"The cost was $5200 for the installation and the device as well. It was excellent service. They did more than just the installation. I didn't know this, but when they give you a new air conditioning unit and heating unit, is essentially, they bring the components out and actually assemble it out in the yard and they out it up in your attic. I found them from a third party and they inspected it with Jones Climate Control. The two of them worked as a team to see what I needed. They took measurements to figure out the size of my unit, they gave me an estimate for what I was going to need for my house, then they went ahead and devised a plan, not only for the new unit for the upstairs, but also devised a plan based on what I told them about inadequate air flow to remap the ducting. The price included all of that. Then, what they did was, after they did it, the third party wrote out the contract by hand and then he ensured that he could actually read it, went over it line by line, to make sure I could read it, and based on that, he told me who the install people were going to be and what the price of the regular maintenance price was going to be. They did run into one tiny little hiccup at the end. They were going to put in a new register on the upper floor because they had actually put in a new duct, I guess, in the hallway section and the register wasn't the right size and the guy said he'd come back later that week to go ahead and put it on there. I, of course, was afraid that he wasn't going to do it because at that point it was a small item, I think they had been paid, so I called the third party because he followed up and called back himself two days later to see how they did. I said, "They had done a decent job, but they didn't have the size of this and I'm not sure if they are really going to come back", and he said, "well, I'm going to have a few words to say about that", and sure enough, and I'm not saying it was because of the third party said, they did come back as they said they would and they finished up on time."

"I recently called Kalahari Electrical for a quote on a project. "Jan" was actually willing to negotiate with me over the phone, and I was pleasantly surprised. The price he gave was where I needed to be, and allowed me to make a decision that I will Never regret. When Jan and "Gilead" showed up to do the work I was blown away by what I was seeing. Jan was up on my second story roof doing the work of at least two guys, and Gilead was coordinating all the support Jan needed on the ground. They were very comfortable guys to be around, and even welcomed my 'input' if I had any questions. The job done was absolutely INCREDIBLE, and I am very sincere when I say that .. I know, because I had attempted to do this same project myself, and only got as far as mounting the roof .. period. Then while they were finishing up, and I was applauding their work (almost literally !) both of them began a Clean Up procedure that exceeded anything I personally would have even considered. I had read about their 'clean up' in a few of the reviews, and I can absolutely testify that it. Jan after doing the install took a leave blower, and cleaned sawdust, shingle particles, and a few leaves leaving my roof spotless .. while Gilead picked up every piece of trash that had fallen to the ground ! These two guys are the authentic - Real Deal, and the reason I sound like I 'Drank the Kool-Aid' is because I can't get the taste of it out of my mouth. These Guys are over the top in total Customer Service, and will be the First guys I call in the future for any other projects I need help with. 'Thank You' Jan and Gilead . . you are now two Friends of mine who absolutely did that job as if you were "working on your own homes !". Terry"

"Fil and his team are outstanding. They are the consummate professionals. We had the old tile removed, wall board replaced, and new backsplash installed. The company removing and replacing the counter top had multiple problems that caused multiple scheduling changes over a 2 week period. Fil was great about working with us to minimize downtime. The job they did was perfect. They show up when they promise, finish when they promise, and charge a fair price. They are true gentleman and look after your home as if it was their own. I will always use Rocca for any future projects."

"Mr. Ferrell first connected his computer to my computer via internet and worked for quite a few hours trying to determine what exactly was wrong. The next day he continued working from his computer for several hours. He determined he would have to have my desktop tower to complete the repair. He and my son met in Huntsville to exchange the tower. He then cleaned up a lot of what was wrong and reloaded Windows 10. He deleted the D: drive which had way too much memory allotted to it. The tower was returned and I plugged it all back together and it is working better than it did when I first purchased it. I would use him again and I recommend him highly to anyone needing computer updating and/or repair. His work is warrantied and he is very personable, knowledgeable, and helpful."

"I called Mr Parham and he responded very promptly. When he arrived he was very professional. He gave me a very reasonable estimate on the cost to have the compressor replaced. The parts were ordered and installed as promised. I have also used him to have the thermostat replaced in my refrigerator. My washer was leaking water, he also fixed that also. All these were separate house calls, and each time Mr Parham was also professional, and on time and did the work as promised."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Gainesville, GA

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.
