You'll have to look aroundbutmyguydoes it for $300 as long as the elecelectrician has done everything so he can just tie into the quick disconnect.

He was using 4 large bath towels to try and soak up the water.The flood was so bad it had soaked a mat in the garage below – right through the floor/ceiling.He could not get the water disconnect to fully shut off.
