"Great! The workers are very professional and punctual. They installed a tankless water heater. They cleaned everything up when they were done and then explained how it worked and how to maintain it throughout the years so it would work better. I highly recommend this company."

"We hired Overall Plumbing Heat & Cooling to replace a kitchen faucet and are very happy with the experience. When replacing the faucet they made us aware of a rusted part of the piping connecting to the dishwasher and recommended we replace it to avoid a flood. Sam & AJ went above and beyond to go purchase the necessary part rather than coming back another day and have us wait. They arrived promptly within the scheduled window, reviewed pricing and made sure the job was up to our standards before leaving. Although I hope we don’t have any plumbing issues soon, Overall will be the first number we call!"

"After two weeks of trying to diagnose the problem with my heating system, it was determined that I needed to replace the system. Although this was not the answer that I was looking for, it was the right answer and decision. From the technicians who determined a replacement was needed, to Phil Grego who coordinated the replacement installation, to Miguel and his coworker who worked quickly to replace the system, it was a flawless coordinated effort to restore a working heating system in my house. All representatives from Arctic Air were respectful and informative. An extra shout out to Phil who was able to get me on the installation schedule quickly."

"
I found WeatherBusters here on Angie?s List and read many positive reviews?that?s why I called them. I want to add another positive review.

My central AC died with the first NJ heat wave in the start of June. WeatherBusters diagnosed the problem, and it was a potentially big one. Not only did my compressor have a refrigerant leak somewhere, but the very old components in the attic were looking quite bad. The service manager took photos.

He gave me two options: one being to locate/repair the leak in the compressor and recharge with refrigerant, and the other to replace both the compressor and air handler in the attic. I opted for the latter; after seeing the photos I didn?t want to start chasing more problems in the future.

I had to wait a while because they were very busy, but it was worth it. Two repairmen came out early in the morning and worked the full day. Professionals, good guys, upbeat and thorough; they put down tarp to keep things clean and answered any question, anytime. WeatherBusters uses top-notch components, too?York and Aprilaire. They also insulated parts in the attic that had not been insulated with the old unit, gave me a much better filter system, a new digital thermostat and a replacement intake grill for the ceiling, too.

The new system is much better than what I?d been used to. Quieter, more efficient, and I can get my temps down low?sweet comfort inside even during the intense July 15-20 heat wave with outside temps in the very high 90s and high humidity. Love it.

10-year parts and 2-year labor warranties. Also, as a WeatherBusters customer I will now get 2 years of free maintenance plus
discounts on future services?like a new furnace or water heater when I need one.

Angie?s List was such a relief for choosing the right company. WeatherBusters is a solid business backed by solid guarantees. Don?t hesitate to call them.

"Had a high velocity a/c issue and getting run around by orignal installer who I will blast for unprofessionaliism if he ever is listed here. Frustrated, called CC based off Angies reviews. Lisa was very pleasant and attentive to my long winded explanation, had me speak to Mo who took time talking to me. I asked if he could take a look at unit , he did and said it was operating but not cooling properly but that a full pressurized check of system was best done when weather warms. He was going to leave without a service charge but I asked him if he could winterize furnance, thought quote could have been lil lower for that but agreed because I appreciated his directness and honesty on dealings. Lisa quickly made appt to fit my schedule and Mo and helper were puntual on call as well as prompt responding to night call to check on pressure gauge that they replaced. Service cost all in."

"Heater was making a knocking sound and of course it was the holiday season. Braido came out right away and found a fan part needed replacement. The parts vendor was closed but they came out the next available day and had everything running smooth."

"The two-man team was prompt, congenial, and strong. They hoicked out my old dead machine (a Friedrich SL-28) and lifted the replacement into place. It was an above-window job, real heavy lifting. The job was simple in execution and took maybe 90 minutes.

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Bloomfield, NJ

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.
