Types of EV Chargers We Install
Level 1 Chargers
A Level 1 charger uses a standard 120V household outlet and adds about 2-5 miles of range per hour. They work best for overnight charging and low-mileage drivers, making them a budget-friendly choice for short commutes and casual use.
Level 2 Chargers
Level 2 chargers use a 240V outlet and require a dedicated circuit. They charge faster than Level 1 chargers and provide around 15-30 miles of driving range per hour, making them a popular option for daily use and everyday charging.
Smart EV Chargers
Smart EV chargers are typically Level 2 chargers (240V) that use Wi-Fi connectivity to offer advanced monitoring and scheduling features. Some key benefits include tracking energy usage and lowering electricity costs by charging during off-peak hours.
Outdoor-Rated Chargers
Outdoor-rated EV chargers are designed for installation in garages, driveways, or exterior walls. Their weather-resistant enclosures, durable cables, and surge protection make them safe for use in all weather conditions.

Where Are EV Chargers Installed?
EV charging stations can be installed in various locations, such as garages, carports, or near parking pads and driveways. The best location depends on your specific charger, electrical system, and property layout. Our experts can evaluate factors like electrical accessibility, security, and weather exposure to determine an ideal location for convenience, performance, and safety.
Do I Need to Upgrade My Electrical Panel for an EV Charger?
It depends on your existing system and the type of system you want to install. Level 1 chargers usually don’t require electrical panel upgrades, but Level 2 chargers require a dedicated circuit with sufficient amperage. If your panel is outdated, fully loaded, or unable to handle the additional load safely, our technicians can review your home’s electrical capacity and perform any necessary upgrades or modifications to support your EV charging station and bring your system up to current code standards.
How Long Does It Take to Install an EV Charging Station?
The timeframe for EV charger installation depends on your electrical system, charger type, and municipal regulations. Level 2 chargers with panel upgrades can take several hours for the physical labor, although the process for permitting and hardware delivery can take a few weeks.
Our team offers hassle-free scheduling options to streamline the process and reduce unnecessary delays. We also provide free quotes, upfront pricing, and realistic timelines to keep you informed from start to finish.
Can Older Homes Accommodate EV Chargers?
Older homes may require panel upgrades or additional wiring to support Level 2 chargers safely. Our electricians can assess your property’s capacity and recommend appropriate solutions to support EV charging while complying with local electrical codes.
