"Purl's Sheet Metal's installers were very profressional and kept our home clean during the replacement process.   We purchased a  wi-fi thermostat and the installers helped us get everything hooked up and we can even access it remotely by our cell phones.    Overall we are totally pleased with our units and the whole process.

"Mr. Ferrell first connected his computer to my computer via internet and worked for quite a few hours trying to determine what exactly was wrong. The next day he continued working from his computer for several hours. He determined he would have to have my desktop tower to complete the repair. He and my son met in Huntsville to exchange the tower. He then cleaned up a lot of what was wrong and reloaded Windows 10. He deleted the D: drive which had way too much memory allotted to it. The tower was returned and I plugged it all back together and it is working better than it did when I first purchased it. I would use him again and I recommend him highly to anyone needing computer updating and/or repair. His work is warrantied and he is very personable, knowledgeable, and helpful."

"The duct work in our house has been an issue for several years. The airflow in the house was not uniform...in summer, some rooms were very cool and others still warm. We had several companies look at the problem, but their fix, wasn't. It had been three or four years since we had our a/c unit checked. We decided to try someone new. Call it providence or whatever, but we chose Controlled Climates. We scheduled a service appointment. The company kept us informed on appointment reminders and arrival times via text messages. The technician (Dallas) arrived on time. After checking the equipment (13 years old) over, he made a few recommendations to improve operation and potentially extend the life of the unit. The price was reasonable and I really didn't want to go into the summer season with a potential problem so we proceeded with the repairs. Everything regarding the work was explained thoroughly. Upon completion, I mentioned to the technician that our air flow in the house was not good. He proposed that we meet with another member of their team that specializes in a/c heating design. We did. Brandon checked our system and performed a number of measurements of the physical plant and while operating under load. He presented the results of the testing to us in a thorough and understandable manner. He gave us several options to fix or mitigate the problem. We opted for the fix and that included completely redoing the existing duct system and the addition of one more return. Adequate air flow through the system was the issue. The original ducting was undersized at the returns and ducting was snaked all over the attic and that didn't help either. Bottom line is, Controlled Climates fix...worked! Now that we are slipping into summer, our home is staying nice and cool in all of the rooms. Many thanks to Ray and his team (Dallas, Eduardo, and Brandon) for their extremely professional service. They take a lot of pride in their work and work with you at every step. At the end of the work day, you would never know they had been there. Highly recommend this company for your a/c heating needs."

"I hired this company back in April 2022, I’m a realtor and needed someone to take care of a few things in one of the homes I was selling, they came in and in a matter of hours fully painted the interior of the home, fixed a large whole in the wall, performed mold treatment and installed new faucets and ceiling fans. The next day they sent their housekeeper to do a full deep clean of the home as I had requested that additional service they offer. In a matter of 2 days, this home was ready to move-in!!! I was more than happy with their work. Would definitely recommend to any realtor or homeowner looking for renovations and also a CLEAN HOME!!"

"Well, the first time the replacement was ordered it was the wrong one, which of course, delayed the installation a week. When it was finally installed I had to pay an additional $850 for code upgrades. This I was not informed of by Home Shield. Then we noticed that there was water on the garage floor and found that the pipe coming in from the wall was leaking at the wall so had to call the plumbing company back out to fix it. They first tried to say it was not their fault but since there wasn't a leak before they installed they did fix it. I have used Home Shield a few times before and never had a problem. Some of the companies they use are not the best so you have to research them before you commit. I have found HS service to be good if you do your homework. At the end of the day I was without hot water for almost 3 weeks but it was do to the plumbing company they sent out."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Burrel, CA

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.
