"Finken called to sell RO filters for RO system previously installed. They took payment over the phone and stated the filters were paid in full and drop off of the filters would occur. After drop off, invoices were sent requesting additional payment. When calling to discuss the issue, representatives give excuses as to why the original payment 'didn't go through'. They state there is a training issue, and conveniently the person who processes the invoices is never available. They state they take the credit card information at the time of original phone call and store it in their vault. I've requested they delete my information and stop calling me as I've already paid as they required before delivery. I will look into purchasing these replacements elsewhere as the business practices are questionable and customer service is poor. "

Countryside is an award winning HVAC company in the western suburbs of Minneapolis. We provide great service, quality installations, and knowledgeable solutions for any situation. Our friendly staff, along with our technicians in the field make working with us an easy choice in selecting your heating and cooling contractor.

"The owners of Countryside Heating & Cooling completely lied about the Labor and Warranty for our HVAC System. During the sales process, the owner himself promised 5 years of labor, including 10 years for parts and service. They are not honoring that claim. At first sign of an issue with the system within days of installation, they stated that the system only had a one year labor warranty. We had to go back and forth countless times before the owner finally agreed to that. They also stated after the system was sold and installed that in order to keep their labor warranty, we would have to purchase an expensive monthly service plan to keep the labor side of the warranty. This was never disclosed in any documentation, or by word of mouth prior to or during the sale of the system. One year later, sure enough a part of the system is already broken and they refused to service it without purchasing their expensive monthly service contract, and the owners have not responded to any of the requests we have made for service. They also stated that in order to keep the parts warranty, we would be required to pay this service or Bryant corporate wouldn't honor our parts warranty. I called Bryant Corporate and opened a case with them. Both the initial rep and the rep escalation Manager assured me that was 100% untrue what Countryside stated, and my warranty was valid regardless of Countryside's demands for 'professional HVAC servicing'. I wouldn't recommend this company to anyone, even their own electrician during the install stated multiple times how their owner would consistently embellish the extend of the electrical work required. They don't even put any guidelines in the quotes for you, it's just the products and prices. Do yourselves a favor and go with a reputable HVAC company, not Countryside."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Cokato, MN

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.
