Complete an On-Site Consultation (if Necessary)

For complex jobs, a Qmerit certified installer will assess the scope of work and check the electrical panel in person. For most jobs, this step isn’t necessary.

Accept Your Quote

Once the project has been defined, you’ll receive an installation quote.

After you accept the quote, a Qmerit certified installer will set up the installation appointment. You’ll also receive a reminder email from Qmerit.

Get It Installed

The end-to-end process depends on your local municipality’s permitting and receipt of your charger. You can expect complete installation within three to six weeks after submitting the initial online assessment and paying the fully refundable deposit.

Once installation is complete, your Qmerit certified installer will clean up, review instructions with you and ensure you’re 100% satisfied.
