On the fence about electrical service upgrade
Hey all!
Closed on our first multi family a few weeks ago. We currently have each meter separated out, but has 100A service. The units have electric furnaces, electric water heater, no washer/dryers, and the range is gas.
We had an electrician recommended to us by a contractor who is doing some extensive work inside some of these units. The electrician (licensed, and would be pulling permits) would upgrade all 4 electric panels to 200A service for $3k.
This sounds like a solid price, but not entirely sure we actually need it. Looking for some insight one way or another that might help with this decision. Thanks!
