"The technician, Aaron Wise, was wonderful. He was prompt and professional. The communication from their office needs improvement. I was not informed of when the part was in or when the AC unit could be repaired. I had to call and check on the status of things. We were without our AC unit for over two weeks during the heat wave (July 18 - August 3, date it was repaired). Our house is a new build and the unit is still under warranty."

"I am extremely impressed with this business; from the beginning estimate to the installation,this business exceeds customer satisfaction! I had requested a quote online. The next day I received an email estimate for my request at the time, to replace the very old air handler as the condenser was just three years old. The next day I got a follow-up email asking if I had received my quote. I emailed back that yes, I received it, and I would get back to them as I was getting a few other estimates for comparison. Weeks later I requested an estimate from E&J for the condensor as well as the air handler. I had called other companies and was I impressed with Eric's estimate as it was competitive and fair, also lower than other well known companies in my area. Eric was very nice about me asking for proof of license and insurance and emailed the documents to me the same day. He was also willing to rewrite the estimate twice as I wanted to be sure it was detailed and nothing was left out. He came over and measured to be sure we were replacing with the correct size unit, and Jennifer called me soon after about financing. She was able to get me set up with the financing company the next day, which is a fairly low interest rate at 6.4% and they have options for 5 yr, 7 yr, 10 yr payment plans with no early payoff penalties. Eric was ble to put me on his schedule for the following Wednesday, just five days after signing with the finance company. Also, the finance company does not pay the contractor until I sign off that the work was completed to my satisfaction. Eric's crew took pictures of everything (as my air handler is in the attic above the garage), took out the old unit, installed the new unit as well as replaced the fuse (was the wrong size for system), replaced the drain pan and drain line, installed two float/cutoff switches, replaced some pipe insulation, new pad for condensor, cleaned everything up and installed my Honeywell programmable thermostat. Eric and his crew were extremely helpful and professional. They truly care about their customers and give excellent service. This has been the best experience that I've had with any contractor in my 10 years of home ownership. Before leaving after installation, Eric made sure he answered all my questions and ensured I understood everything. He even told me in about a week the unit will be inspected by a third party to ensure the system is up to code, and he will send me a copy of the permit. Eric will register the unit for the manufacturer warranty, and he offers a two year labor warranty as well as a two year maintenance warranty. This company went above and beyond, they even picked limbs up out of my back yard, and that had nothing to do with the a.c. install!"

"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."

"Jeff removed an oil tank, replaced my electric water heater with gas water heater and replaced my oil burner with gas furnace. Heating with gas much cleaner than oil. Very pleased with Jeff's work and would use his services again."

"Mike and Crystal were very professional from the first phone contact through the completion of the work. They showed up on time, their work was neat and they worked very efficiently. My windows were in pretty bad shape. They really took their time and prepped them very well which showed in the finished product. When asked to redo or touch up anything it was done without question. In the end we received a very good paint job on a timely basis and at a competitive price. I have already recommended Mike's Painting to others in my neighborhood and would use him again for future painting needs.

"I had a bad roof leak that got worse fast and called Cobalt because they are near my house.  I got immediate response from Sherrie who called one of her crews off another job to install my tarps the same day before we had a bad storm front move in.  A week or so later I had a new roof and flashing around my chimney installed.  I had gone out for estimates to some other roofers but went with Cobalt due to the immediate and friendly personal service  I would not hesitate to use them again or to recommend to my neighbors and friends.

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Cameron, NC

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.
