At Alesta Services, we specialize in the installation of various types of Electric Vehicle (EV) chargers, ensuring that every customer finds the right solution for their needs. Here’s a look at the different types of EV chargers we handle and what our service entails:
1. Level 1 Chargers
Level 1 chargers are the most basic type of EV charger and use a standard 120-volt outlet. They are typically used for home charging and are suitable for drivers who have overnight charging times. While they are slower compared to other types, they are a cost-effective option for many EV owners.
2. Level 2 Chargers
Level 2 chargers operate on a 240-volt outlet, similar to a dryer or oven, and provide a much faster charging speed compared to Level 1. They are ideal for home use as well as commercial installations. Our team can help you choose and install a Level 2 charger that meets your daily driving needs and fits seamlessly into your existing electrical setup.
3. DC Fast Chargers
DC Fast Chargers are designed for rapid charging and are typically found in public charging stations. They can charge an EV to 80% in about 30 minutes. While these chargers are not typically installed at home, we can assist businesses or commercial properties interested in installing DC Fast Chargers.
4. Smart Chargers
Smart chargers come with advanced features such as Wi-Fi connectivity, app control, and energy monitoring. These chargers allow users to track charging times, set schedules, and monitor energy usage remotely. We offer expert installation and configuration of smart chargers to enhance your EV charging experience.
