Electric Vehicle Charging Stations For Residential Homes
By 2030, the Whitehouse plans to have electric vehicles (EVs) account for 50% of all car sales. With car manufacturers driving production to meet this demand, electric vehicles are quickly becoming a common sight on the road.
While the technology to rapidly charge at designated power stations exists, slower overnight charging at home still makes the most sense for day to day use. That’s why many of our customers have asked us about installing an EV charging station in their home.

-
Can I Install A Charging Station Myself?
Most ESVS installs require a dedicated circuit of at least 20 amps, located near the area you want to provide power to, such as a garage. Most electric panels will need to have a circuit added by a licensed electrician in order to meet this requirement. In some instances, your main electric panel or subpanel may need to be upgraded to meet the required amperage. For your safety and to avoid damage to your panel, this should only be performed by a licensed electrician.
-
Does my home need an electrical panel upgrade before installing an EV charger?
Possibly. If your current electrical panel is near capacity or if your home’s wiring or circuit load does not meet the requirements for a dedicated EV charger circuit, we will recommend and perform a panel upgrade or wiring modifications as needed for safety and compliance.
-
How long does an EV charger installation usually take, and what safety checks are done?
A standard installation typically takes a few hours. Our electricians perform a full safety check: verify proper wiring, grounding, circuit capacity, breaker sizing, and test the charger under load. We ensure the installation meets code, is safe, and functions reliably.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
What types of EV chargers can Heritage install in New Hampshire?
Heritage installs Level 2 home charging stations from all major manufacturers, including Tesla, ChargePoint, Emporia, and more. We work with you to select the best charger based on your vehicle, driving habits, and electrical system capacity.
-
How much does it cost to install an EV charging station at home in New Hampshire?
The cost varies depending on your electrical panel capacity, the distance from the panel to the charger location, and whether any upgrades are needed. Contact Heritage for a free estimate tailored to your specific home and setup.
-
What is the difference between Level 1 and Level 2 EV charging?
Level 1 charging uses a standard 120-volt household outlet and adds only 3 to 5 miles of range per hour, while Level 2 uses a 240-volt dedicated circuit and can add 25 to 50 miles per hour. Heritage recommends Level 2 charging for most homeowners as it allows a full overnight charge.
-
Are there any tax credits or incentives for installing an EV charger in New Hampshire?
The federal government offers a tax credit of up to 30% of the cost of purchasing and installing a home EV charger under the Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Credit. Heritage can help ensure your installation qualifies for available incentives.
-
Can my existing electrical panel handle an EV charger?
Many modern panels with 200-amp service can accommodate an EV charger, but older homes with 100-amp panels may need an upgrade. Heritage performs a thorough electrical assessment before installation to determine if your panel can support the additional load safely.
