Homes change in small ways over time. Maybe the garage became your gym. Maybe the backyard finally got that seating area you always talked about. And now, with an electric vehicle in the driveway, the way you power your life is shifting, too.
That’s where a home EV charger comes in. Plugging your car into a standard outlet might have worked for a few weeks. But after a while, you start to feel the limits. It takes too long. It doesn’t keep up with your schedule. And you’re ready for a better solution. At RR Electric, Heating & Air, we install EV chargers that are built for everyday use. If you’re ready to talk about installation, we’re ready to help. Contact us today to schedule your appointment!

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:
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.
Having an EV car charger installed at home is a smart decision. But it’s not as simple as plugging in a phone charger. It needs to be done correctly to match your home’s electrical system, meet local code, and work consistently for years.
Your Level 2 EV charger installation starts with a conversation. You tell us where you park, how often you drive, and what kind of EV you have. We look at your panel, check your electrical wiring, and talk through what your system can support. If any upgrades are needed, we will walk you through them with clear pricing.
Once the plan is finalized, we begin the electrical work. This can involve installing a new circuit or upgrading your service panel. Every connection is made to code using high-quality materials. We never cut corners. The charger is installed exactly where you want it, and we secure all wiring cleanly to avoid hazards or future issues.
Before we leave, our EV charging station installers test the system thoroughly. That includes powering up the charger, checking connectivity features if it’s a smart unit, and making sure it communicates correctly with your vehicle. We also walk you through how to use the charger, explain any app-based features, and talk about common maintenance needs so you feel confident using it on day one.
There’s a lot of information online about EV chargers, but most of it misses the point. The right charger isn’t just about brand or price. It’s about matching the charger’s features to your car, your driving habits, and your home’s electrical capacity.
Some chargers are basic and plug-and-play. Others have built-in Wi-Fi, programmable timers, and compatibility with solar systems. There are models designed for indoor use, outdoor use, and ones that mount in tighter spaces. We help you sort through all that by starting with your real needs. Once we know how often you drive and how much range you typically use, we can help you pick a charger that makes the most sense. If you’re not sure what your panel can support, we’ll look at that too before recommending anything.

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.
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.
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.
