Illustrative electric car charging at a home; the charger and layout are not a confirmed Vireo design.
Illustrative installation. Final equipment and layout depend on survey and design.

Come home.
Plug in.

Explore a home chargepoint that fits your car, parking space and routine. A practical plan starts with where you park, how you drive and the electrical setup at your property.

Online planner coming soon

Make charging part of coming home.

Email Vireo with your postcode, where you park and the car you have or are considering. We can discuss your interest and confirm availability and next steps. Online planning is coming soon.

  • Your parking space considered
  • Your car and routine in view
  • Clear next steps

A practical place to plug in.

The useful details are often the everyday ones: the side you park on, where the car's charging socket sits and how you want to manage the cable.

Fit your parking space

Consider the position and cable route around the way you arrive and leave.

Fit your driving routine

Share your usual mileage and when the car is parked at home to help frame the charging discussion.

Consider the wider home

Mention solar panels, a home battery or future energy plans so compatibility can be considered early.

The right connection for your routine.

Think about everyday handling as well as appearance. Charger features vary, so the final choice needs to suit your car and installation.

An attached cable

A tethered chargepoint has a permanently attached cable. Its length and storage position need to work with your parking.

A separate cable

An untethered chargepoint has a socket for a separate charging cable. Consider where the cable will be kept between uses.

Smart charging features

Discuss scheduling and any solar or tariff integration you want. Compatibility needs checking for the proposed charger and setup.

Charging speed depends on the car as well as the chargepoint and electrical supply. A higher charger rating alone does not guarantee faster charging.

Plan from the parking space inwards.

Email is the first step for now. Availability and the route to a survey or proposal will be confirmed before you make a commitment.

  1. 01

    Tell us about your car

    Share the model you have or are considering and how you usually use it.

  2. 02

    Show where you park

    Describe your driveway, garage or allocated space and where you would like the chargepoint.

  3. 03

    Review the property

    Any installation needs the electrical supply, cable route, access and relevant permissions assessed.

  4. 04

    Understand the proposal

    Before proceeding, the charger, installation scope, controls and price should be clear.

A chargepoint needs a considered position.

The location should work for daily use as well as the electrical installation. Tell us about shared parking or rented property at the start.

  • Parking location and permission to install
  • Vehicle connection and charging capability
  • Chargepoint position and cable reach
  • Electrical supply and connection requirements
  • Cable route, access and any groundworks
  • Desired controls and solar or battery compatibility

Could solar be part of your charging plan?

If solar is on your list, discuss it alongside the chargepoint. When the car is at home and the compatibility of the equipment will shape the options.

Explore solar PV

Before you begin.

The honest answer matters more than the quickest one.

What is the difference between tethered and untethered?

A tethered charger has a cable attached. An untethered charger has a socket for a separate cable. The choice comes down to compatibility, cable handling and how you want the parking space to work.

How long will it take to charge my car?

That depends on the car's charging capability, battery size, how much charge it needs and the chargepoint's available power. Share your vehicle details so the discussion reflects your car rather than a generic charging time.

Can I use solar electricity to charge my car?

A suitable setup can use solar generation for charging, but the available generation and when the car is plugged in both matter. The charger, controls and existing solar equipment need a compatibility review.

Can I get a charger if I rent or have shared parking?

Tell us about the property and parking arrangement before choosing equipment. Permission, access and the electrical route need to be considered. Email Vireo to discuss whether a home installation is a practical option; online planning is coming soon.
