    Frequently Asked Questions

    How much does it cost to install a Level 2 EV charger at home?+

    Most installs in Franklin County and the St. Louis area run $800–$2,200. The variables are how far the charger sits from your panel, whether conduit has to go through finished walls, and whether your existing panel has capacity for a 40–60 amp circuit. We give a flat quote after looking at the panel.

    Do I need a permit to install an EV charger?+

    Yes. Every Franklin County and St. Louis-area jurisdiction requires a permit and inspection for a hardwired Level 2 charger or a dedicated 240V circuit. We pull the permit and coordinate the inspection as part of the install.

    Will my electrical panel support an EV charger?+

    Most 200-amp panels can — but a 100-amp panel or an older home with electric heat, an A/C, and an electric range may not. We do a load calculation on-site and tell you honestly whether you need a sub-panel, a load-management charger, or a full service upgrade.

    Which EV chargers do you install?+

    Any UL-listed Level 2 unit — Tesla Wall Connector (including non-Tesla EVs), ChargePoint Home Flex, Wallbox Pulsar Plus, Grizzl-E, JuiceBox, Emporia, and the chargers Ford, GM, and Rivian ship with new vehicles. If you haven't bought one yet, we'll recommend a unit sized to your car.

    Hardwired or NEMA 14-50 outlet — which is better?+

    Hardwired is required above 40 amps and is generally cleaner and more reliable. A NEMA 14-50 outlet is fine for 32A charging and lets you unplug the charger to take it with you. We'll recommend the right setup based on your charger and how much amperage your car can actually pull.
