Evgo charging station in Florida
Last updated: September 24, 2026
EvChargerInstallation Pros serves Florida, encompassing the vibrant metros of Orlando, Pembroke Pines, Hollywood, Gainesville, and Sunrise. The state's subtropical climate, marked by high humidity, frequent rainfall, and intense sun exposure, dictates specific installation considerations.
Florida's climate necessitates the use of UV-resistant conduit and corrosion-proof materials for exterior installations, protecting the EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment) from degradation due to constant sun and salt air exposure in coastal areas. We ensure all installations comply with NEC Article 625 and local amendments, paying close attention to grounding and bonding requirements to mitigate lightning strike risks. The diverse housing stock, ranging from newer constructions to older homes, requires careful evaluation of existing electrical systems. Many Florida residences, particularly those built before the widespread adoption of EVs, may require substantial electrical panel upgrades or new service installations to support the continuous high amperage draw of a Level 2 charger.
Common questions
What is the lifespan of a level 2 charger?
The operational lifespan of a Level 2 charger is generally extended through robust engineering and quality component selection. With proper installation and adherence to manufacturer specifications, most residential Level 2 EV chargers are designed to provide reliable service for 10 to 15 years, or even longer, assuming consistent maintenance and protection from extreme environmental factors.
