Electric Car Chargers Setting the Standard

Scottsdale Electric Car Charger Services

Electric Vehicle Charging Station Installation, Maintenance, & Repair in Maricopa County, Including Chandler, Phoenix, Tempe, & Surrounding Areas

Electric vehicles are becoming popular, and more models are becoming available each year. Whether you have a model from one of the big brands, such as Tesla, or another brand, it is important to have a charging station at your home so your vehicle can be ready to go whenever you are. 

The chargers for these vehicles are different than a standard wall outlet and require specialized equipment to install. Because of this, it is important to seek out a company such as Benchmark Electric for help with installing your electric car charger. Our team has years of experience installing these chargers and can even help you apply for the government grants that are available for installing these chargers at your home. 

How Do Electric Car Chargers Work? 

There are a few different types of chargers for electric vehicles, and each one works a little differently. 

Level 1 Charger

This type of charger connects to a standard wall outlet and generally charges very slowly. 

Level 2 Charger

This charger connects to a dedicated circuit and charges your vehicle at a much faster rate than a level 1 charger. This charger is more expensive and requires a professional to install. The amount of electricity used will vary depending on the type of vehicle you have and the model of charger you have.

Fast Charger

As the name suggests, this type of charger charges your vehicle very quickly. A fast charger is more expensive to install and requires a dedicated circuit, just like a level 2 charger. However, this charger can charge your vehicle much more quickly and is very convenient. 

Who Needs Electric Car Chargers? 

Anyone who owns an electric vehicle needs a charging station at their home. Having a charged vehicle ready to go when you are is a great advantage and can save you a lot of time. It is important to note that not all homes are suitable to have a charging station. If you have a dedicated electrical circuit, you are ready to have a charging station. If not, you may need to upgrade your electrical service before you can have a charging station installed. 

Another great reason to have a charging station is because they can earn you government grants. Both the state of Arizona and the federal government offer grants that can help you pay for your charging station. With our help applying for these grants, you will be able to have a charging station at your home without putting you in debt. 

As you can see, it is very important to have a charging station at your home if you own an electric vehicle. Not only is it convenient, but it will make your home very appealing to potential buyers if you ever decide to sell. Having a charging station installed at your home is not a job for amateurs and should only be done by a company that has experience with electric car chargers. With our team, you can count on fast, reliable service for your charging station. 

Benefits of Having an Electric Car Charger

There are many advantages to owning an electric vehicle, from better fuel economy to quiet operation and zero emissions. Having a charging station at your home is a must-have if you own an electric vehicle, since it allows you to quickly charge your vehicle when you are at home. 

The advantages of having a charging station include:

  • Convenience: Having a charging station at your home is very convenient, since you can charge your vehicle whenever it is most convenient for you.
  • Save time: Since most people charge their vehicle at night, charging during the day can save you a lot of time. However, if you use a fast charger, you can charge your vehicle very quickly and save even more time.
  • Save money: Electric vehicles tend to be more expensive than their gas-powered counterparts. However, electricity is usually less expensive than gasoline, so you can save money on fuel. In addition, you may be eligible for government grants to help you pay for your charging station.
