i was charged 160 for this when they came to install mine.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.They just installed my new Bosch 500 series. It is a hardwired installation. As long as the installation kit is purchase they will install it as a hardwired installation.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.We had to have items ready hookup etc. Still man charged for draining installation which was never mentioned in preparation information. I thought those items included in installation kit but wasn’t, my husband bought and had them there. $211 for labor my mother paid. And that installation sucked and didn’t work pass first use.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Absolutely hire an electrician. A a ground wire is essential
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Your installers will not do electrical work such as that.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I was told if it was possible to hardwire again they would hardwire. If the wire of the new one was not long enough they would charge an estimated $200 for a grounded plug.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can have the installers put on a plug to the dishwasher. It's part of the installation kit they sell. They are not allowed to remove the old hardwired cable or do any electrical other than to plug it into an existing outlet. They can reuse the old wiring if it's still in good shape. If you are unsure I'd spring for an electrician.
