Smart EV Charging Installation

Smarter, safer and more efficient EV charging for your home

The electric car revolution has started and with it many car manufacturers and governments have made commitments to move away from the combustion engine.
As the world shifts towards more sustainable and environmentally friendly modes of transportation, the demand for efficient and convenient electric vehicle (EV) charging solutions is on the rise. One of the most effective ways to ensure your electric vehicle is always ready to go is by installing a dedicated 7kW home charge point.  
At Surrey Smarthome, we specialise in smart EV charger installation across Surrey and South West London helping you embrace the future of transportation with ease.

Smart EV Charging Features

Lowering bills and maximising efficiency

Intelligent Charging Control

Charging can be scheduled during off-peak hours to reduce electricity costs. As a result, you benefit from lower bills without changing your routine.
 
If you are on an Octopus Agile tariff charging can be set to automatically start when electricity is at its cheapest whilst also making sure your car is fully charged when you need it to be.

Solar & Renewable Integration

If your home has solar panels, your EV charger can prioritise free, renewable energy. This means your car charges using excess solar power rather than drawing from the grid.

This approach maximises efficiency and reduces reliance on external energy sources. It also supports a more sustainable way of living.

Load Balancing & Energy Management

Using  a Loxone EV charger with a Loxone smathome means your energy is intelligently balanced across your home. When multiple devices are running, the system automatically adjusts charging power to prevent overload.

This ensures your home remains safe while still charging your vehicle efficiently. You don’t need to worry about  exceeding your supply capacity.

App Control & Monitoring

You can monitor and control your EV charging from your smartphone. Check charging status, adjust schedules, and view energy usage in real time.

This gives you full visibility and control, whether you are at home or away.

Seamless Smart Home Integration

Your EV charger becomes part of a complete smart home system. It works alongside lighting, heating, and energy management to optimise overall performance.

For example, your home can prioritise energy use automatically, ensuring your EV charges at the most efficient times without manual input.

What Smart People Say About Us

“Adam is an excellent electrician with expertise in smart home systems and the installation of EV chargers. He has been our go to person for all electrical needs since he installed several devices during the construction of our new house. His expertise with smart home systems was invaluable when ours was damaged in a thunderstorm recently. Adam quickly diagnosed the problem and also installed a power surge device to prevent a recurrence. Last year, Adam installed an EV Charger for us and dealt with all the required approvals on our behalf. He did an excellent job and the charger continues to perform perfectly. I can highly recommend his services.”

Installing a 7kW home charge point offers numerous benefits over using a standard 13-amp plug. Firstly, it significantly reduces the charging time, allowing you to get back on the road faster. A dedicated 7kW charger can charge your electric car up to three times faster than a regular household socket, providing you with greater convenience and flexibility.

Moreover, many modern charge points come equipped with smart features that can be controlled via an app on your phone. This enables you to monitor and manage your charging sessions remotely. With the app, you can set charging schedules to take advantage of off-peak electricity rates, saving you money on your energy bills. Some charge points even offer features like energy usage tracking and integration with smart home systems, making your charging experience seamless and efficient.

Yes, you can integrate your EV charger with your solar panel system to create a more efficient and sustainable charging solution. When set up correctly, your charger can prioritise using excess solar energy generated during the day.

This means your vehicle charges using free, renewable power rather than relying on electricity from the grid. As a result, you reduce your energy bills and lower your carbon footprint.

A smart EV charging system can also be configured to automatically charge your car when solar production is at its highest. This ensures you make the most of your renewable energy without needing to manage it manually.

Choosing the right installer is just as important as choosing the charger itself. At Surrey Smart Home, we bring extensive experience in installing a wide range of EV charging systems across Surrey and South West London.

We work with leading brands such as Rolec, Easee, Zappi, Wallbox, Tesla, Ohme, and Loxone. This allows us to recommend the best solution based on your property, usage, and future needs.

Our certified team ensures every installation is completed safely, efficiently, and to a high professional standard. In addition, we specialise in smart home integration, meaning your EV charger can work seamlessly with your lighting, heating, and energy systems.

Whether you need a simple home charger or a fully integrated smart solution, we design systems that are reliable, future-proof, and easy to use.

You do not need to be worried about unauthorised use of your charge point. Charging sessions or schedules can only be started using the loxone App. Also the smarthome system can be configured so that if ‘Away Mode’ is active the charge point is locked.
