Commercial 489 Sauna: 6-9 Person ADA-Compliant Flagship with 23 Heaters
The Commercial 489 is the largest and most advanced sauna in the entire Medical Saunas product line. It seats 6-9 people in a nearly 9-by-9-foot interior with campfire-style stadium seating, runs 23 full spectrum infrared heaters at 7,050W, and is fully ADA-compliant with a wheelchair-accessible ramp and 60-inch internal turning radius. There is nothing above this.
This isn't a residential sauna scaled up. It's a purpose-built commercial installation designed for high-volume wellness facilities, sports performance centers, luxury spas, hotel amenity floors, and any facility that needs ADA compliance. It includes features found on no other model: a heat-resistant Android tablet (patent-pending), an audio theater system with 4 speakers, individual on/off switches for all 23 heaters, and a 36-inch-wide 4-hinged commercial door.
ADA Compliant. The Commercial 489 features a Smooth X-Large Accessible Ramp™, a 36″ wide door, and a 60″ internal turning radius for wheelchair access. If your facility requires ADA compliance for wellness amenities, this is the only infrared sauna on the market designed for it from the ground up.

ADA-Compliant Commercial Sauna: Wheelchair Accessible by Design
Most commercial saunas are not ADA-compliant. The Commercial 489 was designed from the ground up for accessibility. The Smooth X-Large Accessible Ramp allows wheelchair users to enter and exit independently. The 36-inch-wide door (standard saunas use 22-inch doors) provides clearance for wheelchairs. The 60-inch internal turning radius meets ADA requirements for wheelchair maneuverability inside the cabin.
For facilities required to meet ADA standards for wellness amenities (hotels, municipal recreation centers, rehabilitation facilities, VA clinics), the Commercial 489 eliminates the need to retrofit or compromise. Accessibility is built into the structural design, not bolted on afterward.
Campfire Style Stadium Seating: 9 Seated or 2 Laying Down
The 106″ × 106″ interior is arranged with Campfire Style Stadium Seating that faces inward from all four walls. This creates a communal experience where everyone faces each other, like sitting around a campfire. The layout accommodates up to 9 adults seated on two tiers. Remove some benches and two adults can lay down flat for therapy sessions.
For commercial facilities, this flexibility matters. Group wellness sessions, team recovery, couples retreats, and family sauna experiences all work in the same cabin. The campfire arrangement encourages social interaction, which increases session satisfaction and repeat visits.
World's First Heat-Resistant Android Tablet
Phones overheat and get damaged inside saunas. Medical Saunas solved this with the world's first heat-resistant Android tablet, built directly into the Commercial 489. It's patent-pending and designed to operate continuously at sauna temperatures. Clients can stream Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, or music during sessions without damaging their personal devices.
For commercial operators, this keeps clients in the sauna longer. A 10-minute session generates less therapeutic value (and less revenue per visit) than a 30-60 minute session. The tablet gives clients a reason to stay, which means better health outcomes and higher per-session value for your business.
Who Is the Commercial 489 For?
- Gyms and fitness clubs offering group recovery sessions for 6-9 members
- Luxury spas and resorts providing a centerpiece infrared experience
- Hotels adding a premium wellness amenity to their fitness floor
- Rehabilitation facilities needing ADA-compliant infrared therapy
- Sports performance centers running team recovery sessions
- VA clinics and medical facilities requiring wheelchair accessibility
- Community wellness centers serving diverse populations with accessibility needs
- High-end residential buyers building a home wellness suite for family and guests
Don't need 6-9 person capacity or ADA compliance? The Commercial 487 seats 3 with red light therapy on 240V/20A. The Commercial 486 seats 2 on standard 120V.

Installation: What to Expect
The Commercial 489 ships in modular, crated sections. Despite its size (110″ × 110″ exterior), the Easy-Clip Assembly System reduces labor and setup time compared to traditional construction. You need a dedicated 240V/50A circuit, a floor rated for 4,200 lbs combined weight, a room with at least 9.5 × 9.5 feet of clear space plus door clearance, and adequate ventilation. White glove assembly service is available at checkout.
Plan for the electrical circuit to be installed before the sauna arrives. Coordinate with your electrician and building management to verify panel capacity and schedule the work. For commercial facilities, check local permitting requirements for large fixed wellness equipment.
Designed and Built in the USA
Medical Saunas™ are designed, developed, and hand-assembled at the company's Los Angeles factory. The Commercial 489 is the most extensively tested and quality-checked model in the entire lineup. Every unit ships direct from LA in modular crate sections.

