I would not install any control panel without a clean install. Most require it, but it depends on what is already on there. If you are doing this on a server where tere are already clients, you will have downtime. RedHat 7 is already EOL. Why not use this opportunity to use a better datacenter, update your OS and hardware.
$300 - $600 to clean and reinstall seems just crazy to me.

Sure does.rldev said:
If our client needs a complete reinstall it can cost anywhere from nothing on up, depending on whether we have to restore sites, etc., and how quickly the client needs it done, and whose fault it is.
Typically a scheduled reinstall, even to a new (supported) OS, is at no charge.

Sorry I wasn't thinking about security patching and installing the software. $300 -600 seems right then. Still it's the best way to go since the OS can be upgraded.
The user is going to have downtime no matter what, why not prevent future downtime when the OS has to be updated. Or the user could get a new server and migrate users over. When I think of CIHost, I can not get past some of their past debacles.
