We offer a range of EV charger options for Derwood residents, including Level 1, Level 2, and DC fast chargers. Level 1 chargers use standard 120V outlets and are ideal for overnight charging. Level 2 chargers, which we most commonly install, use 240V power and charge significantly faster. For commercial or high-demand residential use, we also install DC fast chargers. Our team will assess your specific needs, vehicle type, and home’s electrical capacity to recommend the best solution. Learn more about our EV charger options.
The installation time for an EV charger can vary depending on several factors, including the type of charger, your home’s existing electrical setup, and any necessary upgrades. In most cases, a standard Level 2 charger installation takes between 2-4 hours. However, if your home requires electrical panel upgrades or new wiring, the process may take longer, potentially up to a full day. Our experienced technicians work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine while ensuring a safe and proper installation.
Yes, we can install EV chargers in older homes. However, older properties may require some electrical upgrades to support the increased power demand of an EV charger.

We have extensive experience working with various home types and ages, and we’ll provide tailored solutions to make EV charging possible in your older home.

EV chargers are generally low-maintenance, but some periodic care can ensure optimal performance and longevity. We recommend regular visual inspections of the charging cable and connector for any signs of wear or damage. Keep the charging port clean and free from debris. If you notice any issues with charging speed or functionality, contact us for a professional inspection. Some smart chargers may require occasional software updates, which we can assist with.
