EV Charger: Home Installation Guide

Read more on this on our full bog: Home EV Charger Installation | Mechanical One

Tired of waiting in lines to charge your electric vehicle? Installing a home EV charger gives you the convenience of charging on your schedule while saving money long-term. Mechanical One’s certified installers ensure a safe, codecompliant installation so you can enjoy peace of mind and reliable charging at home.

Which Charger is Right for You?
Home chargers are typically Level 1 or Level 2. Level 1 plugs into a standard outlet and is best for overnight charging with lighter driving needs. Level 2 requires a 240-volt outlet and can fully charge most EVs within 4–8 hours, making it the most popular choice for homeowners. Our team can help you choose the right charger for your vehicle and lifestyle.

Benefits of Home Charging
Installing an EV charger at home means faster, safer, and more convenient charging compared to public stations. Many chargers also include smart features like scheduling and energy tracking. Beyond convenience, an EV charger can boost your property value and may qualify you for rebates or tax credits—such as the federal incentive that covers 30% of installation costs (up to $1,000) through 2026.

What to Expect from Installation
Our process begins with an electrical assessment to confirm your home’s panel can handle the added load. We handle permits, inspections, and installation, which in most cases can be completed in under an hour. Plus, every installation comes with a 1-year warranty.
