"Mr. Bost did an excellent job for me for a reasonable price. I know he obtained the best deal for me on the furnace and the air conditioning unit. He answered all my questions. He was on the job when he said he would be; he was professional and courteous. The installation went smoothly, and I have had no problem with the furnace or air conditioner since they were installed in 2008."

"I was impressed by how hard working and thorough the workers were. They hauled the old gas water heater out and got the new one installed promptly and did a neat job. They reconfigured an awkward gas pipe near my washing machine, replaced an exterior gas hose with a UV resistant one, and checked all gas piping including our gas fireplace. We were very pleased with the end result and appreciated the fair pricing. Highly recommend."

"This was not an emergency repair, we were fortunate to be able to schedule the replacement about a week in advance. Heil sent an estimator to look at the space and make a recommendation. We originally wanted a Hybrid system but they advised against it given the space and need to collect/vent moisture. We selected a 75 gallon electric water heater. On the scheduled day, They were on time, removed the old water hearter and installed the new one - professional and courteous the whole time. Unfortunately, the new heater leaked the same day. They returned and made a temporary patch until they could return the next day with a replacement part. They returned, replaced the part and after they left we found that the tank leaked again in another place. They returned the next day and before we could insist that we wanted a different tank (clearly an out of the box failure on this one) they said they would replace the tank which they did. Our first, second and third experiences with Heil were all great with customer service and technical expertise. The inconvenience of multiple extra days without hot water and having to be there for four visits was unexpected and unfortunate however Heil responded correctly and made it right. You can get the measure of a company not only when things go right but also how they respond when things go wrong. We would use them again."

Kurt Randell was awesome! This was a major decision and I had multiple estimates to comb through. I was so unsure of what work should be performed and there's always the matter of cost. Kurt answered my million and one questions. I never waited long for a response. He was very patient with me and walked me through the process. When discussing what work will be conducted for what price, he told me he would love the contract but he could only go so low because he would not cut corners to give a lower price. That spoke volumes. Many contractors bid low and cut corners to make their profit. Very impressive.

AHS was able to start the work before other contractors were available. Kurt explained his schedule and had a contingency plan in case it snowed. The day the work began, I went to work without worrying about what work was being performed at the house (the house was empty). Kurt called me at the end of the day and went over the details of the work completed and the plan for the next two days. He did this each day. We pre-planned a time to meet at the completion of the final work. Kurt walked me through the whole house and answered my many questions. I was so relieved to have the work complete. When a new problem surfaced during and after the remediation, Kurt took care of it very reasonably and quickly. There was no hassle. He never tried to charge absorbent fees because I had already settled on him. I appreciate his help and support and for not taking advantage of the situation. I had a third party inspector inspect the work and I received a mold clearance letter.

AHS gave me a package deal easing the stress of me having to call multiple contractors to complete the work. His roofer installed better shingles than another roofer and for the same price. I really appreciated AHS taking care of all the needs so I did not have to coordinate times and entry with the various parties. This also allowed the work to be done quickly opposed to waiting days or weeks for each contractor to complete their portion based on schedules.

I can't be more please with the service I received from AHS. The paperwork was smooth, no problem with payment processing and no problems during the remediation and post remediation actions. I will definitely refer AHS.

"Was able to inspect the hot water heater and order the parts to install the very next day. Hot water heater now works better then ever. Just wasn't sure about writing the check to the repair man and not the actual company.

"Glenoak came out to reinstall a toilet that had been leaking .  While there, they noticed a leak from the pressure tank, which needed to be replaced.  They went out for the part w/o charging us for that time or travel.  Unfortunately, the replacement part didn?t work, and ultimately they had to replace the entire toilet.  They fixed a small gas pipe leak near our furnace while there, too.

Very professional, punctual, and competent.

"Within an hour of purchasing the advertised special, Henry from B A R called us to set up an appointment for service. He seemed knowledgeable and showed up promptly to our appointed time. After working on the unit for about an hour he determined that the unit had died and there was no hope reviving it - it was 14 years old after all. WIthin a few days Henry was back and installed our new unit. Around the time he installed our unit, our second unit died. We had him replace it as well. The work was done in a timely manner and we have been completely satisfied. We would definitely hire B A R Appliances again for our HVAC needs."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Brooklyn, MD

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.
