"Originally I called for a diagnostic of my AC unit, which was doing a terrible job cooling my house. Nikita did the diagnostic-turns out the coolant was leaking, a coil needed to be replaced, and not to mention the thing was from the 1990's. We decided to replace and upgrade it, as well as our furnace, since we froze last winter (turns out it was badly rusted on the inside and emitting CO into the house, which NO ONE found last winter (had it looked at by 4 different people and everyone said there was nothing wrong except that the BTU's were too small for the size of the house). Roy was so awesome, because even though they couldn't schedule us for the next 3 weeks, he made sure we stayed cool-he filled up the coolant and came over to the house a couple times when the AC stopped working. I will be keeping him as our heating and cooling guy!"

"It went extremely well. The technician was professional and thorough. He spend at least 30 minutes with me reviewing the current configuration to ensure that the replacement water heater would meet our needs. We switched from a tank water heater to a tankless water heater and couldn't be happier. The tech did a great job with the installation and left the area clean and organized."

"Steve was very easy to contact to make the appointment. He called to tell me he was on his way and showed up when he said he would. He did a thorough check of our air conditioning system and let us know we needed new dampers and a control board. I was so impressed by Steve's customer service that I signed up for Steve's annual service agreement. Rest assured, I will not be calling another contractor for HVAC needs. Steve has earned a lifetime customer."

"My outdoor Viking Ice Maker stopped working after having been winterized. I was able to get an appointment within a couple of days. The service tech was prompt, professional, and very courteous. He was able to get the ice maker running without replacing any parts. He even offered some cost saving options if it were to happen again. I would definitely recommend Superior Appliance Service without hesitation."

"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.

"Kevin worked so quickly! It blew us away how fast Kevin & his team removed our old (1940's) toilet and installed the new one in our basement. He was pleasant to deal with and was able to squeeze us in on our desired day. Thank you!"

"The Zackery Group was awesome. They went over the process of installation in terms that my dad and I could understand. Before agreeing that a new unit was needed The Zackery Group tried to fix the part that caused the unit not to work. My dad and I really appreciated that they took the time to try to fix the problem before assuming that a new unit was needed. We will definitely recommend them to friends and family."

"This spring the rain was no friend to outside construction, however, America's Best Patio Rooms were able to start the project the end of June. The original size of our screened in porch was 12' x 10' which was too small so we wanted it extended by six feet to 12' x 16'. Initially we thought we'd do a three season room but after getting four estimates and deciding that we really didn't want to spend that amount at this time we kept it as a screened in porch. Because of the crumbling concrete, we had to have about five feet of the original pad removed and about eleven feet of new concrete poured. I wasn't totally pleased with the concrete work since, while the new concrete is level, the original pad had a slight decline away from the house, meaning that there is a slight valley where the two meet. This was very evident when it rained buckets while the roof was still 10' and the pad was uncovered; a lot of water collected at the valley. However, now that the roof is extended and the supports and screening in place, this, hopefully, will no longer be an issue (so far it hasn't and there have been heavy rains). While the project went slower than I would have liked (rain didn't help) in the end, the finished product is flawless. America's Best Patios uses white vinyl casing to cover the support beams and white aluminum to hold the screening which provides a very clean, flawless appearance to the porch, especially when compared to the rough cedar that was part of the previous porch. When the crew completed the porch, the appearance is clean and crisp, the screens are tight (something I really appreciate), and its a pleasure to once again use our porch. A couple things worth noting: 1) Austin, the boss, takes pride in what he does and always answered my questions in detail; 2) they hooked up an outside light even though the contract stated it was the responsibility of the homeowner; 3) painters creased two of the screens the day after the porch was completed but the crew came back and fixed them with no charge to me; and 4) the crew that did our screened in porch paid attention to the details and kept me informed as to the schedule and progress. I also need to mention that I was not enamored with the concrete work that was done; when it was completed the finish was like walking on broken shards of glass meaning that shoes had to be worn and we are definitely bare-foot people in the summer on the porch. Since I didn't want to deal with the concrete person (he had missed three appointments with me previously) I just used a belt sander with ultra coarse sandpaper and took care of it myself. So, the screened in porch is fantastic and since I sanded the concrete smooth we can walk on it without shoes. If using America's Best, you might want to discuss the concrete and the finish before signing a contract. And while I wasn't satisfied with the concrete work, the rest was top notch, so I gave them an "A" rating (wish they had a separate rating for the concrete work!) or a chance to rate them "A-"."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Greensboro, IN

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.
