Should I Install an EV Charger in My Home?

Installing an EV charger in your home is a smart investment that enhances the convenience of owning an electric vehicle and adds value to your property.

Five reasons why you should consider installing an EV charger at home include:

Convenience: Having an EV charger at home means you can recharge your vehicle overnight or anytime, eliminating the need for frequent trips to public charging stations.
Cost savings: Home charging can be more cost-effective than public chargers, especially if you take advantage of lower electricity rates during off-peak hours.
Increased property value: Homes with installed EV chargers are increasingly attractive to potential buyers, making it a valuable upgrade to your property.
Environmental benefits: Charging your electric vehicle at home reduces reliance on fossil fuels and lowers greenhouse gas emissions, contributing to a cleaner and healthier environment.
Customized charging: You have the flexibility to choose and install a charger that meets your specific needs in terms of speed, power, and additional features.

By installing an EV charger in your home, you gain control over your vehicle’s charging process, contributing to both personal convenience and environmental sustainability. Don’t wait any longer – reach out to RYCO Electric to schedule an installation!

What Are the Different Types of EV Chargers?

There are different types of EV chargers, each designed to meet varying charging needs and preferences. Understanding your options can help you choose the most suitable charger for your electric vehicle.

The different types of EV chargers include:

Level 1 Chargers: These chargers use a standard 120-volt outlet and are typically included with the purchase of an electric vehicle. They provide a slow charge, adding about 3 to 5 miles of range per hour.
Level 2 Chargers: Requiring a 240-volt outlet, these chargers are faster than Level 1, adding 10 to 60 miles of range per hour. They are ideal for home installations and public charging stations.
DC Fast Chargers (Level 3): These high-powered chargers use direct current (DC) to charge vehicles quickly, adding up to 100 miles of range in about 20 minutes. They are typically found in commercial and public locations.
Tesla Superchargers: Specifically designed for Tesla vehicles, these high-speed chargers offer rapid charging capabilities, making them a popular choice for long-distance travel.

Choosing the right type of EV charger depends on your charging needs, vehicle type, and available infrastructure. Reach out to RYCO Electric to go over your options. We have extensive experience installing and servicing residential EV chargers and always strive to get the job done right the first time!

“Anytime I need electrical work I will specifically request Ryco and Adam.”
Ryco electric was dispatched to my home through my home warranty, but I would pay for services with them on my own strictly due to Adams level of service. He contacted me 15 minutes prior to my appt as requested and was extremely professional. Once he was complete, I asked him a few questions and he advised me and said he would check into it with his employer because he knew the warranty company would not cover those services. He was very polite and any time I need electrical work I will specifically request Ryco and Adam.

Do I Need an Electrical Panel Upgrade for a Level 2 Charger?

Installing a Level 2 EV charger in your home can significantly increase your electrical load due to its higher power requirements compared to standard home appliances. Level 2 chargers typically require a dedicated 240-volt circuit, which can draw between 20 to 100 amps depending on the specific model and charging speed. If your existing electrical service is rated at 100 amps or is already close to capacity with other household demands, you may need an upgrade to a 200-amp service to safely accommodate the charger. It’s essential to consult with a licensed electrician to evaluate your current electrical system and determine if a panel upgrade or rewiring service is necessary. Maintaining adequate electrical capacity is important for safety, efficiency, and compliance with local codes.
