"Ken came out originally to do some duct cleaning but noticed that a lot of our supply and returns weren’t sealed properly with mastic (he showed us the areas that needed work). He came back out and sealed all the ducts, installed an air purifier and cleaned and sanitized all the ductwork. He was polite, knowledgeable, professional and hard working. Definitely recommend his services."

"Unit wasn’t cooling so I called the company, who came out within hours. My system wasn’t able to fixed that night so they left me a portable unit, which I’ve never had done before. And they returned the next morning with the needed part. Overall I had a great experience and would recommend."

"I called the office at around 7:00 PM - Craig arrived about 7:40.  He spent about another hour rooting through the issues and testing both of the systems that I have and bringing the one back to life - he found a shorted low voltage wire buried inside my outside heat pump.  I still have no idea how he saw it!  Then replaced a fuse in the air handler that blew because of the short.  He spent the time, worked efficiently, answered my stupid questions with good humor and left around 9:00.  He also found that the previous owner of the house had a warranty with them (lucky call on my part to find the service company that had done previous work!) and was going to try to see if the warranty would transfer to us and stay with the house, so he didn't collect any money until, the office could figure it out.  He didn't have to say anything and I never would have known about the possibility.  Honesty and integrity are huge in my book.  I will absolutely use Payne again!  Thanks Craig!"

"Richie was very professional. He spent as much time as we needed to explain the entire procedure of installing his product, and how it worked. He did the installation himself, with another employee. The work was done quickly and neatly, in less than half a day. And the pool is 4 degrees warmer than it was the day before, and in only 24 hours!

"1.  Called promptly to setup an appointment
2.  Showed up on time for the appointment.
3.  Service person was friendly and professional.
4.  Didn't try to sell me any additional services or charge any additional fees.
Everything went fine.  I'll use them again in two years when the dryer vent needs to be cleaned.

"He did a good job installing the weather striping around the doors.  One door wasn't in the frame correctly and he fixed that.
They sent someone by to check on his work.  That guy talked to us about the air tightness of our home, which is great.  He kept trying to find something wrong.  It is a newer home.  He mentioned we should put energy film on one window.  I looked the film up online and found it at Home Depot.  He told us that they had to do it because "if one speck of dust is on the film" it will compromise the integrity.  One speck of dust? This isn't an ER or clean room.  He was really pushing to try and sell something else.
Because of the salesman that came 'to make sure the door work was correct' is why we won't use this company again.

"We had a lot of damage from Hurricane Ian and Witty Innova did all the repairs except for the roof! Wonderful, talented group and outstanding communicators! I'm praying we never need that much work done again but would most definitely hire them!"

"I was having a problem with my air conditioning system and hired Tony to replace the equipment. During a site visit Tony also pointed out that the ducting was not installed properly, spotting several returns that were not tied back to the air handler. Some of the supply feeds from the air handler were also undersized. Within 2 days, Tony and his guys replaced the old system and upgraded the ducting. Tony himself came in on Sunday on a very hot day to get in my attic to finish the work. I would recommend this contractor to others."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Eagle Lake, FL

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.
