FAQ
Don't know where to start? Here are some answers to some frequently asked questions.
DO YOU OWN OR RENT?
Renters need landlord approval before proceeding. Some homeowner associations (HOA) may also require approval. Customers must confirm approval on the EV Install Form in order to submit their installation request.
WHAT TYPE OF HOME DO YOU HAVE?
- Single family homes may qualify, provided they have an attached garage or wish to charge in their driveway
- Condos, Duplexes, and Townhomes need a dedicated meter for a standard installation
- Non-primary residences with Canada are eligible for the non-standard installation
- Apartments are not eligible for the installation promotion. Customers should be redirected to a Flo Public Charging Credit
DO YOU HAVE AN ATTACHED OR DETACHED GARAGE?
- With a detached garage, a standard installation would require installation of the outlet on the primary structure where the main panel is located. The customer would need to park in the driveway to plug in the charger outside.
- EV Specialists and other dealer personal are asked to defer to BMEV to assist customers with making the determination of standard vs. not standard for their specific installation. Contact your Dueck Sales and Leasing Consultant for more information or to answer more specific questions.

HOW DOES A CUSTOMER RECEIVE FLO CREDIT?

If the email address provided is linked to an existing Flo account the credit will be loaded there, otherwise Flo will contact the customer to create a new account.