Commercial 489 Sauna: Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Commercial 489 ADA compliant?
Yes. The Commercial 489 features a Smooth X-Large Accessible Ramp for wheelchair entry, a 36-inch-wide door (standard saunas use 22-inch doors), and a 60-inch internal turning radius that meets ADA requirements for wheelchair maneuverability. It is the only commercial infrared sauna on the market designed for ADA compliance from the ground up.
How many people fit in the Commercial 489?
6-9 people seated on the Campfire Style Stadium Seating (two tiers, facing inward from all four walls). Alternatively, remove some benches and 2 adults can lay down flat for therapy sessions. The interior is 106 x 106 inches (nearly 9 x 9 feet) with an 80-inch ceiling. Total weight capacity is 4,200 lbs.
How is installation typically handled for the Commercial 489?
The Commercial 489 ships in modular crated sections and uses the Easy-Clip Assembly System to reduce labor. You need a room with at least 9.5 x 9.5 feet of clear space, a 240V/50A circuit installed by a licensed electrician, and a floor rated for 4,200 lbs combined weight. White glove assembly is available at checkout. Plan for the electrical work to be completed before the sauna arrives. Check local permitting requirements for large fixed wellness equipment.
What is the heat-resistant Android tablet?
The world's first patent-pending heat-resistant Android tablet built to operate at sauna temperatures. Clients can stream Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, and music without damaging personal devices. For commercial operators, it keeps clients in the sauna longer (30-60 minutes vs 10 minutes), which improves therapeutic outcomes and per-session revenue.
Is the Commercial 489 suitable for a gym?
Yes. The Commercial 489 is built for the heaviest commercial use: 2x4 fortified framing, 10X reinforced floors, gym-grade reinforced benches with double support, and a 4-hinged 36-inch door that handles thousands of daily open/close cycles. The 6-9 person capacity with stadium seating allows group recovery sessions during peak hours. The ADA ramp and 60-inch turning radius ensure accessibility compliance.
What is Campfire Style Stadium Seating?
Campfire Style Stadium Seating arranges two tiers of benches facing inward from all four walls, creating a communal circle where everyone faces each other. This encourages social interaction during group sessions. Up to 9 adults fit seated, or 2 can lay down flat with some benches removed. The design doubles the seating capacity compared to standard single-row bench layouts.
Can I control individual heaters?
Yes. The Commercial 489 is the only model with individual on/off switches for each of its 23 heaters. Turn off heaters in unused sections to conserve energy, customize heat zones for different session types, or reduce intensity in specific areas. This level of control is not available on any other Commercial model.
How much does a commercial sauna for a gym cost?
The Commercial 489 is the top of the line. Check the current sale price above. The Commercial Series ranges from the 1-person 485 to this 6-9 person 489. For a facility generating $40-$80 per group session with 8-12 sessions daily, monthly revenue can exceed $10,000-$30,000. RecovAthlete offers wholesale pricing and installation consultation. Call 866-861-6317 for a custom quote.
How much space do I need for the Commercial 489?
The exterior is 110 x 110 inches (about 9.2 x 9.2 feet) and 86 inches tall (7.2 feet). Allow extra clearance for the wheelchair ramp, door swing, ventilation, and access to the 240V connection. You need a floor that supports the full 4,200 lb weight capacity (sauna plus up to 9 occupants). A dedicated sauna room, large therapy space, gym recovery wing, or hotel amenity floor works best.
Is the Commercial 489 a steam sauna?
No. The Commercial 489 is infrared with Red Light Therapy. It uses 23 Ultra Full Spectrum infrared heaters. It does not produce steam. For a commercial steam sauna, see the Traditional 7 or Traditional 8 Plus.

Large Gyms and Fitness Chains
6-9 person group sessions. Full ADA-compliant ramp with 60-inch interior radius for wheelchair access. Campfire-style seating creates a social wellness experience that drives member retention.

