Electrical Service Upgrade
If your home has less than 200-amp electrical service, consider upgrading your electric service to prepare your home for clean energy.
Why Should You Consider an Electrical Service Upgrade?
Your home’s electrical service determines how much electricity your appliances can use. Older homes typically have less than 200-amp electrical service. Electrical service upgrades increase your home’s value, prepare it for clean energy solutions like heat pumps and electric vehicles, and enable the installation of additional electric appliances in the future.

How To Upgrade Your Electrical Service
Talk to an electrician about how to upgrade your electrical service. A licensed electrician will perform the upgrade and work with your local permitting agency to ensure the job is code-compliant. This upgrade typically takes one day to complete, and usually costs $2,500 to $4,500, but can be more depending on your home.
