Add the ChargePoint® Home System to Your Solar Setup

Are you looking to cut rising gas prices out of your life? Electric vehicles are exploding in popularity, and charging your vehicle with a reliable and safe charging station is now easier than ever. The ChargePoint Home system is world’s smartest and smallest home charging station, and can help you utilize your home’s solar panel system to keep your car charged and ready to go at all times.

Home EV charging

Why Choose the ChargePoint Home?

The ChargePoint Home can fill your EV’s batteries up to six times faster than your standard 110v home outlet, and does so through a standard J1772™ connector. However, it’s more than just performance-driven—it’s also convenient, and works with Nest, Amazon Alexa, and other smart home systems to provide real-time energy usage and control with the touch of a button or sound of your voice.

The system also receives automatic updates to the latest software upgrades over WiFi, and you can use the ChargePoint mobile app to set charging reminders, remote-start and stop your charging, and even schedule charging for non-peak hours. The system will even identify your utility provider to recommend the best time to charge in order to avoid peak rates and save you more money.

What Is the Maintenance for EV Chargers?

There are two main types of maintenance for EV chargers: preventive and corrective.

  • Preventive maintenance is performed regularly to prevent issues. This includes:
    • Cleaning the charger, cord, and connectors (weekly)
    • Checking the operability of the charger (regularly)
    • Inspecting the power supply and wiring (regularly)
    • Checking the charging ports for damage (regularly)
  • Corrective maintenance addresses problems that have already occurred. This may involve:
    • Replacing a damaged cable
    • Repairing a broken connector

The specific maintenance tasks depend on the type of EV charger, manufacturer recommendations, and location. Following a regular maintenance schedule ensures your EV charger operates safely and efficiently.

Some EV charger manufacturers offer maintenance plans covering preventive maintenance and necessary repairs, helping keep your charger in top condition.