No. The Commercial 489 is infrared with Red Light Therapy. It uses 23 Ultra Full Spectrum infrared heaters. It does not produce steam. For a commercial steam sauna, see the Traditional 7 or Traditional 8 Plus.
Who Is the Commercial 489 Best For?
Large Gyms and Fitness Chains
6-9 person group sessions. Full ADA-compliant ramp with 60-inch interior radius for wheelchair access. Campfire-style seating creates a social wellness experience that drives member retention.

ADA-Compliant Commercial Sauna: Wheelchair Accessible by Design
Most commercial saunas are not ADA-compliant. The Commercial 489 was designed from the ground up for accessibility. The Smooth X-Large Accessible Ramp allows wheelchair users to enter and exit independently. The 36-inch-wide door (standard saunas use 22-inch doors) provides clearance for wheelchairs. The 60-inch internal turning radius meets ADA requirements for wheelchair maneuverability inside the cabin.
For facilities required to meet ADA standards for wellness amenities (hotels, municipal recreation centers, rehabilitation facilities, VA clinics), the Commercial 489 eliminates the need to retrofit or compromise. Accessibility is built into the structural design, not bolted on afterward.
Campfire Style Stadium Seating: 9 Seated or 2 Laying Down
The 106″ × 106″ interior is arranged with Campfire Style Stadium Seating that faces inward from all four walls. This creates a communal experience where everyone faces each other, like sitting around a campfire. The layout accommodates up to 9 adults seated on two tiers. Remove some benches and two adults can lay down flat for therapy sessions.
For commercial facilities, this flexibility matters. Group wellness sessions, team recovery, couples retreats, and family sauna experiences all work in the same cabin. The campfire arrangement encourages social interaction, which increases session satisfaction and repeat visits.
World's First Heat-Resistant Android Tablet
Phones overheat and get damaged inside saunas. Medical Saunas solved this with the world's first heat-resistant Android tablet, built directly into the Commercial 489. It's patent-pending and designed to operate continuously at sauna temperatures. Clients can stream Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, or music during sessions without damaging their personal devices.
For commercial operators, this keeps clients in the sauna longer. A 10-minute session generates less therapeutic value (and less revenue per visit) than a 30-60 minute session. The tablet gives clients a reason to stay, which means better health outcomes and higher per-session value for your business.
Who Is the Commercial 489 For?
- Gyms and fitness clubs offering group recovery sessions for 6-9 members
- Luxury spas and resorts providing a centerpiece infrared experience
- Hotels adding a premium wellness amenity to their fitness floor
- Rehabilitation facilities needing ADA-compliant infrared therapy
- Sports performance centers running team recovery sessions
- VA clinics and medical facilities requiring wheelchair accessibility
- Community wellness centers serving diverse populations with accessibility needs
- High-end residential buyers building a home wellness suite for family and guests
Don't need 6-9 person capacity or ADA compliance? The Commercial 487 seats 3 with red light therapy on 240V/20A. The Commercial 486 seats 2 on standard 120V.

The Commercial 489 is a major facility investment. RecovAthlete provides custom commercial quotes, site assessment guidance, electrical planning support, and wholesale pricing. We work with gym owners, hotel developers, spa architects, and facility managers to get the installation right.
Call 866-861-6317 or email info@recovathlete.com for a custom commercial quote and installation consultation.
Installation: What to Expect
The Commercial 489 ships in modular, crated sections. Despite its size (110″ × 110″ exterior), the Easy-Clip Assembly System reduces labor and setup time compared to traditional construction. You need a dedicated 240V/50A circuit, a floor rated for 4,200 lbs combined weight, a room with at least 9.5 × 9.5 feet of clear space plus door clearance, and adequate ventilation. White glove assembly service is available at checkout.
Plan for the electrical circuit to be installed before the sauna arrives. Coordinate with your electrician and building management to verify panel capacity and schedule the work. For commercial facilities, check local permitting requirements for large fixed wellness equipment.
Designed and Built in the USA
Medical Saunas™ are designed, developed, and hand-assembled at the company's Los Angeles factory. The Commercial 489 is the most extensively tested and quality-checked model in the entire lineup. Every unit ships direct from LA in modular crate sections.

