Is It Worth Installing an EV Charger?
As electric vehicles become mainstream, installing a charger at your home or business is a smart move.
The benefits extend beyond mere convenience and include things like:
- Charging on your terms: Imagine powering up your EV overnight, eliminating those trips to crowded public stations and the frustrating wait times. With a home charger, you seamlessly integrate charging into your daily life.
- Boosting your property value: A dedicated charging station signals a forward-thinking approach to energy and transportation—an attractive feature for potential buyers or tenants. This addition supports your needs today and positions your property favorably in a market increasingly prioritizing eco-friendly solution.
- Driving a greener future: Embracing EV charging technology aligns you with the larger movement towards a sustainable future. In Silicon Valley, where innovation and environmental responsibility intersect, a home EV charger is a practical choice and a statement of progress.
Does Charging an Electric Car at Home Raise Your Electric Bill?
Charging an electric vehicle at home does contribute to your overall electricity consumption, which can, in turn, affect your electric bill. The amount by which your bill increases depends on several factors, including the type of charger used, the efficiency of your vehicle, and your local electricity rates.
Typically, charging an EV using a Level 2 charger is more energy-efficient than using a Level 1 charger, as it delivers a higher range in a shorter period of time.
It's crucial to monitor your usage, especially during peak hours when electricity rates may be higher. Some homeowners opt for time-of-use rates offered by many utility companies, which can lower costs by charging their vehicles during off-peak times.
By evaluating your energy habits and considering your available options and incentives, you can find ways to mitigate the impact on your bill while enjoying the convenience of home-based charging for your electric vehicle.
Don't wait—join the electric vehicle revolution. Call (669) 322-8182 or contact us online to schedule an EV charger installation in San Jose today.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF EV CHARGERS, AND WHICH ONE IS BEST FOR MY HOME OR BUSINESS?
There are three main types of EV chargers: Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 (DC Fast Chargers).
- Level 1 chargers use a standard 120V outlet and are best for low mileage drivers who can leave their car charging overnight. These chargers are typically slower, providing around 2-5 miles of range per hour.
- Level 2 chargers operate at 240V and are the most popular choice for residential installations. They can charge an electric vehicle 5-7 times faster than a Level 1 charger, offering 25-30 miles of range per hour. These chargers are ideal for daily commuting and shorter turnaround times for fully charging your EV.
- Level 3 (DC Fast Chargers) are typically used in commercial or public settings, providing rapid charging in under an hour. These require more complex installation and are usually not feasible for residential use.
If you’re not sure which charger is best for your needs, our team can help evaluate your driving habits and the electrical setup at your location, and provide recommendations tailored to your situation.
-
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO INSTALL AN EV CHARGER, AND WHAT’S INVOLVED IN THE PROCESS?
The installation process typically takes a few hours to a full day, depending on the complexity of the project.
- Site evaluation: Our experts will assess your electrical system, ensuring it can handle the added load of the EV charger. This may involve upgrading your electrical panel or wiring.
- Installation: Once we confirm your system is ready, we’ll install the charger and necessary components. For Level 2 chargers, a dedicated 240V circuit will be installed.
- Testing & Setup: After installation, we test the system, set up any needed apps or network connections, and ensure you know how to operate your charger efficiently.
Our team will guide you through the entire process, from initial assessment to final testing, ensuring everything is done safely and correctly.
-
DO I NEED A PERMIT TO INSTALL AN EV CHARGER IN SAN JOSE?Yes, installing an EV charger usually requires a permit in San Jose, especially for Level 2 or Level 3 chargers that involve modifications to your home’s electrical system.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO INSTALL AN EV CHARGER?
