Installing an EV charging station in your home is an investment with significant long-term benefits. As electric vehicles become more popular, many homeowners are seeing the value of installing a home charging station for their new purchase to conveniently increase their EV's range and better enjoy the benefits of zero-emission mobility. Discover a wide variety of advantages to installing an electric vehicle charger in your home.
Home EV chargers allow you to fully charge your vehicle while you sleep, eliminating the need to frequently visit public charging stations. You won't have to waste time waiting in line for a charging location. And you’ll never have to endure the inconvenience of a malfunctioning or out-of-service charging station.
Charging your electric vehicle at home is often less expensive than using public charging stations. Plus, you can lower your charging expenses over time by taking advantage of time-of-use pricing when you charge your vehicle during off-peak hours. A home charging station also eliminates the need to pay for parking and other expenses associated with public charging stations.
Using a home EV charger will help you get more out of your EV battery. Fast charging at public charging stations might strain your battery due to increased current temperatures, limiting overall battery lifespan. You can avoid this problem and maintain your battery in good condition by using a home charging station with a slower charging rate. Additionally, you can more easily customize your charging habits to avoid overcharging and optimize battery performance by staying within the recommended 15%-85% battery charge level range.
You have complete control over your charging schedule with a home EV charger. You may charge your EV when and how often you want, providing you with more freedom and control over your charging habits. Smart charging capabilities also allow you to manage your energy usage and monitor your charging sessions. By using a home charging station, you can tailor your charging schedule to fit your needs and optimize your EV's performance.
With the increasing popularity of electric vehicles, potential homebuyers will be more willing to consider your home if electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) is installed. According to a recent University of Maryland study, homes with better availability of electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure sell for on average $17,000 more than homes without easy access. This can be a big selling feature for buyers and help you get more money when you sell your house.
Home EV chargers play an important role in the main purpose of electric vehicles - to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Many new EV customers purchase their electric vehicles due to the added convenience of charging at home. By choosing to charge your EV at home, you can make a difference for the planet while enjoying the convenience and cost savings of home charging.

Couldn't be happier with ideal electric, very professional and got my old generator working again.
You won’t regret working with these guys, be it for residential or commercial work. Jeremy and his team all do excellent work. They are knowledgeable; thorough and really go the extra mile to get the job done right.
I've used them for years and have always been happy. Would highly recommend Ideal Electric. I've used them for years and have always been happy with their responsiveness and their competitive pricing.
Ideal Electric, Inc. is a reliable, timely, and courteous business. Jeremy and his staff have completed numerous projects for me that vary in difficulty. They perform simple and complex tasks with great skill and respect for your home.
Scheduling is easy, and now reminders are automated via email and text, which is a nice benefit for me. Even though the appointments are on my calendar, it's nice to have a confirmation of the time and date for the appointment.
Ideal Electric offers great value for its services.
Alex was great...He was able to install new outlets with minimal disruption. He arrived on time and was very professional. I would call Ideal Electric again.
I have hired Jeremy and his team twice now. Both times, it has been an absolute pleasure working with Jeremy and Mark. Mark was fast, friendly, and professional. He even took time to explain how to tackle other small electrical projects myself (as I do minor renovations on my own). In both cases, the prices were very reasonable and even less than quoted. There is no other company that I will work with in the future, for big or small projects.
