Why Install an EV Charger
Charging at home is faster, cheaper, and more convenient than public charging. Most homes charge overnight when electricity is cheaper. If you’ve got solar panels, chargers like the Zappi can use surplus solar energy to charge for free. And as electric cars become more common, having home charging becomes more valuable.
Which Charger Should You Choose?
Zappi. Made by MyEnergi, a British manufacturer. The Zappi is brilliant if you’ve got solar panels or you want maximum features. It has eco and eco+ modes that automatically divert surplus solar to your car. It’s compatible with smart energy tariffs like Octopus Go and Intelligent Octopus. Available as tethered (cable attached) or untethered (you supply the cable).
Hypervolt. A reliable, straightforward charger. No frills, but excellent build quality and reliability. Good if you just want a solid charger without the extra features.
Ohme. Smart charger with app control. Good for people who want flexibility and control over when they charge, especially if they’re on a smart energy tariff.
York-Specific Considerations
York’s got a lot of Victorian terraces, listed buildings, and period properties. Some have no driveways. We understand the challenges of older housing and we know how to work with listed building controls if needed. We’ve installed chargers at terraced houses with on-street parking, Victorian period homes, and new builds on the city outskirts. Whatever your property type, we’ll find a solution.
