"We were selling the house and wanted to be sure that the system was operating correctly. We bought on Angie's list a service check for our system. For $129 they would service our system twice during the year and give us/new buyer priority service and a discount on any service required and parts. When they came the service man found that we had a leak and said it would cost $629 plus materials to fix. We were surprised and asked if we got a discount because we bought the service. The service person said it did not apply to the coupon we purchased. He repaired the system and did give us a 10% discount when we asked if their was a senior discount. We paid a little over $800 after the discount for the service and freon. 
I looked up the coupon we purchased and found that it said we should get a 20% discount on labor and parts. The coupon also said they would replace filters, which they did not.
I called the company and was told that the coupon was wrong, but they would give a discount and a check would be sent the next day. I was only able to talk to the secretary and not the owner. When we did not receive a check in a week I called back and was told they had misplaced it and it would go out, but we would only get 20% on the labor not on the freon ($267) as that was material, not a part. It seemed crazy that it was not a part, but they were firm on that. It took another week for the check to arrive.
Overall it was not what I would call a pleasant experience and would make me leery of buying coupons on Angie's list.

"A 4-ton SEER 13 single-speed compressor and corresponding single-speed air mover was replaced with a SEER 21 with a two stage compressor and variable speed air mover. Everything could not have gone any smoother. The various specialists came on time with little gap between one completing and the next one starting. The basic installation, consisting of system leak test, removing the old system and installing the new system was completed in 5 hours. A subsequent duct cleaning, new pressure test and QC audit was equally efficiently done. All workers were polite, professional and cleaned up any dropped installation. All packing and the old system was removed. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend them."

"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.

"I have a rental house and the tenants had just moved out with numerous stains in the carpet and a completely foul urine smell from the dog that peed throughout the house.  The grout in my tile floors was also black.  Carpet Police was highly recommended from a neighbor who had just gone through the same situation.  I called them and they had a very quick response in returning my initial call and came out the very next day.  The two guys that came out were prompt and even gave me a courtesy call a few min before they arrived to let me know they were on their way.  They were very nice, professional and knowledgable.  They initially were going to clean the grout that day, but after talking with the guys decided to wait untiI after the painter in case he splashed any paint on the tile so they could clean that up as well.  I was their last stop and it was at the end of the day, I asked them if they could clean the grout in my house next door and they didn't hesitate. My grout looks beautiful and like new.  I also had them seal it while they were here.  I decided to replace the carpet instead of trying to clean it because it was so foul smelling from the previous tenants dog.  I had picked out my carpet sample from a local store and was set on that exact carpet because I had already matched the paint that was going in to the carpet swatch.  They went out the next day on a carpet hunt and were able to find the same carpet at a slightly cheaper price.  They set it up and all I had to do was call the vendor and pay for the carpet.  I had them haul out the old carpet, they had to replace some soiled tack strips, they treated the floorboards, and sealed the concrete underneath to prevent any urine smell from coming back up and then installed the new carpet.  They did a wonderful job.  The carpet looks great and most importantly...the urine smell is completely gone.  The black grout is now clean and looks new.  I was on a pretty tight timeline with painters, cleaning, repairs and replacing carpet so I could get the new tenants to move in quickly and they were able to accommodate me without any hesitation.  I even have a few days to spare. ;)   Everyone I dealt with was so nice and professional, they made it one less thing to worry about.  I will be using their services in the future and highly recommend them.

"New installation went well. I was a little upset that only 50% was covered being that the unit was 19 years old. I'm sure that parts for something that old would be hard to find. Replacement was recommended."

"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 Douglas, AZ

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.
