Serving Ellington, CT
Charge Home Solutions brings Level 2 EV charger installation, Tesla Powerwall battery backup, electrical panel upgrades, and full residential electrical service to Ellington, in Tolland County, and the neighborhoods around it. Ellington's roughly 16,000 residents make it a notable Tolland County market for EV charger installation, whole-home battery backup, and electrical modernization.
Nor'easters and tropical storms keep backup power in demand in Connecticut. At the same time, cold winters and high electricity rates make efficiency and capacity key, so capacity and efficiency matter on every job.
Surge protection and grounding upgrades quietly protect Ellington homes full of sensitive electronics, and they are inexpensive insurance against storm-driven spikes. EV-ready pre-wiring is the smart move for Ellington homeowners planning ahead, we run the conduit and capacity now so your future charger is a simple plug-in later.
Because we are Tesla Energy Certified, Ellington Wall Connector and Powerwall installs are done to manufacturer spec and stay under warranty. We work with Eversource and United Illuminating. We pull the permit, coordinate inspection, and hand you the documentation.
Most Ellington homes are served by Eversource / United Illuminating, and we handle the interconnection and permitting that come with adding an EV charger or battery on that system. Energy Storage Solutions payments can offset part of the cost, and we identify what applies at your address during the free estimate.
Panel work is where every electrification project starts or stalls. Our Ellington electricians run a real load calculation before recommending anything: many homes have more spare capacity than owners expect, and smart load management often avoids a $1,500–$4,000 upgrade entirely. When the upgrade is genuinely needed, it's one day of work and decades of headroom.
Older housing stock brings specific electrical needs: fuse boxes and 60–100A services that predate modern loads, aluminum branch wiring from the late 1960s, and panels from brands like Federal Pacific and Zinsco with documented failure histories. We identify these during any Ellington assessment and give you straight answers, repair, remediate, or replace, with real prices for each.
Standby generators remain the answer for extended outages: an automatic transfer switch starts the generator seconds after the grid fails and your Ellington home keeps running indefinitely on fuel. Sizing matters, essentials-only backup needs far less than whole-home with A/C, and our free assessment includes the load audit that gets it right.
Here's what working with us in Ellington looks like. First, a licensed electrician visits your home for a free assessment, checking the panel, measuring runs, and running the load calculation. You get a fixed, written quote on the spot or the same day. Work is scheduled at your convenience, the Tolland County permit is pulled before we start, and inspection is coordinated after. Most single-service jobs finish in one visit.
