"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."
"Amazing company came out for an emergency inspection at 10 o’clock at night was extremely transparent, honest and selfless with us offered to bring his own generator to help my husband when our power was out. Amazing quality company, and amazing individual."
"I got in touch with this company and had an absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. Alex is an amazing person and runs an incredible company."

Not necessarily, but homes from that era often have 100-amp panels that may be near capacity. We'll perform a load calculation during your free assessment to determine if your current panel can handle a 32A or 48A charger, or if a panel upgrade is needed first. Many older Fontana homes can accommodate a charger with some circuit rebalancing.
Hardwired chargers connect directly to your electrical system and are permanently mounted, while plug-in models use a NEMA 14-50 outlet for flexibility. In Fontana's hot summers (often 100°F+), hardwired units typically handle heat stress better since they eliminate the outlet connection point that can loosen over time. Most of our Fontana installations are hardwired for this reason and long-term reliability.
Absolutely—we handle the Southern California Edison rebate application process for Fontana customers as part of our service. We'll provide all necessary documentation including permits and installation photos to help you secure available incentives. The process typically adds no extra time to your installation timeline.
For most drivers, a 32A charger (Level 2) adds about 25-30 miles of range per hour, which fully charges most EVs overnight—plenty for typical Fontana commutes to Ontario, Rancho, or LA. Upgrading to 48A makes sense if you drive 100+ miles daily or have multiple EVs, but it requires a larger breaker and may increase installation costs by $150-$300.
Yes, EV chargers require a dedicated circuit breaker—typically 40A for a 32A charger or 60A for a 48A unit. Most Fontana installations include the appropriate breaker in the $1,299-$1,600 price range, though if your panel is full, we may need to install a tandem breaker or subpanel. We'll assess your specific panel during the site evaluation and provide exact pricing upfront.

Your minimum required panel size is determined by your total electrical load — not just your panel size alone. The calculator checks this against California code in real time.
