EV Charger Installation in New Orleans & Metairie
Power Up at Home with a Professionally Installed Electric Vehicle Charger
Making the switch to an electric vehicle is a smart move—but if you're still relying on a basic wall outlet to charge it, you’re missing out on speed, convenience, and safety. A properly installed home EV charger gives you reliable power when you need it, without overloading your home’s electrical system.
We install electric car chargers across New Orleans and Metairie for homeowners who want faster charging, cleaner setups, and peace of mind that everything’s wired right. Whether you’re in Lakeview, Old Metairie, or down by the Marigny, we’ll make sure your EV setup runs as smoothly as your ride.
Installing a home EV charging station doesn’t just add convenience—it can also unlock serious savings. Homeowners in New Orleans and Metairie may qualify for a mix of cash incentives through Entergy, federal tax credits for clean energy upgrades, and ENERGY STAR rebates that make going electric more affordable. With the Inflation Reduction Act, you could receive up to 30% back on your EV charger installation. We’ll help you navigate the available incentives, ensure your installation meets all code and utility requirements, and set up a charging system that’s fast, reliable, and built to last.
Why Install a Level 2 EV Charger at Home?
Sure, you can charge your car on a standard 120V outlet—but if you’ve ever waited overnight just to gain 30 miles of range, you already know the limitations. A Level 2 charger uses 240V power to charge your EV up to 5–6 times faster, getting you back on the road without the wait.
If you live in areas like Broadmoor, Bucktown, or River Ridge where daily commutes or weekend drives are the norm, a faster charge makes a real difference. No more timing trips around public stations or worrying about whether your range will cover your errands.
And with a properly installed charger at home, you’re charging safely and efficiently—without stressing your breakers or risking overloads.
Installation That’s Done Right the First Time
Every home is different, and not all electrical panels are ready to handle a new high-voltage circuit. Before we install anything, we take a look at your current setup—checking panel capacity, breaker availability, and the best path to run a new line to your charger location.
In older homes near the French Quarter or Carrollton, that might mean a panel upgrade or adding a subpanel. In newer homes out in Elmwood or Kenner, it might be a straightforward install with some extra planning around conduit runs or garage access.
Either way, we keep the process simple and transparent. No guesswork, no surprise costs—just a safe, code-compliant installation that’s built to last.
Compatible With All EV Brands
We’ve installed chargers for every major electric vehicle brand out there: Tesla, Ford, Chevy, Rivian, Nissan, BMW, and more. Whether you’re using a Tesla Wall Connector, a ChargePoint unit, or something that came bundled with your EV, we’ll make sure it’s installed correctly and functioning at full capacity.
Not sure which charger is right for your car or your home? We’ll walk you through the options based on your driving habits, available amperage, and any smart features you might want—like Wi-Fi connectivity, scheduling, or app-based monitoring.
Indoor, Outdoor, or Carport Installs
Charging setups in New Orleans and Metairie can be just about anywhere: enclosed garages near Mid-City, raised driveways in Uptown, or detached carports out by Lafreniere Park. We’re experienced with all kinds of environments and know how to protect your wiring and equipment from heat, moisture, and exposure.
If you need trenching, a weatherproof enclosure, or a creative conduit route that doesn’t ruin your home’s look, we’ve got it covered. We treat your property with care and respect—like we’d want someone to treat ours.
