How much does an installed charger cost in Laval?

For Laval, the price of a FLO installed on a single-family home, charger included, is in the written quote, free of charge. That is for a standard installation: a panel that still has room and a charger not too far from it.

The installation includes the charger, the breaker and materials, the cable over a normal distance, the municipal permit, commissioning and testing.

What adds to the price: a panel to upgrade, a detached garage, a cable that has to run a long way. For your home, the exact price is in the quote, given free of charge after the visit.

Expect the installation usually two weeks out.

Écorecharge: what the $600 covers

Through its Écorecharge program, Québec grants $600 to anyone who owns an electric vehicle and has a charger installed at home.

The $600 applies to the price of a connected charger on the program’s official list, not to the installation. The charger must cost at least $600 before taxes.

You apply after the work: the rebate isn’t deducted from our invoice. The program’s framework ends on March 31, 2028.

Since March 17, 2026, financial assistance for charging stations has been part of the new Écorecharge program. The program is run by the Québec government, and you apply on Québec.ca.

Does the City of Laval help with a charger?

Not at the moment. As of November 1, 2026, the City of Laval’s financial assistance page listed 13 programs, and none of them covered an EV charger.

In Laval, the help available for a home charger is therefore Écorecharge. You apply for the rebate yourself, with our invoices.

House, semi-detached or condo: where the charger goes

Attached garage: that’s the simplest. The charger goes on the garage wall, as close to the panel as possible.

No garage, or a garage used for something else? The charger, then an outdoor model, goes on the wall of the house, on the driveway side.

A condo in an apartment building falls under a different Écorecharge stream, and we assess the building’s capacity before talking about chargers; our article on chargers in apartment buildings covers that stream.

That stream is more generous: from three units up, and for a condo in a building, it goes up to $5,000 for an individual charger. An infrastructure stream also pays 50% of eligible expenses, up to $120,000 per building, before taxes.

Can your panel take a charger?

Before proposing anything, we do the home’s load calculation; the Code updated on March 26, 2026 requires it to account for the charger. Three possible answers: the charger fits as is, it fits with load management, or more capacity is needed.

Tight panel? The Thermolec DCC-9, a load controller, keeps the charger from running at the same time as another large load. In many houses, it’s what saves redoing the service entrance; not in all of them.

If more capacity is needed, our page on electrical panel replacement in Laval explains the rest.

The FLO Home X3, the charger we install most often

House, garage or outdoor parking: our chargers are Level 2.

The FLO Home X3 is the charger that comes up most often in our installations: connected, Level 2, designed in Canada, it goes up to 50 A. We set its current based on your home’s load calculation.

Its warranty, limited to 3 years for residential use, is FLO’s, under the manufacturer’s warranty in force since September 1, 2025.

Your project, in three steps

1. The visit. We look at your panel, your parking spot and the cable’s route, and we do the load calculation.

2. The work. We run a dedicated 240 V circuit, mount the charger, get the permit if the city asks for one, and declare the work to the Régie du bâtiment du Québec.

3. The test. With your vehicle plugged in, we make sure charging starts at the right current, then set up the app with you.
