"There is the BEST local solar/car charging needs. Very honest reliable and you will be getting the best deal in the valley hands down. I highly recommend hiring them I have solars for over 15 years and my inverter quit working one day last month and a technician was at my property within 1 hr and my inverter was replaced within a week under warranty 0 cost out of my pocket."
"Stopped by today to get real information about solar for my home. Alex was very straightforward with what was needed. His knowledge of solar spans over 20+years. I feel confident that his business will be the best decision my wife and I will make this year."
"ElectriCare sent 2 experienced techs to our home to troubleshoot a problem with our solar that was made by another company a few years ago. Within 1 hour, these 2 techs found and fixed 2 wiring mistakes made by the other company. ElectriCare is a great company from the office staff to the hard working techs."
"I had multiple issues with my solar system collectively and as offline for almost two years. I contacted ElectriCare and was so impressed with their responsiveness. Allen came out to my home after a couple of email exchanges with pics and to clarify the issues I had."
Hardwired chargers are more common in Aliso Viejo installations because they're permanently connected, tamper-proof, and don't require a NEMA 14-50 outlet that takes up breaker space. Plug-in models offer portability if you move, but most homeowners in neighborhoods like Pacific Park and The Highlands prefer the cleaner hardwired look. Both options typically install in the $1,299-$1,600 range depending on your electrical panel location and distance to the garage.
A 32-amp charger works great for most EVs and adds about 25-30 miles of range per hour, which is plenty for overnight charging in Aliso Viejo's mild climate where you're not dealing with extreme cold affecting battery performance. If you have a larger EV like a Rivian or drive over 100 miles daily, a 48-amp charger delivers faster charging but requires a larger 60-amp breaker and thicker wire. We'll assess your electrical panel capacity and driving needs during the site evaluation to recommend the right fit.
Most homes in Aliso Viejo built after 2000 have 200-amp panels with enough capacity, but we need to verify you have available breaker slots and that your current electrical load leaves room for the 40-60 amp circuit required. If your panel is at capacity, we may need to install a load management device or upgrade the panel, which the Aliso Viejo Building Department requires to be permitted properly. Our technicians will evaluate your specific panel during the free site assessment.
Yes, we help Aliso Viejo customers navigate the Southern California Edison rebate application process, which can provide up to $800 back on your installation. We'll provide all necessary documentation including itemized invoices and proof of installation that SCE requires, and we can guide you through the online submission portal. The rebate doesn't reduce our upfront installation cost of $1,299-$1,600, but you'll receive the reimbursement directly from SCE within 6-8 weeks of approval.
Not necessarily—many homes built in the 1980s and 1990s in areas like Wood Canyon can support EV chargers if the main panel has adequate capacity and available breaker space. We do need to verify that your existing wiring meets current code and that aluminum wiring (common in some older homes) is properly terminated. Our electricians will inspect your specific setup and provide an honest assessment; most installations stay within the $1,299-$1,600 range unless a panel upgrade is truly needed.