Commercial 489 Sauna: Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Commercial 489 ADA compliant?
Yes. The Commercial 489 features a Smooth X-Large Accessible Ramp for wheelchair entry, a 36-inch-wide door (standard saunas use 22-inch doors), and a 60-inch internal turning radius that meets ADA requirements for wheelchair maneuverability. It is the only commercial infrared sauna on the market designed for ADA compliance from the ground up.
How many people fit in the Commercial 489?
6-9 people seated on the Campfire Style Stadium Seating (two tiers, facing inward from all four walls). Alternatively, remove some benches and 2 adults can lay down flat for therapy sessions. The interior is 106 x 106 inches (nearly 9 x 9 feet) with an 80-inch ceiling. Total weight capacity is 4,200 lbs.
How is installation typically handled for the Commercial 489?
The Commercial 489 ships in modular crated sections and uses the Easy-Clip Assembly System to reduce labor. You need a room with at least 9.5 x 9.5 feet of clear space, a 240V/50A circuit installed by a licensed electrician, and a floor rated for 4,200 lbs combined weight. White glove assembly is available at checkout. Plan for the electrical work to be completed before the sauna arrives. Check local permitting requirements for large fixed wellness equipment.
What is the heat-resistant Android tablet?
The world's first patent-pending heat-resistant Android tablet built to operate at sauna temperatures. Clients can stream Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, and music without damaging personal devices. For commercial operators, it keeps clients in the sauna longer (30-60 minutes vs 10 minutes), which improves therapeutic outcomes and per-session revenue.
Is the Commercial 489 suitable for a gym?
Yes. The Commercial 489 is built for the heaviest commercial use: 2x4 fortified framing, 10X reinforced floors, gym-grade reinforced benches with double support, and a 4-hinged 36-inch door that handles thousands of daily open/close cycles. The 6-9 person capacity with stadium seating allows group recovery sessions during peak hours. The ADA ramp and 60-inch turning radius ensure accessibility compliance.
What is Campfire Style Stadium Seating?
Campfire Style Stadium Seating arranges two tiers of benches facing inward from all four walls, creating a communal circle where everyone faces each other. This encourages social interaction during group sessions. Up to 9 adults fit seated, or 2 can lay down flat with some benches removed. The design doubles the seating capacity compared to standard single-row bench layouts.
Can I control individual heaters?
Yes. The Commercial 489 is the only model with individual on/off switches for each of its 23 heaters. Turn off heaters in unused sections to conserve energy, customize heat zones for different session types, or reduce intensity in specific areas. This level of control is not available on any other Commercial model.
How much does a commercial sauna for a gym cost?
The Commercial 489 is the top of the line. Check the current sale price above. The Commercial Series ranges from the 1-person 485 to this 6-9 person 489. For a facility generating $40-$80 per group session with 8-12 sessions daily, monthly revenue can exceed $10,000-$30,000. RecovAthlete offers wholesale pricing and installation consultation. Call 866-861-6317 for a custom quote.
How much space do I need for the Commercial 489?
The exterior is 110 x 110 inches (about 9.2 x 9.2 feet) and 86 inches tall (7.2 feet). Allow extra clearance for the wheelchair ramp, door swing, ventilation, and access to the 240V connection. You need a floor that supports the full 4,200 lb weight capacity (sauna plus up to 9 occupants). A dedicated sauna room, large therapy space, gym recovery wing, or hotel amenity floor works best.
Is the Commercial 489 a steam sauna?
No. The Commercial 489 is infrared with Red Light Therapy. It uses 23 Ultra Full Spectrum infrared heaters. It does not produce steam. For a commercial steam sauna, see the Traditional 7 or Traditional 8 Plus.

