EV Charging Station Installation in Stuart, FL

Are you considering purchasing an electric vehicle (EV), or do you already have one and need a charger? Stott Brothers Electric is the electrical contractor to trust for EV charging station installation in Stuart, FL. Having an EV charging station at home makes EV ownership hassle-free. It’s nice to have access to a public fast-charging station in a pinch. That said, you don’t want to have to rely on it. Having your own charger is hassle-free; you can even charge your EV while you’re sound asleep.

"First time using this company - excellent communication, quality work at a fair price, pleasant and professional personnel from scheduling, estimates and installation. Will definitely use them in the future" - John K.

Many EV Charging Station Options

There are two core charging options for EV charging station installation in Stuart: Level 1 and Level 2. A Level 1 charger provides a 110-120-volt connection. A Level 2 charger provides a 240-volt connection and much faster charging. Even if you only need Level 1 right now, you may want to consider Level 2. A Level 2 EV charging station is compatible with vehicles that have a Level 1 charging system. It will also future-proof your home for when you buy or lease your next EV.

Another choice is whether you want a fixed charger hardwired to your electrical panel. The alternative is a portable unit that connects to an outlet hardwired to the panel. Fixed units are often preferable because they generally provide faster and more consistent charging. Mobile units are convenient if you travel with your charger frequently. They are also a strong choice if you intend to move from your current location fairly soon.

Homeowners often have concerns about plug type. The industry currently uses two distinct plugs: the J-plug and the Tesla plug. The good news is that adapters are widely available. Purchase what you need now. If those needs change in the future, it’s a relatively simple and inexpensive upgrade.

What do you do if you live in a household with multiple EVs? In that case, we often recommend a dual charging station that can charge two EVs simultaneously. It’s possible to have a J-plug on one side and a Tesla plug on the other.

There are many advantages to having your own EV charging station:

• Convenience
• Longer battery life
• Remote access and control
• The option to top off overnight
• Lower long-term charging costs
