Future Proof Your Home or Business with EV Chargers
Planning for the EV Shift This Summer
As electric vehicles become more common across Western Canada, there is a growing need for homes and businesses to be ready. The summer season, with increased travel and higher demand on charging networks, highlights just how important reliable EV infrastructure has become. What was once seen as a future upgrade is now a practical and necessary investment.
At EB Horsman & Son, we offer the products, solutions, and expertise to help you stay prepared. Whether you are upgrading your property this season or planning for future growth, EV charging is a key step toward building a space that is ready for what is next.
Choosing the Right Charging Solution
Understanding the different types of EV chargers is key to building a future-ready setup:
- Level 1 Charging: Uses a standard 120V outlet and is best suited for light, overnight charging needs.
- Level 2 Charging: The most common solution, offering faster charging through a 240V power supply—ideal for homes, workplaces, and multi-residential settings.
- Level 3 / DC Fast Charging: High-powered solutions typically installed in commercial and public environments, capable of charging vehicles in as little as 30 minutes.
For most applications, Level 2 chargers strike the right balance between speed, cost, and scalability, making them a popular choice for both residential and commercial installations.
Commercial Charging Stations
Level 2 chargers are the foundation of most commercial EV setups.
They are ideal for locations where vehicles are parked for extended periods, such as workplaces, shopping centres, and multi residential properties. During the summer months, when customers and employees tend to stay longer and travel more frequently, reliable on site charging adds convenience and enhances the overall experience.
