Reasons to Invest in a Home EV Charger

A growing number of homeowners in Ventura County are seeing the real benefit of charging their vehicles right at home. It’s faster, it’s more reliable, and it saves time. Here’s what else it offers:

  • Charging on Your Schedule: Plug in when it works for you. No more driving around looking for an open charger or waiting in line behind other cars.
  • Lower Costs Over Time: Charging at home typically costs less than relying on public stations. Some utility providers offer reduced rates for off-peak charging, which means added savings.
  • Boosted Property Value: Homes with EV charging infrastructure already in place are more attractive to buyers, especially in areas where electric cars are common.

Level 2 Charger Installation

Level 1 chargers, which plug into a typical household outlet, tend to fall short for daily use. They work, but they’re slow. A Level 2 charger is what most homeowners end up needing. It connects to a 240-volt power source and delivers significantly faster charge times.

RR Electric, Heating & Air handles every part of Level 2 charger installation, including electrical panel checks and any necessary upgrades. Our team will help you select a charger that fits your lifestyle and your vehicle. We don’t push the most expensive equipment. We focus on what’s going to work best in your actual day-to-day life.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I install a Level 2 EV charger at home without changing my electrical panel?

In some homes, the panel has enough capacity for a new 240-volt circuit. In others, we may need to upgrade or replace components. When you call us for an EV car charger installation, we’ll evaluate your setup first so you know exactly what needs to be done.

Can I install a charger in the driveway instead of the garage?

Yes. Outdoor installations are common. We use weatherproof materials and follow code requirements to keep the setup safe. Some homeowners prefer driveway chargers because they fit their parking habits better.

How much does EV charger installation typically cost in Simi Valley?

EV charging station installation costs vary depending on the charger model and the electrical work involved. Our electrical contractors will provide you with a clear estimate before we begin.

Will a home EV charger affect my electric bill?

Charging your vehicle at home will add to your energy usage, but it’s usually still cheaper than using gas or relying on public chargers. Some smart chargers allow you to charge during off-peak hours when rates are lower.

How much space do I need for a home EV charging station?

Not much. Most home EV charging stations mount cleanly on the wall of your garage or an exterior surface near your parking area.
