Secured Navien warranty part replacement that another company was unable to arrange — saved customer from full unit replacement cost

Red flag
Pricing: reviewer alleges upselling to uninformed buyers — quoted price 250% above big-box for a marginally upgraded tank; refused to disclose model number upfront
“They definitely look for uneducated buyers who just want a problem fixed. Make sure you request the Model number of tank... They tell you it's a better model than what is available at big box but, only marginally but, they want to charge 250% more... Did not appreciate my time being wasted, felt unethical.”
