EV charger installation in Waterford West
A 7kW home charger adds around 40km of range an hour, and with solar it can cost close to nothing.
EV Charger Installation Waterford West: 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 Waterford West we can also pair the charger with new solar or a battery so it all works together.
Logan blends established suburbs such as Springwood, Shailer Park and Browns Plains with new communities at Yarrabilba, Park Ridge and Logan Reserve, plus acreage through Jimboomba, Greenbank and Munruben. We look after Waterford West and the surrounding suburbs of Loganlea, Logan Reserve and Waterford, so a free on-site measure in 4133 is easy to book.

About Waterford West
John Cameron put land at Waterford North and South up for auction in April 1885, but houses only started appearing in the 1970s. A drive-in opened in 1974, the same year two homes were swept away in the floods while the bridge held. Waterford was divided in 1978, and Waterford West became a suburb in its own right in 1987, the year Marsden State High School opened.
With the Logan River and Tygum Lagoon close by and a history of flooding in 1974, households here should site batteries and switchgear above likely flood levels.

Still unsure? Talk to us directly. You will speak with the people who do the work.
Call 0449 942 735How much does it cost to install an EV charger?
A 7kW charger is typically $1,000 to $2,300 installed. If your switchboard needs an upgrade, allow another $800 to $2,200. We give a fixed price after a quick check.
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.
