Reply to comment by Glad-Palpitation292 in Propane Tank Removal by iamthebugwan

We had two installed at separate times over the last 2 years. One is a mitsubishi cold weather and the other is a Haier (also for cold weather). I prefer the mitsubishi because it's a little quieter, but other than that they both are great. Vermont Energy did the mitsu and Catamount solar did the Haier. Both companies were easy to work with, great with communication and installed the units in 3-4 hours. I'd recommend either one to work with.

Speaking of that 3-4 hour install, I had a local contractor quote me 10,000 to install two, in addition to the equipment costs. Even if three people put in an 8 hour day doing two units, by my math that's $416/hour for the install. And the electric work to run the 220 line wasn't included in that number. No thanks.

Oh wow, our experience was nothing like that. We got a flat price that included the unit, labor, and the cost of the electrician.
