You need an experienced electrician to install an electric car charger at your home in Sacramento, CA. Working with Huft Home Services guarantees the proper installation of an EV charging station that will make it more convenient to charge your hybrid or electric car. There are three levels of electric car charges to choose from. Level 1 allows you to plug in your car battery and uses 120 Volt electricity. However, these standard chargers are somewhat limited and can take up to a few days to complete a full charge. With level 2 or 3 EV charging stations, you can upgrade to 240 Volt plugs. This expands your driving range, depending on the type of battery and car you have, providing a much faster charge; sometimes a full charge overnight!

Frequently Asked Questions
What Types of EV Chargers Do You Install?
We install all types of EV chargers, including Level 1 (120V), Level 2 (240V), and fast chargers (DC fast charging), to accommodate different charging needs and home setups.
How Much Does It Cost To Install an EV Charger in Sacramento, CA?
The cost of installation varies depending on the type of charger and the complexity of the installation. Once our electrician team has completed the diagnosis of the installation and the type of charger has been selected, we will provide an upfront cost with no hidden fees.
Do I Need a Permit To Install an EV charger At My Home?
Yes, in Sacramento, a permit is usually required for EV charger installation to ensure compliance with local building and electrical codes.
How Long Does It Take To Install an EV Charging Station?
Most residential EV charger installations can be completed in a few hours. However, complex installations may take longer, especially if electrical panel upgrades are required.
What Are the Benefits of a Level 2 Charger Over a Level 1 Charger?
A Level 2 charger charges your vehicle much faster than a Level 1 charger. Level 1 chargers use a standard 120V outlet and can take over 24 hours to fully charge a vehicle, while Level 2 chargers use 240V and typically charge an EV in 4-6 hours.
Will My Home’s Electrical Panel Need To Be Upgraded for an EV Charger?
In some cases, yes. If your home’s electrical system cannot handle the additional load of an EV charger, we may need to upgrade your panel to accommodate the new charger safely.
Are There Any Rebates or Incentives for Installing an EV Charger in Sacramento?
Yes, there are various local, state, and federal incentives for installing EV chargers. Programs like California’s Clean Vehicle Rebate Project (CVRP) and utility company rebates may help offset the cost of installation.
Can I Use Solar Power To Charge My EV?
Yes, if you have a solar power system installed, you can charge your EV using solar energy. We can integrate your EV charger with your solar system to maximize energy efficiency and savings.
How Do I Choose the Right EV Charger For My Needs?
Choosing the right charger depends on your vehicle’s battery size, how quickly you need to charge, and your home’s electrical capacity. We can help you select the ideal charger based on your specific requirements.
