to add a circuit or upgrade the panel. We check this during your assessment and include it in the quote.
How long does the installation take?
Most home installs are completed in a few hours. Jobs that need a panel upgrade or a long wiring run take longer, and we will tell you what to expect before we start.
Can you install a charger for any EV?
Yes. We install chargers compatible with all common EVs, including Tesla and vehicles using the J1772 or NACS connector.
Is there a tax credit for a home EV charger?
The federal home charger credit ended on June 30, 2026, so it is no longer available for new installs. Some utility programs and EV rate plans can still lower your charging costs, and we can point you to what currently applies.
Do you install chargers for businesses?
Alongside home installs, we can discuss commercial and workplace charging. Reach out with your site details.
