    Home EV Charger Installation in Utah: What to Know Before You Buy

    Home EV Charger Installation in Utah: What to Know Before You Buy

    Level-1 vs Level-2: what's the difference?

    **Level-1** chargers plug into a standard 120V outlet — slow, adding only about 3–5 miles of range per hour. **Level-2** chargers use a dedicated 240V circuit and add 25–30+ miles of range per hour, charging most EVs overnight.

    For daily driving, Level-2 is the practical choice.

    Does your panel have the capacity?

    Before installing a Level-2 charger, we check your panel. If it's near capacity, you may need a panel upgrade or a sub-panel — especially in older Salt Lake Valley homes.

    Hardwired vs NEMA 14-50

    Hardwired chargers are clean and permanent. A NEMA 14-50 outlet gives you flexibility to swap chargers later. We install both, to code.

    Permits matter

    EV charger installs in Utah require permits and inspection. We handle that for you — so it's done right and legal.

    Any brand

    We install Tesla Wall Connectors, ChargePoint, and universal J1772 units. We'll help you pick the right one for your EV and your home.
