What is Tenet's EV Charger Add-On?

Updated over a week ago

Tenet's EV Charger Add-On allows you to include the cost of a home EV charger and its installation directly into your electric vehicle loan. This means you can finance both your new EV and your charging solution at the same time, so you're ready to hit the road with convenient home charging from day one.

When financing your EV, you have flexibility with what you can include regarding your home charging setup:

  • Both the Charger and Installation: You can finance the purchase of a new home EV charger and the cost to have it professionally installed.

  • Just the Charger: If you plan to install it yourself or use another service, you can finance only the cost of the charger in all the States that Tenet lends in.

  • Just the Installation: If you've already purchased a charger (like a Tesla Wall Connector), we can finance just the cost of its professional installation.

Like all of our other Add-Ons, EV Charger Purchase and/or Installation can be added on top of your max loan amount as part of your monthly payment, without increasing your interest rate.

This Add-On is in partnership with Treehouse, a leading provider of EV charger installation services, and the installation is currently available to residents nationwide in certain zip codes. Fast and convenient, a turnkey, delightful experience. Treehouse does the work for you and will work directly with you. Answer a few simple questions about your home, and Treehouse takes care of the rest. 5-star service along the way. Treehouse has licensed electricians who are dedicated to providing high-quality service with industry-leading safety practices.

If you are applying for a Tenet loan in a supported location, you can add the charger to your loan, if eligible, within your loan application as part of your monthly payment.

With this offering, you can eliminate up-front costs related to Home Charging installation and skip the onerous process of shopping around with local electricians to get bids. With Treehouse and Tenet, you get a fairly priced, convenient, high-quality installation experience with no out-of-pocket cost. Not to mention saving up to $90/month compared to public charging, as well as the time saved not waiting for a charging station to be available.

What if I don't live in a Supported Zip Code?

At this time, the Charger Add-On is only available to residents in certain zip codes. We are continually expanding our presence, so please check back every month.

How does Treehouse provide an accurate price for the installation?

Using your address and the answers you provide in our short survey, Treehouse can accurately price your Home Charging installation. Occasionally, they have to make minor adjustments based on the photos that they receive, but this only occurs in a minority of instances, and you’ll always have the chance to cancel your project if you no longer wish to move forward upon receiving your final project scope and price.

Why does Treehouse need photos of my panel after giving me a price for the installation?

The photos help us finalize your job scope and price, prepare the permit application, and ensure that your electrician has the right equipment on installation day. If you have trouble submitting your photos, you can reach them by calling or texting at 1-323-577-6795 or emailing hello@treehouse.pro, or you can Book a Virtual Consultation with Their Team of Experts here.

Why do I need a permit for EV charging at home?

EV chargers are powerful appliances, so it’s important that the installation is done according to national and local electrical codes and inspected. Without a permit, homeowners insurance may deny your claim in an accident and you may be ineligible for incentives. Superior quality and safety - always performed by a licensed, vetted electrician. Treehouse takes care of permitting.

When will I schedule my installation?

Once Treehouse has reviewed your photos, they'll finalize and share your project requirements for your sign-off. Then, they'll submit the permit application and reach out to you to schedule your installation.

How long does home delivery of the charger take?

It may take 2-3 days for UPS, depending on the region of the country.

How long does home installation take?

Most installations are completed within two hours. Some jobs that require the installation of load management devices can take a half day, and only in rare cases does the job take longer than that.

What happens if I have a question or issue after my installation?

Treehouse is your main point of contact for any questions after your installation. Treehouse installations come with a 12-month labor warranty. Any questions relating to removing the charger after it has been installed, warranty or maintenance, or information on the data or systems, please reach out to Treeshouse. They're available 7 days a week to help you with any questions or problems and can be reached by calling or texting at 1-323-577-6795 or emailing hello@treehouse.pro. You can book a Virtual Consultation with Their Team of Experts here.

How fast will my EV charge?

Charge 8x faster than Level 1, with Level 2 Charging. With a Treehouse installation, most EVs will gain 25-40 miles of charge per hour, which translates to a full charge overnight.

What if my price changes for the installation after my loan is funded?

After you submit photos, it is possible that your price may change compared to your initial estimate. If you submit photos after your loan is funded and your price is reduced, Treehouse works with Tenet to issue a credit to the balance of your loan. If the price increases, Treehouse will charge you directly, outside of the loan, for the price change. You’ll always have the chance to cancel your project if you no longer wish to move forward upon receiving your final project scope and price.
