Anyone confirm if this is the right ballpark? I guess it's been too long since I had this done. (I was expecting half that price)
Make sure they install properly so you can get a hose on the drain faucet. Ours was cockeyed and inside the drip pan (installed by previous owner) and we couldn’t drain our tank. Called the installer who wasn’t the least concerned about the issue. Wanted to charge $85 to look at it. Will never use them. Hubby cut a notch in the drip pan...free!
