Electric vehicles are the future for residents and business owners in Langford, BC. They feature lower running costs, fewer importation tariffs for models that run on renewable electricity, and eliminate noise pollution in busy cities. However, they require an electric vehicle charging station, which might require a 120 or 240-volt alternating current, depending on your model, that your home grid might not support.

At Sasquatch Home Services, we love making fully-electric vehicles accessible to clients in our service areas. We have years of experience in residential EV charging station installation catering to American, Japanese, and Chinese carmakers.

We also offer heat pump installation and repairs for clients who want efficient HVAC systems.

Why Do You Need an Electric Vehicle Charging Station?

Electric vehicles require significant amounts of electricity to charge. A fast-charging smartphone draws 0.002% of the power an EV needs to recharge. A domestic wall socket and electrical system will strain and malfunction under this massive load, especially as even the most efficient electric cars need several hours to repower.

What Electric Vehicle Charging Station Can Contractors Install?

We can install three types of EV charging stations:

Level 1 Electric Car Charging Station

A level one or L1 charging station is a household outlet for car buyers who do not travel many miles. L1 chargers accommodate 1.3 to 2.4-kilowatt hours of charging power, which outputs around four miles of range for each hour you charge.

Level 2 Electric Vehicle Charging Station

An L2 charger can accommodate 3 to 19-kilowatt hours of charging power. It can charge large EV batteries in less than nine hours.

Level 3 Direct Current Fast Chargers

Technicians also call L3 chargers DCFCs. They can accommodate up to 200-kilowatt hours of direct current. They are the standard for industrial and commercial locations but can be impractical for residential use.

Sasquatch Home Services offers heat pump installation and repairs for homeowners who want EV-like power efficiency for their HVAC systems.

Why Hire Licensed Professionals?

Distribution boxes feature components that overheat under a significant power draw. If you attempt to charge an EV from a wall socket, a fuse blowing up is your best-case scenario. Older cables and sockets will melt or spark after a few minutes.

EV charging station installation is a job for qualified professionals. Hiring unlicensed crews or going DIY might create fire hazards or damage your electric vehicle.
