As electric vehicles (EVs) become more popular, many homeowners in San Luis Obispo and across the Central Coast are considering installing an EV charger at home. With the convenience of charging your car overnight, having an EV charger is quickly becoming a must-have feature in modern homes.
As a proud partner of Tesla, A.M. Sun Solar + Roofing is ready to get SLO County homeowners plugged in! Here’s everything you need to know to make an informed decision.
Key Factors When Selecting an EV Charger
Homeowners are increasingly turning to electric vehicles not only for their environmental benefits but also for the long-term savings they offer. With gas prices surging and the push for cleaner energy sources increasing, EVs provide a reliable and cost-effective alternative to traditional vehicles.
It is also becoming more convenient than ever to get EV chargers installed and ready for day to day use. The Universal Tesla Electric Vehicle Charger stands out above the rest of the industry for several reasons:
Charging Speed
- Charge up to 44 miles of range per hour with the Tesla EV charger.
- Offers up to 11.5 kW / 48 amp output, depending on your Tesla model and breaker size.
- Ensures your vehicle is always ready when you are with rapid charging capabilities.
Wi-Fi Connectivity
- Connects to your home’s Wi-Fi for over-the-air firmware updates.
- You can schedule and monitor your vehicle’s charging through the Tesla app.
- Provides convenience and control over your charging experience.
Fast and Flexible Installation
- Suitable for indoor or outdoor mounting, adapting to various electrical systems.
- Lightweight design allows for easy installation by any qualified electrician.
- Compatible with Tesla Certified Electricians for seamless setup and support.
Cost Considerations
The cost of installing an EV charger in your home can vary significantly depending on several factors. Understanding these cost elements is crucial for making an informed decision that fits your budget and meets your needs. Here’s a breakdown of what you should consider:
- Pre-purchased vs. New Purchase: If you’ve already purchased a charger and only need installation, the cost will differ from needing both the charger and installation services.
- Distance From the Electrical Panel: The further your charger needs to be from your home’s electrical panel, the more complex and costly the installation can become. Longer distances may require additional wiring and labor.
- Upgrades or Modifications: Depending on your home’s current electrical system, you may need upgrades or modifications. This can include pedestal kits, Wi-Fi-enabled systems, necessary garage modifications, or the installation of a new breaker box. Each of these adds to the total cost.
