EV Charger Installation: Power Your Electric Vehicle at Home. Fast, Safe, Done Right.
Owning an electric vehicle should make life easier, not more complicated.
Without a proper home charging setup, you're either waiting endlessly on a standard outlet or constantly searching for public charging stations every time your battery gets low.
A professionally installed Level 2 home charger changes everything.
Charge overnight. Eliminate daily charging stress. Plug in when you get home and wake up to a fully charged vehicle every morning.
Power Electrical, Heating & Cooling Services installs home EV chargers for homeowners across the Denver metro area, properly sized, correctly wired, fully permitted, and installed right the first time.
We supply ChargePoint chargers through our trusted electrical supplier, and we also install customer-supplied chargers from any major brand.
What Type of Charger Do You Need? Understanding Your Home EV Charging Options in Arvada
Level 1: Standard 120V Outlet
Level 1 charging uses a standard household outlet, the same type used for lamps and everyday electronics.
No special installation is required if an outlet already exists near your parking location.
The downside is charging speed.
Level 1 charging usually adds only 3 to 5 miles of driving range per hour, meaning a full charge can take anywhere from 24 to 50+ hours depending on your vehicle.
For drivers with short commutes and consistent overnight charging, Level 1 may work adequately.
For most EV owners, it becomes frustrating quickly.
If you want a dedicated 120V outlet installed specifically for Level 1 charging, we handle that as well.
Level 2: Dedicated 240V Circuit (Recommended)
Level 2 charging is the practical standard for home EV charging and the installation we perform most often.
A Level 2 charger runs on a dedicated 240V circuit, similar to an electric dryer or range, delivering dramatically faster charging speeds.
Most Level 2 systems add 20 to 30 miles of range per hour, allowing most EVs to fully recharge overnight.
Installation includes:
• A dedicated 240V circuit
• Proper breaker sizing
• A wall-mounted charging unit
• Permit and code-compliant installation
We supply ChargePoint Level 2 chargers and also install customer-provided chargers from any brand.
Level 3: DC Fast Charging
Level 3 DC fast charging is commercial-grade equipment typically used at public charging stations.
It requires major electrical infrastructure well beyond what most residential homes can support.
While we can discuss Level 3 charging for commercial applications, Level 2 is the right solution for virtually all residential EV owners.

Why EV Charger Installation Is Growing Across Denver Metro
- Colorado is one of the leading EV adoption states in the country, and the Denver metro area is at the center of that growth.
Colorado consistently ranks among the top states for EV ownership thanks to state incentives, federal tax credits, environmental awareness, and the long-term fuel savings electric vehicles provide.
That rapid growth has created a huge increase in demand for home charging solutions.
Colorado's climate also makes home charging especially important.
Cold winter temperatures reduce EV battery efficiency and range, making reliable overnight charging much more valuable during Colorado winters.
Waking up to a fully charged vehicle during a cold January morning in Denver metro is far more convenient than relying on public charging stations in freezing weather.
EV charging capability is also becoming an increasingly valuable real estate feature.
Professionally installed Level 2 charging systems help homes stand out with buyers and often return strong value during resale.
EV charger installation sometimes requires additional electrical upgrades, and we can handle all of it during the same project when needed.
Level 2 chargers require sufficient electrical capacity.
If your electrical panel is full or undersized, we'll explain your options honestly, which may include a panel upgrade.
Learn more about our Electrical Panel Upgrade & Replacement Services here.
Every Level 2 EV charger requires its own dedicated 240V circuit.
If your garage doesn't already have one, we install it fully to code with all required permits.

EV chargers and onboard charging systems are sensitive to power surges.
Colorado's high lightning activity makes surge protection especially important for EV owners.
We strongly recommend whole home surge protection for homes with EV charging systems.

Joey came out and did a fantastic job looking over and cleaning my system for the winter. I had someone come out earlier in the year, but it felt more like he was trying to get me to buy a new system than help with my existing. Joey looked over the system, gave a few small but very helpful suggestions, and cleaned it. Could not recommend these folks enough.

I had purchased an oven and needed an outlet swap as soon as possible. Lance came out right at the beginning of the service window, was very thorough during the estimate procedure and was extremely knowledgeable and answered a lot of questions I had about my circumstance. Couldn't be happier with the communication and service performed. I will definitely utilize this company again in the future.

Just moved into our new (2000 build) house and Joey came out to do winter maintenance on our furnace. This company was recommended from the former owner. Joey was professional, polite and very helpful - showing me how to change the furnace filter and the humidifier pad. He cleaned out the furnace, inspected the system, (which is newer) and told me everything was in good shape – didn’t try to sell me anything extra. I like them and will use them again.

1. What is the difference between Level 1 and Level 2 EV charging?
Level 1 charging uses a standard 120V outlet and typically adds 3 to 5 miles of range per hour.
Level 2 charging uses a dedicated 240V circuit and usually adds 20 to 30 miles of range per hour.
For most homeowners, Level 2 charging is dramatically more convenient and allows the vehicle to recharge fully overnight.
2. Do I need to upgrade my electrical panel for an EV charger?
Not always.
Whether your panel can support a Level 2 charger depends on the panel's available capacity and overall electrical load.
Many modern 200-amp panels support EV charging without upgrades.
Older 100-amp panels or already-loaded panels may require upgrades first.
We always evaluate your panel honestly before recommending additional work.
Learn more about our Electrical Panel Upgrade & Replacement Services here.
3. How long does EV charger installation take?
Most standard Level 2 charger installations take between 2 and 4 hours.
More complex projects involving longer wiring runs, panel upgrades, or detached garages may require additional time.
Most installations are completed in a single visit.
4. Does EV charger installation require a permit in Colorado?
Yes.
Any new circuit installation, including EV charger circuits, requires permits and inspections in Colorado.
Permits help ensure the work meets electrical code and is independently inspected for safety.
We handle all permit coordination and inspections for every installation.
5. Are there tax credits available for EV charger installation?
Yes.
The federal Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Credit currently provides up to 30% tax credit coverage for residential EV charging equipment and installation costs, up to $1,000.
Colorado and utility providers may also offer additional incentives or rebates.
Because programs change regularly, we recommend checking with your tax professional and local utility provider for the latest details.
6. Can I install an EV charger in a condo or apartment?
Possibly, but it depends on the building's electrical infrastructure and HOA or landlord approval.
Some newer buildings are already designed to support EV charging.
Older properties may require significant infrastructure upgrades.
We're happy to assess the electrical feasibility of the installation and provide documentation if needed for HOA approval.
7. Will an EV charger increase my home's value?
In many cases, yes.
As EV adoption continues growing across Colorado, professionally installed Level 2 charging is increasingly viewed as a valuable home feature.
Homes with permitted EV charging systems often stand out to buyers and may help improve resale value.
