"This was the year my old klunker (furnace) decided to stop working. Great,just wonderful. So I picked up the phone and made a call to 1st Choice Heating. They had a technician dispatched faster than I expected. The news was not good,I needed a new furnace. I was quickly put on the schedule and my furnace was in before I knew it. Thanks 1st Choice team you were awesome from the first call to the install!!! "

"Last year on our way up to our annual 4th of July trip to the Chippewa Flowage, my sister who was house sitting for us called and said the air conditioning was out. I pulled over at the Menard's in Wausau to get a battery for the boat and googled heating and air-conditioning repair in Milwaukee. I called a big name Co. first who wanted me to commit to a $295 house call so I called A-1 and Mike said he could get there by the end of the day to take a look for $95. A couple hours later he called back and said it was the control panel. He could get a new one and replace for about $300 or so or I could get one on Amazon and replace myself for about $100. Long story short, I convinced my sister to turn on all the fans and gut it out until I got back the following weekend. I ordered a new panel on Amazon and was there when I got home. I had a few questions as I was replacing it and Mike could not have been more helpful in guiding me through it. 45 min. later we had cold air and the wife and cats and dogs could not have been happier. Total cost was $107 for the new panel and $95 for the house call and diagnosing the problem on a Saturday evening. Could not have made a better decision than to call A-1. Thanks again Mike. Fast-forward to 2 weeks ago. I woke up on a Saturday morning to my air running all night and would not get below 77 deg. I called Mike and told him the fan outside was running but not cooling the house. He said he had some calls lined up already but would try getting there later in the afternoon. He showed up around 3 or so and diagnosed the problem as a bad capacitor. He didn't have any dual capacitors with him but had a few more calls to take care of and thought he could get a hold of one and promised to still have it fixed the same day. At around 7 that night it was about 83 in the house and Mike showed up with the capacitor and had it fixed within a half hour. Total cost $120 for 2 trips on a Saturday including parts and labor. If you need any big ticket items or small repairs done, you CANNOT go wrong by calling these guys. My house is about 20 yrs. old and pretty sure the air and furnace will need replacing in the near future. As I learned from these 2 experiences you can't go wrong with A-1 and I guarantee I'll be calling them when replacements are needed. Thanks again Mike for your help. Tony"

"It is hard to rate this category of work. I will say the price was excellent, the worker showed up on time, and he was very professional in every manner. But, his English was extremely limited, so we were unable to question him about the job. I couldn't understand if the job went well..couldn't look at the "before" and "after" pictures, so I truly have no idea if the vents were dirty and how well they are cleaned now. I am at the mercy of the company on whether the job was successful or not. I assume that it is. The language barrier was a real hindrance to the project. I did extensive review of the company and found fantastic reviews of their work, so I have to trust they did the same for us. I gave a rating of "A" on the job, based upon this trust, the price, and the professionalism shown by the technician."

"Jim did a great job. He quickly assessed the problem and then took our unit with him to work on it more. When he got back to us, the fix would have cost more than it was worth. He gave us options for a new or refurbished PC. We felt the refurbished was a good deal and chose that. He came back and set that up and we are very happy with it. He then took a look at my laptop and again took it along. He tuned it up and installed a speed upgrade we wanted. Of course, we paid extra for the new unit and upgrades, but we thought the price was very fair. Jim seemed very knowledgeable and responsive. We will definitely call him again if we need any computer services."

"Politely said, Sparky is the boss.  
We needed electricity and HDMI ran from a cabinet in our great room up above our fireplace so we could mount a TV.  Also needed cable and electricity ran to a wall in our master bedroom so we could mount our TV on the wall. 
Sparky showed up on a Friday afternoon, five minutes early.  Assessed the situation, and before he left, said he would look into how much parts/etc would cost, and he would call me with a bid.  Sunday night I received a text from him with a bid, we set up a time for him to come for the install on 8/22 at 9am.  
Sparky showed up at 8:59, and got to work.  I came home from lunch to outlets installed where I had asked, cable ran, everything was great.  He could not find the specific outlet cover for AC / Cable, but it will not be visible once the TV is mounted, so it is not of real concern.  
I was a little uncomfortable mounting the brackets for our TV on the walls, as the studs were located in odd places - and I didn't trust myself to mount a $1,000 60" plasma anywhere that wasn't on a small stand.  ha!  
I asked if he would mind installing the mounts if I kicked him some extra $$, and he gladly obliged to stay longer than he had originally intended.  He even went so far as to use his own screws/mounting bolts that were FAR superior to the ones that were provided in the kit.
Couldn't be happier.  Should we plan on doing any other electrical work / lighting in the future, Sparky will be our first call.

"There is no air conditioning on the first floor of the non-profit house for which I am Property Director.  With the donation of and installation of a window AC unit, it was suggested that a ceiling fan in the living room (where the AC unit was installed) would help circulate the cool air.  I had worked w/Horizon Electric previously for electrical repairs, but not for an installation requiring new wiring, etc.  The owner, Lee, met me at the house within a few days and almost immediately found a way to wire in a new ceiling fan in the living room.  With further discussion we decided a ceiling fan w/lights would also be worthwhile in the dining area.  In that case he had to extend wiring to this adjacent room and, again, came up with a solution.   He quoted me a price for the installation of the living room fan only and another for the installation of both fans.  
With Board of Directors approval I was able to get back to him within the week and the following week both fans were installed. Even though Lee had told me that his workload was out 2-3 weeks, he understood the importance of getting these fans installed 
and that was done in record time.  The House Manager reported to me that the workman finished the installation of the fans we provided in one day, as promised, and, even with the house residents present (including young children), left nothing lying about that could be hazardous to anyone, was efficient and cleaned up the work area thoroughly after he was done.
We were billed the amount quoted.
I would definitely use this company again and highly recommend it.

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Genesee Depot, WI

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.
