I would highly recommend this company."

THE SERVICE is a small company that doesn’t do everything but only that which is extremely important for you as a homeowner. When I think of what the home has become in the last three decades as a contractor and a personal home dweller, a few critical issues always raise their ugly head from time to time. \n\nWhen we not only eat and sleep, and then work in this castle almost 24/7, we have to first consider the quality of the air we breathe. That’s pivot point number one! \n\nThe second imperative thought is, how clean is that spacious attic that graces the above ceiling over us rate when it comes to toxic or contaminate debris? \n\n\nNext is how costly and how pure is that cool air that’s pumped through those vents of ours to keep our plush lifestyle without sweat or toil?\n\n Lastly, and maybe not so common to us surf rats her in sunny So Cali, how effective is that furnace which produces heat when we’re shivering to the bone? \n\nThere are tons of cold shouldered, huge corporate companies that do, so called Air Conditioning 365/24/7 for a measly buck, while The Service is just a phone call away. I’ve been there, I am there and will be in the future, so let me, as the owner of The Service, take the sting out of not knowing what you’re getting into before you regret. I won’t play the mystery card or deal from the bottom of the deck, what you see is what you’ll get. I’ll provide quality, be efficient and transparent in everything I do.

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Helendale, 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.
