Message: [QUOTE="Lefty2one, post: 3987785, member: 1001"] They're ruthless when it comes to taking advantage of people. When we got our central air installed, initially they were going to put the condenser on the opposite side of the house from the furnace and our main electrical panel. They said it'd be $1k for the electrician to get a 220 line to the compressor. I wasn't thrilled, but whatever, it wasn't an easy run since our house is a split-level. The day of the installation comes and they ask if they can put the compressor in a different location, outside of the house right next to the electrical panel. I said sure, that's fine. The electrician came out and spent about 30 minutes running the line, now a simple 10 ft run through one wall, instead of 100+ ft through challenging circumstances, and they still tried to bill me $1k. I told them there was zero chance I was paying that amount, and they agreed to knock it in half. I still got ripped off. [/QUOTE]
