Hi, What do you think I can expect to pay for installation? Any comments so I can get a ball park figure, is appreciated...

I got a local bid here in VA. $1600 installed by a professional. I installed mine personally and spent <$50 to include the new breaker.

My son in law is an HVAC guy and will be installing mine. I'm sure prices vary regionally but he said if you had the parts and hired installation in Northern Utah it would be $300-$500. He also said this was a good quality home humidifier. Good luck!

Installed mine myself. I used Plumb PEX and some various electrical items spent $63.00 and my time (about 2.5 hrs). Sorry I can not be of any further help!

The instructions say you can just run a wire from the Aprilaire 800 to the (provided) humidistat. But, if you do this how will it know when the furnace fan is on? Will The A. 800 just and steam without fan running?(Please, note I don't want to buy or use etc pressure switch or (optional) fan pack.)

That sounds really high to me. The thing that cost me the most was the extra wiring - I had to put in 3 more 220 lines. But my son installed it for me, so I didn't have to pay labor. If I were you, I'd get another couple of quotes and if you need more wiring, make sure they include that too. My total cost was about $1,100, including the heater.

Oh Snap!Did you just check amazon's website everyday to see the price drop? Thats what I'm looking for, to spend 2150, i'd pull the trigger.did you mount yours on the wall? i'm planning on and also need to figure out what mount to purchase

Morning, I would suggest buying it. Reason being - if you need it, and you are having the new unit installed at say, Best Buy - the cost of the wiring harness from them - could be 29.99 - not including installation cost.

I bought it too but there are no instructions for installation. It's still sitting in my closet. Let me know if you find the installation instructions. Cheers!

No you have to buy the duplex stuff to install it, it's about $ 90.00 on EBay. I hope my answer did help you in your decision making.

You will need additional hardware, its a p.o.s. I would look for a different system.

I had mine installed at a best buy so I don't recall any parts I had to get to go with it. Best buy installed it for like $50-65 though. Worth it to me.

Check out very similar instructions at http://whelen.com/install/130/13015.pdf. (I have not yet tried these instructions, but they look like the hot ticket.)

Takes between 3 to 6 hours to install. Hourly rate changes from place to place.

Hi, I have bought this since March and till this day i don't know how to install it!! it's very complicated and no one from the company answers any questions. so if you haven't bought it yet i advise you not to!

Thanks a ton. Very helpful. In your opinion, is this worth a DIY adventure or is there not much to be saved in calling someone to setup?

This unit costs less than $300. A good rule of thumb would be to never pay more for the installation than the cost of the unit. Ask the bidding contractor how many people it takes to install it (one should be the answer) and how many hours it takes to install it (less than 4 should be the answer) and then figure $65-100 to show up on the jobsite and another $45/hr for the employee to perform the task. That still amounts to about the same price in labor as the unit itself, so anything south of $600 would (or should) be competitive. Anything north of that and I'd take the time to hit their facebook page (or Angie's List) with their ridiculous quote. Do other consumers a favor and let people know. This unit costs less than $300.

Yes, that's very incorrect. It's not just expensive, it's exorbitant. I'm having one installed in a few days and they quoted $760, which I thought was very high.

I purchased this last year, but didn't install it as planned....so I don't have any helpful input. Hoping to install in spring

I was VERY satisfied with this system. I no longer live where I installed it however, I plan to install it in our new garage. I believe Home Depot sells the system as well in case you want to add to your system without waiting for it to be shipped.
