"I had purchased a new HVAC for installation in my home. There were challenges to getting the cooling unit to function as well as running new wire. The job took several visits to trouble shoot and complete. The service staff, Ian Bryan, and Will were cordial and professional throughout the process. And the manager, Eric, was assertive in contacting me and trying to schedule a final service appointment to get the issues resolved so the system would function properly. This company is definitely motivated and intentional to keep customers happy and satisfied. They are tidy and clean up afterwards. I would use this company again based on K&K's bottom line of doing the right thing when there are complications."

"The whole process of replacing my water heater went extremely smoothly. From Chase coming to my house for the evaluation to getting financing. Chase did a great job and was very clean and considerate. Dawn and Nicky at the office were also great. The turn around time for getting approval for financing was extremely fast. Great work everyone. Roger"

"The technician arrived promptly, near the beginning of the time window (he actually would have been earlier except for a flat tire).  He reviewed the site and explained the process.  He then went about his work very professionally.  Mr. Sejas took time to show me the condition of our duct work, given that in 26 years in the house we had never had then cleaned.  We had always made sure that the system filters were either cleaned or replaced on a scheduled basis and had, for a number of years in the 90s, used cheesecloth inside the vents to reduce dust, but our system was in pretty bad shape.
The work consist of blowing air through the ducts at 250 psi and capturing/removing the dust particles at the furnace. It is noisy a each vent must be visited, but there is no reason to stay in the same room or even same area of the house as the technician. The dryer vent cleaning I did not observe, but he worked at both ends, at the dryer and the outside vent.
He advised that we run our system fan during the day, changing to auto setting at night, or at least any time there was a lot of activity in the house that would stir up dust.  This allows the air filtration system to do it job and clean the air - something that had never occurred to me. He also recommended repeating the service every 3-4 years  if after checking the intake duct, it appeared as dust was building up again.
The impetus for having the service done was my HVAC company's technician who, while performing routine maintenance, called me down to the basement and showed my the large pile of dust that had formed at the base of the duct system.  He said forget about the dust, it is the excrement of the dust mites that live in it that can cause respiratory discomfort.  He also warned me to make sure about the  company I hired to do the work, hence my checking Angie's List and getting a discounted price. Since Lowe's came in and cleaned the ducts the inside air is noticeably fresher.. ONE piece of advice. If you are going to have your ducts cleaned do it before you change your air filter, not after. Even with the removal of dust by their equipment, the filter was full of dust - and was brand new because of the recent HVAC service. So I paid twice for a filter when I could have paid once.

"I called at least 5 places who said they offered emergency service and they either said they couldn’t do it or didn’t answer the phone. We called Weatherking and the dispatcher was pleasant and said we’d hear from the tech shortly. The tech, Matthew, called within 15 minutes and was extremely professional and transparent about the “after hours” fee. He was at our house within an hour in inclement weather. Again, very professional and pleasant, although it was around 11pm on a Friday. He fixed the problem and went over and above our expectations by being quick, thorough, and explaining everything he did. He also did some additional cleaning and told us how to prevent the issue from reoccurring. Will definitely use them again. Thank you Matthew and Weatherking."

"Sooo....first, Jim is a very nice guy.  However, Jim now works in Nashville during the week and is only home to the Huntsville area on the weekends.
My first impression of him was that he was awesome.  My computer system had crashed because I pulled the plug during a thunder storm before the computer fully shut down which resulted in the computer hanging up.  Jim took my call while in Tennessee and suggested how to fix the system.  For this I am very grateful.

What happened next was I had him come and check my computer to make sure everything was working properly.  He came to my house and spent an hour tweaking it (basically running various checks on the system), for which I paid him $50.  He suggested that my laptop would work much better if I had Windows 7 and increased my RAM up to 4 GB.  He said he could install it for me for (including the RAM) for about $160.  We met the following weekend for the handoff and he loaded Window 7.  When I received the call it was ready, the bill was $227.50.  I was surprised that is was $70 more than quoted, but paid it anyways.  When I asked about the RAM, he mentioned he did not upgrade the RAM and this would be another $60.  I was a little discouraged at that point since I felt like I was being taken advantage of, but the guy is relatively nice, so I said to go ahead and order the RAM.  He did so and the following weekend was supposed to install it.  Due to some personal things in his life, he wasn't able to install it, so I picked it up since I had to go out of town and could use the IT guy at my new location to install it for me.  When we went to install the RAM, the system wouldn't let us do it since my particular type of laptop can only take 2GB of RAM max.  If Jim had gone to the crucial.com website (where he bought my RAM) and entered my computer system on it, it would have told him the max amount of RAM that could be installed on that unit.  He did not do that.  He is supposed to refund my $60 this next weekend.

I think if Jim wasn't burning the candle at both ends by having a job in Tennessee during the week and trying to run this business on the weekends, it would've been a better experience.  Perhaps taking a few extra minutes to SLOW DOWN and write out an estimate of everything he would need for the job including the prices would ensure people know up front how much the repair would/should cost so they can budget accordingly.  I think if he had taken that approach, it might've been a better experience.  So now I am stuck with a laptop that runs slower because Windows 7 uses more memory and a laptop that can't be upgraded to more RAM.  Basically, the last step which cost me almost $300 was not necessary.  If you need something simple done like coming back from a system crash, he would be okay to use.  Otherwise, for the bigger jobs, I recommend he provide a written estimate with the items he plans to do.

UPDATE:  After posting this review, I received a number of text messages from Jim commenting on the bad review.  I understand he is upset, but harassing someone about a review is not a good way to go.  My review was honest and not meant to be mean, but to let those that use Angie's list get what they pay for...an honest review of someone's experience."

"We had Jason install 10 dimmable recessed lights and replace two lights in our bathroom. Jason was prompt, professional, and polite and based on that he was the only quote we sought out. Jason did the job exactly as explained... actually better, and did a good job cleaning up as well. Would definitely recommend and hire for future projects."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Berea, OH

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.
