Why Install a Home EV Charger?
Home Charging
Keep your vehicle plugged in at home rather than making extra trips to public charging stations. Your own charging spot makes every day EV use more convenient.
Faster Charging
A Level 2 charger uses a dedicated 240V circuit and charges much faster than a standard household outlet. It is a practical option for drivers who rely on their EV regularly.
Overnight Charging
Charge while your vehicle is parked for the night. You can also take advantage of Ontario's lower off-peak electricity rates when applicable.
More Flexibility
Choose when to plug in and charge your vehicle. A dedicated home setup gives you more flexibility without having to plan every trip around a public charging station.
Why Install a Home EV Charger?
Convenience
Never visit a gas station or public charger again. Charge overnight in your own garage or driveway. Wake up to 100% battery every morning.
Speed
Level 2 charging is 6x faster than a standard outlet. Add 30-50 km of range per hour instead of 8 km with a regular 120V outlet.
Cost Savings
Charge at off-peak rates. Ontario's time-of-use pricing means cheaper electricity overnight. Save hundreds per year vs. public charging.
Home Value
Increase your property value. EV chargers are becoming a must-have for homebuyers. Get ahead of the curve.
Future-Ready
Prepare for your next EV. Even if your current EV has limited range, a home charger prepares you for future vehicles.
