Horizon Services is the region’s largest and most well respected plumbing, heating and air conditioning company, with nearly 600 employees serving tens of thousands of homeowners throughout Delaware, Southeastern Pennsylvania, Southern New Jersey, and Northeastern Maryland. After a quarter of a century in business, Horizon Services remains fully committed to setting the industry standard for customer service, installation, and focusing on things that are important to busy homeowners: respect for their time, their home and their property; up-front pricing, and an unconditional 100% money back guarantee.
"Kenny from Horizon was very professional and a great guy. I appreciated his insight. He was just doing his job. He was very pleasant. However, I was disappointed in a tune up amounting to just a check of voltage on my motor and capacitors. I thought there would be cleaning involved and an adding of a pound of freon to my unit as advertised. That didn't happen. I received an estimate of over $700 for the replacement of 3 capacitors. I could replace all 3 for under $50. To charge $650 labor is raping the customer. Then the blower motor (that is NOT multispeed) was estimated at about $1100 replacement. The motor costs $210. So again...I feel raped. For a charge of almost$900 for labor. Unbelievable! I've lost my trust in companies that are so money hungry that they lose sight of reasonable business. I will now change out my own parts as I have no confidence of reasonable pricing. Maybe people can afford to be overcharged about $1100. I can't and I won't if I can help it. Next time I'll use my own voltage meter and check my motor voltage and resistance on my capisiters myself. They should be paying me for their so called "tune-ups" as they are only a ploy to pressure you to buy a new furnace/AC system. Ohh and they won't install a new furnace to an old AC unit and Visa versa. That's what the guy told me. Are you kidding me? He told me it would cost$11,000-17,000 for a new system. My father in law just replaced both for $9,000.... So again a minimum of $2,000 overcharge. Nope, Horizon, your scam won't work with me. I'll be glad to tell everyone I meet and show them your ridiculous estimates!"

"A Raving Review for Green Mechanical LLC! If you’re looking for the absolute best HVAC service around, look no further than Green Mechanical LLC! This company is truly a gem, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the incredible service they provided. My heater had been misdiagnosed by another company, leaving my family and me in the cold—literally! Thankfully, I called Green Mechanical LLC, and they completely turned things around. From the moment I called, I knew I was in good hands. Devin Green, the owner himself, came to my house to personally assess the issue. This level of dedication and care is something you just don’t see every day! Devin’s professionalism, deep expertise, and genuine commitment to solving the problem made all the difference. He didn’t just slap on a temporary fix or rush through the job—he made sure to thoroughly diagnose the issue and explain every step of the process to me. A huge shoutout to Jacob and G, who also worked on my system. They were punctual, knowledgeable, and incredibly respectful of my home. Their teamwork and attention to detail were top-notch, and it was clear they take immense pride in their work. Thanks to Devin, Jacob, and G, my heater is now working perfectly, and my family can finally enjoy a warm, comfortable home again! I also want to emphasize how important it is to support small businesses like Green Mechanical LLC. These are the companies that truly care about their customers and their communities. Devin and his team are local experts who go above and beyond to deliver top-notch service, and they deserve every bit of your trust and business. If you need HVAC services—whether it’s a repair, installation, or just regular maintenance—do yourself a favor and call Green Mechanical LLC. Their commitment to excellence, fair pricing, and outstanding customer service make them a company you’ll want to recommend to everyone you know. Thank you, Devin, Jacob, and G, for your amazing work and dedication. You’ve earned a lifelong customer! 🌟"

Swamp cooler installations and replacements FAQs
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.