ADA-Compliant Commercial Sauna: Wheelchair Accessible by Design
Most commercial saunas are not ADA-compliant. The Commercial 489 was designed from the ground up for accessibility. The Smooth X-Large Accessible Ramp allows wheelchair users to enter and exit independently. The 36-inch-wide door (standard saunas use 22-inch doors) provides clearance for wheelchairs. The 60-inch internal turning radius meets ADA requirements for wheelchair maneuverability inside the cabin.
For facilities required to meet ADA standards for wellness amenities (hotels, municipal recreation centers, rehabilitation facilities, VA clinics), the Commercial 489 eliminates the need to retrofit or compromise. Accessibility is built into the structural design, not bolted on afterward.
Campfire Style Stadium Seating: 9 Seated or 2 Laying Down
The 106″ × 106″ interior is arranged with Campfire Style Stadium Seating that faces inward from all four walls. This creates a communal experience where everyone faces each other, like sitting around a campfire. The layout accommodates up to 9 adults seated on two tiers. Remove some benches and two adults can lay down flat for therapy sessions.
For commercial facilities, this flexibility matters. Group wellness sessions, team recovery, couples retreats, and family sauna experiences all work in the same cabin. The campfire arrangement encourages social interaction, which increases session satisfaction and repeat visits.
World's First Heat-Resistant Android Tablet
Phones overheat and get damaged inside saunas. Medical Saunas solved this with the world's first heat-resistant Android tablet, built directly into the Commercial 489. It's patent-pending and designed to operate continuously at sauna temperatures. Clients can stream Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, or music during sessions without damaging their personal devices.
For commercial operators, this keeps clients in the sauna longer. A 10-minute session generates less therapeutic value (and less revenue per visit) than a 30-60 minute session. The tablet gives clients a reason to stay, which means better health outcomes and higher per-session value for your business.
Who Is the Commercial 489 For?
- Gyms and fitness clubs offering group recovery sessions for 6-9 members
- Luxury spas and resorts providing a centerpiece infrared experience
- Hotels adding a premium wellness amenity to their fitness floor
- Rehabilitation facilities needing ADA-compliant infrared therapy
- Sports performance centers running team recovery sessions
- VA clinics and medical facilities requiring wheelchair accessibility
- Community wellness centers serving diverse populations with accessibility needs
- High-end residential buyers building a home wellness suite for family and guests
Don't need 6-9 person capacity or ADA compliance? The Commercial 487 seats 3 with red light therapy on 240V/20A. The Commercial 486 seats 2 on standard 120V.
Planning a large-scale commercial sauna installation?
The Commercial 489 is a major facility investment. RecovAthlete provides custom commercial quotes, site assessment guidance, electrical planning support, and wholesale pricing. We work with gym owners, hotel developers, spa architects, and facility managers to get the installation right.

Installation: What to Expect
The Commercial 489 ships in modular, crated sections. Despite its size (110″ × 110″ exterior), the Easy-Clip Assembly System reduces labor and setup time compared to traditional construction. You need a dedicated 240V/50A circuit, a floor rated for 4,200 lbs combined weight, a room with at least 9.5 × 9.5 feet of clear space plus door clearance, and adequate ventilation. White glove assembly service is available at checkout.
Plan for the electrical circuit to be installed before the sauna arrives. Coordinate with your electrician and building management to verify panel capacity and schedule the work. For commercial facilities, check local permitting requirements for large fixed wellness equipment.
Designed and Built in the USA
Medical Saunas™ are designed, developed, and hand-assembled at the company's Los Angeles factory. The Commercial 489 is the most extensively tested and quality-checked model in the entire lineup. Every unit ships direct from LA in modular crate sections.

