"Cal helped out tremendously. Came in was able to diagnose the issues, and able to teach me a few things as well. It’s an old firehouse that didn’t have a thermostat amongst other part that were missing which kept it from being habitable in the winter. He came in with his team and was able to fix the 3 boiler system and get a thermostat. Now it’s no longer under 50 inside the building. Definitely recommend."

We are a locally owned and operated HVAC company based in Fort Wayne, Indiana, serving all of Allen County with ambitions to expand. We noticed a growing trend of large corporate HVAC firms taking over the space that once was filled by smaller, locally owned companies. Witnessing this, we felt compelled to start our own HVAC company to reinstate the essence of local, personalized, and affordable service. We believe that HVAC service should not just be a transaction, it should be a relationship. Instead of upcharging and taking advantage of customers, our goal is to provide a cost-effective and personal experience. We care about our community and strive to keep your home comfortable at a fair price. Leveraging our extensive experience in trades and HVAC, we guarantee the same level of quality as the large corporations. But unlike them, we are proud to employ local technicians and staff. Living and working in Fort Wayne, we take pride in supporting our local economy. Our manager, brings a wealth of industry experience to our team, having held numerous roles ranging from warehouse manager to operations manager, even general manager at several of the larger corporate firms. Our dedicated team of installers and service technicians are thrilled to be part of our mission. They're eager to build the company they've always wished existed. Our administrative staff, too, is all locally sourced, not outsourced overseas. While we are a small team now, we are committed to growth. We are actively hiring and working with local trade schools to foster career development for our youth and demonstrate that Fort Wayne is a vibrant place to launch a successful career. We hope you will choose our local, employee-owned, reliable, and trustworthy team for your next HVAC service or system installation. Thank you for considering us, and we look forward to serving you.

"Devon came out to check our AC unit after it stopped working, and he quickly found the issue — just a simple switch in the electrical panel. He took the time to test the whole unit, made sure everything was running smoothly, and even scheduled our annual maintenance for next week to clean out the unit. He was thorough, respectful, and stayed to make sure everything was working correctly before he left. I really appreciated the great service!"

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Dayton, OH

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.
