We are a small family owned Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) company located in Sharpsburg, MD. The business was started in 1989 under the name of RW Harrell's Pump Service Inc. when Diane Harrell and Ronnie Harrell purchased a well pump and water system business from a gentleman that was retiring. Ronnie had worked in the HVAC field from the time he had graduated from high school so it was natural to add HVAC to the services that this new company would offer. Ronnie and Diane built the company by word of mouth and continue to grow the company in this manner. Additional DBA - Harrell's Services. Additional fax - 928-492-8004

"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.

"We've got American Home Shield. So that kinda varies but united air temp has done some work for us. Probably a couple years ago, I think so. I think its two years ago. They did work on our air conditioning. Well you know with American Home Shield you only pay $75.00. You sign up for a year , its like something you subscribe to.  You call and contact American Home Shield and they have somebody contact you whose in line with their services and agrees to work with them. You pay $75.00 and if its not done correctly for each visit but if they come back twice you don't pay again. Its like 400 and something a year. Its fabulous, its fabulous. If you need plumbing , H VAC, lighting, its amazing. Its worth every dime. And if they can't fix it they replace it at no charge unless you want to upgrade There are some different companies but even when we refinanced our house they had us, no we bought another house in Winchester for our son. And they made us have it in with our policy and they use American Home shield. its fabulous and you don't have to do the searching or anything, If you aren't happy you just tell American Home shield. One time United Air Temp tried to talk us into , they did some plumbing work too, and they were going try to talk us into replacing it with a cheap model. That isn't American Home Shield policy its with the same thing or you can pay to upgrade. Pay the balance of an upgrade. We use it all the time. When my son has issues with his house I tell him just call American Home Shield. They guarantee they will be out within 72 hrs but its usually within 24 hours. We contacted them last week about my son's air conditioning. They came out right away, they had to order something. They had to come back out and they did last Wednesday and they fixed it."

"Gary Barnes and his two colleagues I met were very professional as far as courtesy , on time callbacks, etc is concerned. We paid for the "Big Deal" directly through Creative Hands, not purchasing through Angie's List as we were told that this would save us time in processing. The price is pretty good, though buyers need to be aware (and perhaps I missed this explanation somewhere, although it does make sense) that the 8-hours of work includes work for one person. If you have two workers, this is divided by 2 so 4 hours a piece. Any trips to the hardware store are taken off from the total of 8 hours. This may be a common practice.  We ended up getting "extra" 2 hours of work, but partially because the 2 outlets were not installed correctly the first time, so the electrician that Creative Hands works with came by later to fix /reinstall for a second time the outlets so that the green light is on AND the GFI outlets work.  It is a good deal and worth doing for small things. They are nice guys, but in our case,  SOME of the work was a bit sloppy. Outlet in my son's room - pre-repair (no holes around outlet) After repair to install electrical outlet in bathroom we now have gaps which require patching and outlet which was not crooked and inset oddly in wall is now oddly inset and not flat.  We have uneven area on wall above where the hole was cut  that will require more than average sanding to smooth and painting (which we expected). For whatever reason, when the GFI outlets were purchased, the covers were not. The   GFI outlet in bathroom has holes/gaps around it too, and we live in an older home(1940) with the wet set/concrete type walls. We had sweeping and vacuuming to do after they were finished, a fair amount of dust and debris was left in the upstairs hall. Blue painters tape left on all of my son's furniture, which is easy to remove, but I would have thought that this was part of clean up.  The original ink marks on the wall to show one of the options for the new outlet were left on the wall, not washed off.  So, we have additional work apart from just minor sanding and painting that my husband and I were thinking we would not have hiring a professional. Ceiling patching actually is just fine.  Downstairs outlet replacement fine and light in the kitchen fine. We had planned on a second trip out- but we are afraid to do this with our fence for fear we may be left with another problem to fix afterwards. I had explained the front door issue well, and thought perhaps the wood needed to be replaced or iron strike plate or lock so that it would close and lock. We were looking for some advice on the right way to fix this, since we were told by Creative Hands that we were in good hands, with all the years experience they have at doing this. Part of the problem I think is that it would be wise to come out first to take a look to see how things need to be fixed before just showing up and having to rush a solution."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Cavetown, 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.
