EV charger installation in Kenmore Hills
A 7kW home charger adds around 40km of range an hour, and with solar it can cost close to nothing.
EV Charger Installation Kenmore Hills: local, honest, done right
A standard power point adds only about 10km of range an hour. A dedicated 7kW wall charger is around four times faster, and a solar-aware charger can soak up your surplus solar during the day instead of exporting it for a few cents.
We check your switchboard and main supply, recommend single or three phase charging, and install the charger neatly where your car actually parks. In Kenmore Hills we can also pair the charger with new solar or a battery so it all works together.
Brisbane's west takes in leafy riverside suburbs like Indooroopilly, Kenmore and Chapel Hill, the Centenary suburbs, and hillier, tree-lined streets around The Gap, Ashgrove and Ferny Grove where shading needs careful planning. We look after Kenmore Hills and the surrounding suburbs of Chapel Hill, Kenmore and Brookfield, so a free on-site measure in 4069 is easy to book.

About Kenmore Hills
Formerly part of Brookfield, the area took the Kenmore Hills name in 1969. A house on Brookfield Road became a home for aged men in 1932, and two years later St Christopher's Lodge opened as a farm school for boys, running until about 1959. The site later became a Franciscan friary, and the Uniting Church bought it in 2019 on condition the community keeps access.
Foothill slopes give some roofs a great northern aspect and leave others in the afternoon shadow of the hills or tall trees, so a site visit to model real sun hours is time well spent.

Call 0449 942 735How much does it cost to install an EV charger?

Can I charge my EV from solar?
Yes. A solar-aware charger adjusts its charging speed to match your surplus solar, so you use your own power instead of exporting it. It works best if the car is home during the day.
Do I need three phase power?
No. Most homes are well served by a 7kW single phase charger, which comfortably fills most cars overnight. Three phase allows 11kW to 22kW if your home already has it.
