"The young man from Greenwell Dustin texted me earlier than I expected which was great and arrived when he said he would. He diagnosed the issue told me what part was needed and told me where I could get it to save some money. Got the part and he installed it and verified everything was working correctly with no leaks of water or natural gas. Dustin will be who I request if I need any other services from Greenwell Plumbing."

"Computer had been acting up for a while but I kept putting off getting it fixed.  After reading all the great reviews, I decided to give N.A.T.S. a call.  So glad I did.   Jim was able to resolve all my problems remotely - no drop off or pick up necessary - so convenient!  I feel like I have a brand new computer, it runs so well and FAST too.  I couldn't be happier and wouldn't hesitate to use his services again.  My only regret is that I didn't call him sooner.

"Levi came out and cleaned my dryer vent. He explained how the process worked, and what to expect. Quick, clean job. He made sure he cleaned up after himself as well! Will definitely use AACS again."

"I bought the home the I now am happily moved into thanks to Landon and his service team. I called and called contractors and seemed all I ever got was the run around or that they would do one thing and not the other being picky like myself and reluctant to enter contracts I wanted to stay with one contractor through all the projects that I needed done. This involved Roofing , Siding, Windows , Doors , Electrical and Plumbing so it takes a Handyman usually to complete all of these under the same contract I called Southern Kentucky Home Pros and had the privilege of speaking to what turns out the most professional and courteous and might I mention the most prompt contractor I believe I have met. He scheduled the time to come give an estimate and was very prompt on time and courteous. I was surprised after all I have went through to get this stuff done. I accepted the terms of the contract we discussed and they begin work the following day. The work went awesome and of course I ask a lot of questions and Landon didn't seem to mind explain everything in detail of what they were doing. I am very pleased of their performance and will certainly call them back later this year to do some more projects I have in mind. This contractor is definitely Above The Rest in my opinion. Fair Prices Good Quality Work & Performance and meets the deadline."

"AHS is ok. They cover repairs of most everything under the roof of your house. The companies that contract with them are not always the best. You call AHS with the issue, they send a fax to the repair company and give you the contact info. If they don't contact you within 24 hours, you call them. Sometimes they answer, sometimes they don't. When they arrive (usually three days or so later), they service the item. if it has issues within the 90 days, you call AHS again, they are sent out with no charge. If the serviceman decides the unit is unrepairable, AHS will allow you to choose a replacement from their listing (usually not as good as what you have) they will install and remove your old item, or give you wholesale amount to buy and install your own. Prices vary on what you want covered and what you want the copay to be, plus where you live. For me it is 49.99 per month with a 75.00 time of service order. You can have more than one item serviced at the same time under the same fee. If you have a SEAR product the repair guys are great. Not that wild about the other ones they send out. But it is a big savings compared to calling someone on your own. The cost of service is only the 75.00 copay."

"I didn't know anyone in this area that did this work.  I was on my way home from town when I saw work being done on a home down the road from us. I stop and ask what all work they did and what they would charge for and estimate and he said how does free sound. That sounded great to me. He came that afternoon . Their work is fast and very good our home looks great. We couldn't have ask for it to look any better or the people who did it to be any nicer."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Brandenburg, KY

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.
