I had a 40 Gal hot water tank installed for close to $1400.00 dollars.
(The tank is worth maybe $600.00). I was at work when my wife
phoned about the pilot light going out on the old one.The tech said he could not fix it and the burner needed replacement.(1 to 2 week on replacement) He then said it would be a $300.00 service call, but would wave it if we bought a new tank.
And stupid us...this is what we did.
The tank only has a 8 year life with 1 year warranty from them.
I have never heard of a company charging install fees of approx.
$700.00 for services like this. Going to BBB to complain.
- Approximate cost of services:
- $1,400.00
