[Shop-talk] water heating installation

[Pat Horne]

It never hurts to get more estimates. 

I had a furnace flue installed in my shop that took about 2 hours. It went through a metal roof, up the outside of the building about 5’, then through the overhang on the second floor - also metal. I supplied most of the materials & they charged $500. This was last year in Texas. 

Just guessing, but northern homes have basements, which will either require a longer flue or a power vent, which can be quite expensive. 

Peace,
Pat

We need to replace an aging electric water heater before it fails. We are switching to gas. Does close to $3000 for a 75 gallon and labor (including the venting) sound right to you all? We live in southern WI. 
thanks
