The Benefits of Installing an EV Charing Station

Looking to install an electric car charger in your Raleigh home, multi-family property, or business? EV charging stations offer a convenient and reliable way to recharge your electric vehicle without the need to find public charging stations or wait around when you’re on the go. 

And with more automakers making the shift to all-electric fleets, having a charging station on your property can make it more attractive to potential buyers, tenants, and customers. It’s an investment in a sustainable future and the future of your home or business. 

Types of EV Charging Stations

But what type of EV charging station do you need? There are a few options and Yellow Dot Heating & Air Conditioning can help find the best one for you. 

Level 1 chargers are the slowest way to charge an EV. They use standard 120-volt outlets (found in nearly every home and garage) and while they may be able to charge some plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV) overnight, they’re not a great choice for EVs. They’ll provide just 2 to 5 miles of range per hour of charging. 

Level 2 chargers are the most common EV chargers found in homes and public charging stations. Providing around 25 miles of range per hour of charging, they can recharge the typical EV overnight and most PHEVs in a matter of hours. Level 2 chargers do require a 240-volt outlet, so if your house or property doesn’t have one, you may need to update the electrical panel, breaker, and / or other electrical systems. 

Level 3 charges are known as rapid / fast DC chargers. They’re 400-volts or more and can recharge an EV to 80% within an hour. Level 3 charging stations are more expensive to install and use and may not be an option for every home or even every EV.
