In Southwest Florida, sunny skies can turn stormy in an instant. And if you drive an electric vehicle — especially a Tesla — waiting until hurricane season to think about your charging setup is a dangerous gamble.
Every year, homeowners prepare by stocking up on water, fuel, and generators. But one crucial step often gets overlooked: EV charger installation.
Getting your Tesla charger or Level 2 EV charger installed before storm season isn’t just smart. It’s essential.
The Real Risk: EVs Without Power During a Storm
When hurricanes hit, power outages are almost inevitable. Without a reliable home charging solution, your EV risks becoming a powerless brick — leaving you stranded when you need mobility most.
Why Early Installation Matters:
- Grid Outages = EV Inoperability
Once the grid goes down, so does your EV charging — unless you already have a home Tesla charger installed and backed up. - Emergency Installations Are Risky
Electricians are overwhelmed before and after storms. Waiting too long often means delays, price hikes, or no available installers. - Peace of Mind Is Priceless
Knowing your EV is storm-ready gives you confidence. If evacuation becomes necessary, you won’t be dependent on public charging stations that may also be offline.

FAQs: EV Charger Storm Prep
Q: Can a Tesla charger work during a power outage?
A: Not by itself. A Tesla charger must be paired with backup solutions like a Tesla Powerwall, battery storage, or a generator.
Q: How long does a home EV charger installation take in Florida?
A: Most installations are completed in 1–2 days. However, appointment availability shrinks as storm season approaches.
Q: Does Eric’s Electrical Services also install surge protection?
A: Yes! We recommend whole-home surge protection as part of our hurricane prep package to safeguard both your charger and your home.