Commercial 489 Sauna: Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Commercial 489 ADA compliant?
Yes. The Commercial 489 features a Smooth X-Large Accessible Ramp for wheelchair entry, a 36-inch-wide door (standard saunas use 22-inch doors), and a 60-inch internal turning radius that meets ADA requirements for wheelchair maneuverability. It is the only commercial infrared sauna on the market designed for ADA compliance from the ground up.
How many people fit in the Commercial 489?
6-9 people seated on the Campfire Style Stadium Seating (two tiers, facing inward from all four walls). Alternatively, remove some benches and 2 adults can lay down flat for therapy sessions. The interior is 106 x 106 inches (nearly 9 x 9 feet) with an 80-inch ceiling. Total weight capacity is 4,200 lbs.
How is installation typically handled for the Commercial 489?
The Commercial 489 ships in modular crated sections and uses the Easy-Clip Assembly System to reduce labor. You need a room with at least 9.5 x 9.5 feet of clear space, a 240V/50A circuit installed by a licensed electrician, and a floor rated for 4,200 lbs combined weight. White glove assembly is available at checkout. Plan for the electrical work to be completed before the sauna arrives. Check local permitting requirements for large fixed wellness equipment.
What is the heat-resistant Android tablet?
The world's first patent-pending heat-resistant Android tablet built to operate at sauna temperatures. Clients can stream Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, and music without damaging personal devices. For commercial operators, it keeps clients in the sauna longer (30-60 minutes vs 10 minutes), which improves therapeutic outcomes and per-session revenue.
Is the Commercial 489 suitable for a gym?
Yes. The Commercial 489 is built for the heaviest commercial use: 2x4 fortified framing, 10X reinforced floors, gym-grade reinforced benches with double support, and a 4-hinged 36-inch door that handles thousands of daily open/close cycles. The 6-9 person capacity with stadium seating allows group recovery sessions during peak hours. The ADA ramp and 60-inch turning radius ensure accessibility compliance.
What is Campfire Style Stadium Seating?
Campfire Style Stadium Seating arranges two tiers of benches facing inward from all four walls, creating a communal circle where everyone faces each other. This encourages social interaction during group sessions. Up to 9 adults fit seated, or 2 can lay down flat with some benches removed. The design doubles the seating capacity compared to standard single-row bench layouts.
Can I control individual heaters?
Yes. The Commercial 489 is the only model with individual on/off switches for each of its 23 heaters. Turn off heaters in unused sections to conserve energy, customize heat zones for different session types, or reduce intensity in specific areas. This level of control is not available on any other Commercial model.
How much does a commercial sauna for a gym cost?
The Commercial 489 is the top of the line. Check the current sale price above. The Commercial Series ranges from the 1-person 485 to this 6-9 person 489. For a facility generating $40-$80 per group session with 8-12 sessions daily, monthly revenue can exceed $10,000-$30,000. RecovAthlete offers wholesale pricing and installation consultation. Call 866-861-6317 for a custom quote.
How much space do I need for the Commercial 489?
The exterior is 110 x 110 inches (about 9.2 x 9.2 feet) and 86 inches tall (7.2 feet). Allow extra clearance for the wheelchair ramp, door swing, ventilation, and access to the 240V connection. You need a floor that supports the full 4,200 lb weight capacity (sauna plus up to 9 occupants). A dedicated sauna room, large therapy space, gym recovery wing, or hotel amenity floor works best.
Is the Commercial 489 a steam sauna?
No. The Commercial 489 is infrared with Red Light Therapy. It uses 23 Ultra Full Spectrum infrared heaters. It does not produce steam. For a commercial steam sauna, see the Traditional 7 or Traditional 8 Plus.

WARRANTY AT A GLANCE
- Duration: 3 years from date of receipt
- Coverage: Defects in materials and workmanship under residential use
- Parts: Covered under warranty
- Service / labor costs: Not included in the 3-year warranty
- Misuse or negligence: Not covered
- Who to contact: RecovAthlete — 866-861-6317
What the Warranty Covers
The Medical Breakthrough series of massage chairs are warranted against defects in materials and workmanship under typical residential use for a period of three (3) years from the date of receipt by the original end-user consumer.
This is a parts warranty. Replacement parts for covered defects are provided at no charge during the warranty period. Service and labor costs are not included and would be charged separately if a technician visit is required.
What Is Not Covered
NOT COVERED:
- Damage caused by misuse or negligence
- Damage from commercial or non-residential use
- Normal wear over time
- Damage caused during customer-arranged delivery or setup
- Service and labor costs — these are billed separately regardless of warranty status
Who This Warranty Applies To
This warranty applies to the original end-user consumer purchasing for personal, residential use. It is non-transferable. Chairs used in commercial environments — health clubs, clinics, spas, or any multi-user setting — are not covered under the residential warranty terms. Contact us at 866-861-6317 before purchasing for commercial use to discuss coverage options.
How to Make a Warranty Claim
If your Medical Breakthrough massage chair develops a defect covered under warranty, follow these steps:
- Call RecovAthlete at 866-861-6317 to report the issue
- Our team will gather details and diagnose the problem — many issues are resolvable without a parts replacement
- If a covered part needs replacing, we will coordinate the claim and delivery of the replacement part
- If a technician visit is required, we will advise on the service cost before any work is arranged
IMPORTANT: SERVICE COSTS
The 3-year warranty covers the cost of replacement parts only. If a technician is needed to install parts or diagnose an issue on-site, those service and labor fees are billed separately and are not covered by the warranty. We will always provide a cost estimate before any technician work is scheduled.
