Most homes built in the last 20 years can handle Level 2 EV charger installation without panel upgrades. However, older Villa Park homes may need electrical service upgrades to safely support the additional load. During our assessment, we evaluate your current panel capacity, existing electrical usage, and the power requirements of your chosen EV charger. Level 2 chargers typically require a 240-volt circuit similar to what powers your electric dryer or air conditioner. If your panel needs upgrading, we’ve been handling electrical service changes in Villa Park for 25 years. Panel upgrades are often eligible for rebates and can improve your home’s overall electrical safety and capacity.
Most installations are completed in one day once permits are approved and materials arrive. The entire process from initial assessment to final inspection typically takes 1-2 weeks. We handle permit applications with Villa Park, which usually take 3-5 business days for approval. Installation itself takes 4-8 hours depending on the distance from your electrical panel to your charging location and whether any panel upgrades are needed. After installation, we coordinate the required city inspection to ensure everything meets code. You’ll be charging at home within days of starting the process, not weeks.
Level 2 chargers are the best choice for most Villa Park homeowners, providing the right balance of charging speed and installation cost. These 240-volt chargers can fully charge most electric vehicles overnight.

They’re also eligible for the maximum rebate amounts from ComEd and federal tax credits. We help you select the right charger based on your vehicle’s requirements, your driving patterns, and your home’s electrical capacity. Popular options include Tesla Wall Connectors, ChargePoint Home, and JuiceBox chargers.
