"The entire team was completely professional and so easy to work with! They were able to install 4 new zones as well as 2 ductless zones in a very short period of time. The communication was excellent and the follow up was amazing. I plan to use a AR air in the future."

"Kevin was great! The rest of the company not so much. Kevin diagnosed the problem immediately as the thermostat, had a replacement in the truck, and completed the installation of the new unit quickly. He showed me how to program the updated version, and everything seemed to be fine - until the next morning. Turned out the replacement was defective. When I called, I was told that they might not be able to get back to me that day, but Kevin interrupted his schedule to come back and put in a new (and working) unit at no charge."

"The boiler pressure relief valve was leaking, so it was determined that replacing the boiler expansion tank and pressure relief valve caused the temperature controller to malfunction, and the temperature controller was replaced as well. The water heater expansion tank was also replaced due to a leaking connection.. The total repairs expense is $775. The apoointmebt time was 9:00 am, they came in around 10:30."

"Preferred Choice Cleaning is outstanding. This is the second time I utilized Preferred and Brendan and Brandon did a phenomenal job: porch, pavers/slate, extensive PVC fencing around the property, shed, deck, patio furniture etc. Looks brand new! Professional, courteous, and the cost was very reasonable. On top of all this, a little while after the job was done, Angelo the owner called to ask how everything went. I highly recommend Preferred Choice…a company that knows quality and service."

",ther plumber
Upon my initial call to APV Mechanical I received a call back within 10 minutes from Tony the owner. I explained that I didn't have any hot water at all. Tony understood the situation immediately and said he could come by the same day within a few hours. This blew me away bc I had called someone with whom I had done business with in the recent past who quoted me a price that was astronomical and wasn't sure when he could get to it. I also called a plumber that I didn't know who said they wouldn't be able to come out to even look at the job for 2 days and that a quotation and "service call" would be $99.00 and that "maybe", if I had the work done, I would receive a credit for the $99.00 fee off of the final bill. I said thanks but no thanks, I'll take my chances with someone else. Then I called APV, never heard of them and never did business with them before, just got them off of Angies list. WOW, what a find!!. Tony and his assistant came when they said, couldn't be nicer or more personable. They were in and out within two hours and price was fair and exactly what he quoted over the phone. They worked neatly and professionally. When everything was finished they stayed and tested the system. There was a minor snag but they stayed until it was right and worked properly.
Tony knows his business, is proud of it and was very appreciative of the work. I would not hesitate one second to recommend  them for this type of work. If you live in this area, use them because you will get a fair price and top quality work.
I have used Angies List a few times now over the past several years and have generally had great results. Unfortunately the other vendors also had good ratings on Angies list but  turned out to be just awful. I will definitely call APV the next time I need heating or cooling work.
APV is the real deal and you won't be disappointed.

"Extremely professional, and friendly at the same time. Took the time to explain everything that was happening very clearly and patiently. They were also happy to defer replacing the heating coil until the weather got cooler, and didn't hesitate to defer a significant cost of the job until that work was completed. I would definitely call them back for any future hvac needs."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in East Setauket, NY

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.
