Don’t want a sales person to come to your house? Well, we don’t have any. Don’t want to feel like you’re being “closed on?” Well, I don’t know how to do that anyway. We will give you a thorough and honest analysis of your HVAC issue. No subscriptions, email campaigns, or junk mail. Just call when you need us, like the good old days. "They did an excellent job, but kept asking when dinner would be ready," -The Owner's Mom "We call them for help!" -Tech Support "They'll make your HVAC great again!" -Donald Trump

"We had a few different HVAC companies come out to give us bids and Miss Minisplit was consistent price wise with the other bids but she had much better availability. The others were months out and she was available the following week which was perfect because we were quickly coming up on the hot summer months. We are so glad we went with her. She was fast and efficient and very pleasant to be around. Even when I bugged her with questions during install, because I was just so curious, she answered them and explained what she was doing. Afterwards she gave us a quick lesson on how to work them and how to clean them. Since install we have had a few more questions and she has answered them quickly. We have since suggested her to our friends that are looking to add minisplits to their home and they love her too."

"Carini installed my mini splits a few years ago and promised me the world with their warranties. Well, turns out they botched something during the install and all of the refrigerant leaked out. They want $2,200 to refill and re-pressurize the line. Since they cross-threaded the screw that led to the leak during installation, this should be covered under the "Lifetime Craftsmanship" guarantee. Instead, they're trying to charging me a full day of labor to fix their mistake. Support on this issue has been dismal. It's been 16 days since they first diagnosed the problem and I still don't have a timeline for when this will get fixed. I chose Carini because of their warranties and their service record, but its all smoke and mirrors. You've been warned."

"After getting 8 bids, we made the right choice selecting Hollywood Refinishing. Tarwat and his crews were professional, talented, and timely. The cost was reasonable - not the cheapest, but we could see the quality difference. They were still lower than several others, so it was the perfect balance in our opinion - quality for a reasonable price. Our kitchen is gorgeous, and included lots of design input and ideas from the crews."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Guatay, CA

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.
