As more people are concerned about reducing their carbon footprint and taking up sustainable practices, electric vehicles are growing in popularity. Electric vehicles are better for the environment since they don’t run on gas. They will also save you money since you’ll never have to use the pump again.
There are many benefits to owning an electric vehicle, but they’re not quite popular enough yet to find charging stations as regularly as you find gas stations. Wouldn’t it be more convenient to have an electric vehicle home charging station at home? With Art Plumbing, Air Conditioning & Electric, now you can!
Read on to learn more about the benefits of having these charging stations right on your own property.
From saving money to saving the environment, the list of benefits to home charging stations keeps on growing. Here is just a sample of them:
After the initial installation fee, your electric bill will be less compared to what you’ll pay at public charging stations. You can even use the data showing how much energy you’ve saved for a tax write-off. Not only that, but these stations can also be solar powered – and Florida is, after all, the Sunshine State.
Depending on your vehicle, it can take anywhere from one to seven hours to fully charge it up. For many reasons, it’s just not feasible to wait around that long in a public place. But wouldn’t it be nice to fully charge your car in one good night’s sleep?
You just can’t beat the ease of charging your car from home: no wandering around, wasting battery trying to find a public station. No more time spent waiting in line and then waiting around for it to be ready. Just plug it in on your own property and watch a movie, cook dinner, or do whatever else you need to do.
There are some similarities between EV batteries and iPhone batteries: mainly that they become less effective the more you use them. Constant use will result in an inability to hold as much power. In this situation, being able to charge your car at home is ideal.
Electric vehicles are the way of the future. In time, having an electric charger on your property will greatly increase the value of your home when it’s time to sell it. This is a great way to make your home stand out on the market.
Soon there will be as many electric vehicles as there are gas-powered vehicles, from many different manufacturers. Home chargers are made to accommodate any type of manufacturer, so you will have the option of choosing different brands in the future. If you have more than one type of electric vehicle, they can both take turns charging with the same unit at home.
If you’re thinking of investing in an electric vehicle, Art Plumbing, Air Conditioning & Electric can help with the installation of a home charging station.
