"Here's a more refined, less repetitive version that maintains the same level of frustration and negativity: WARNING: Read Before Hiring Xtreme Air Services If you're considering Xtreme Air Services, take a moment to read this--there's a treat at the end. Surprise, surprise... yet another negative review. Let's start with Eddy O., the so-called "General Manager." Our Experience Eddy made it clear that Xtreme Air Services "wouldn't be able to help us" if we posted negative reviews about their incompetence, despite the fact that they improperly installed our unit, left us with a potential fire hazard, and disabled one of our heat coils (without our consent). Screenshot attached. After leaving us with a heater that doesn't function properly in winter, their solution? Pay thousands more if we want them to "help." Comical. So, in order to get the service we already paid for, we have to stay quiet? Oops. A Few Key Points: 1. Threatening not to help the customer with an issue you created? That's just ignorant. Zero integrity. 2. Why would we pay more to an unprofessional company that sends unqualified, non-bonded, non-insured workers to botch an installation? Rude, unaccountable, and incompetent from top to bottom. 3. This experience makes spending our money elsewhere EASY. The CEO is an imbecile. We paid over $12K for a unit that now operates on half power because the breaker they installed can't handle it. A professional company would've caught this--Xtreme Air Services didn't. Even their own seventh technician admitted, within seconds, that it was installed incorrectly. Still not convinced? Let's Talk Fire Hazards Both the Xtreme Air Services technician AND a third-party electrician confirmed our system was a fire hazard. Eddy (who is not a licensed electrician) claimed it wasn't because "that's why the breaker trips." That's not how fire hazards work, Eddy. This system was installed in the summer. Clearly, not one of the seven techs they sent even tested the heating function beyond a few moments. Fast forward to winter--our heater trips the breaker after 5-10 minutes, sometimes running inconsistently (aka, a fire hazard). Xtreme Air's Response? * No accountability. * No apology. * Just more incompetence from "General Manager" Eddy, a pompous clown who lacks both professionalism and basic customer service skills. Instead of addressing their negligence, he condescended, interrupted, and dismissed legitimate concerns. He even had the audacity to tell me we "don't have that many cold days in Texas." What does that have to do with selling and installing a properly functioning heating system? The real kicker? Their own sales team KNEW this system wouldn't work. They either failed to test it or outright lied. Either way, we now have a fire hazard and an unusable heater unless we fork over an additional $2,500-$3,000. Xtreme Air Services is an unprofessional, dishonest company that cuts corners and are a JOKE professionally."

Our Handyman service which includes just about everything is only $65 for the first hour and $75 per hour for all additional hours. plus materials. Don't forget to check out our specials deals .

"Willard Seals is an expert on exterior painting. He and his crew pay attention to detail and deliver with excellence. My job was to exterior paint my siding and trim repairing as needed. The paint selection represented a significant color change and while other contractors were quoting one coat, Willard convinced me two were needed and he was right. The difference in quality comparing the previous paint job (I contracted it 10 years ago) to Personal Touch Contractors was significant. Extremely satisfied with the quality of work, the responsiveness to my needs, and the price. I almost didn't award the job to Personal Touch because I thought there quote was too low. It turns out they delivered great value at a very reasonable price. I will use them again."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Alvarado, TX

Swamp coolers are quite energy-efficient, using only 15% to 35% of the electricity that traditional central air conditioning units consume. This can lead to significant savings on your energy bills. However, keep in mind that swamp coolers require water to operate and may not cool your home as effectively in extremely hot or humid conditions. When considering overall efficiency, it is essential to weigh both electricity and water usage, as well as the cooling needs specific to your local climate.

Evaporative coolers only work in dry climates because they cool by moistening the air. If the air is already moist, this will have little to no cooling effect. Central AC is a better choice if you live in a humid climate, such as the Midwest, eastern, or western coastal regions.

To install a swamp cooler on a roof, a local HVAC specialist will first find and cut a spot free of wiring and obstructions. They’ll then install metal bracing, legs, brackets, the ceiling duct register, ductwork, power, and thermostat wires. Once installed, they’ll seal all openings, attach duct connections, and install a thermostat. Before leaving, they’ll run cool water piping to the unit and inspect all the connections.

The cost to repair your swamp cooler ranges from $50 to $600, depending on the issue, whether new parts are needed, and the chosen repair service. Depending on the type of pad your system uses, you will need to change out the pads every one to three years for proper operation. When budgeting for the cost to repair a window unit, expect to pay around $230.

The U.S. Department of Energy states that swamp coolers can cool a single room by five to 15 degrees Fahrenheit. However, this largely depends on the size and installation method of the evaporative cooler. You can only achieve these results in a dry climate, such as the American South, as it’s easier to cool rooms in humid environments with central air.

Swamp cooler water usage varies depending on the size of the unit. Smaller evaporative units may use one gallon per hour, while much larger units could use up to 15 gallons of water per hour. Most homeowners can expect their unit to use between seven and 10 gallons of water per hour of usage.
