We need a new water heater, and I can't decide if we should go gas or electric. I was wondering if someone could give me price estimates for the upgrades required for either one.
If we stick with gas like we have we will have to pay someone to bring everything up to code, the water heater sits in a small laundry closet and is not properly vented.
If we go with electric we will have to have our service upgraded.
The laundry closet has an outside wall. We live in a one story house. For gas upgrades we will have to pay for all the work. For electric we will only have to pay for parts as my brother-in-law is a licensed electrician and is willing to do the work for free.
Not interested in hearing the advantages of electric or gas over the other. Just curious about costs for the upgrades to the house. Thanks
