EV Chargers: What You Need to Know

• Level 1:
  Uses a standard 120V outlet. Slow — adds ~4 miles of range per hour. OK for plug-in hybrids or very light use.

• Level 2:
  Requires a 240V connection. Adds ~25–35 miles of range per hour. Ideal for overnight home charging and commercial use. This is what we install most often.

• DC Fast Charger:
  Industrial-grade charging for public stations and fleet infrastructure. Not used in homes.

Pricing depends on a few key factors. We’ll review all of these with you during your quote:

• Distance from your panel to the charger location

• Whether your panel has enough capacity

• If trenching, conduit, or exterior work is needed

• Brand of charger (Tesla, JuiceBox, Wallbox, etc.)

We provide honest, up-front quotes so there are no surprises.

Most homes with 200-amp service can support a Level 2 charger without an upgrade. If your panel is smaller or already near capacity, we’ll walk you through the options — including adding a subpanel, load management, or smart breaker options.
