"I had an excellent experience with this company when it came time to replace my old water boiler with a new one. Ariel arrived on time with his team, and from the moment they arrived, they were professional, organized, and ready to get the job done. They took the time to complete the installation properly and made sure everything was handled with care and attention to detail. Ariel was especially impressive throughout the entire process. He was very knowledgeable, professional, and courteous. He clearly understood the work that needed to be done and made sure the installation was completed correctly. What I appreciated most was that he did not rush through the job. Before leaving, Ariel took the time to thoroughly test the new boiler and check the system to make sure everything was operating as it should. Knowing that everything was tested and working properly before the team left gave me great peace of mind. Another thing that really stood out was how clean and organized everything"

I found WeatherBusters here on Angie?s List and read many positive reviews?that?s why I called them. I want to add another positive review.

My central AC died with the first NJ heat wave in the start of June. WeatherBusters diagnosed the problem, and it was a potentially big one. Not only did my compressor have a refrigerant leak somewhere, but the very old components in the attic were looking quite bad. The service manager took photos.

He gave me two options: one being to locate/repair the leak in the compressor and recharge with refrigerant, and the other to replace both the compressor and air handler in the attic. I opted for the latter; after seeing the photos I didn?t want to start chasing more problems in the future.

I had to wait a while because they were very busy, but it was worth it. Two repairmen came out early in the morning and worked the full day. Professionals, good guys, upbeat and thorough; they put down tarp to keep things clean and answered any question, anytime. WeatherBusters uses top-notch components, too?York and Aprilaire. They also insulated parts in the attic that had not been insulated with the old unit, gave me a much better filter system, a new digital thermostat and a replacement intake grill for the ceiling, too.

The new system is much better than what I?d been used to. Quieter, more efficient, and I can get my temps down low?sweet comfort inside even during the intense July 15-20 heat wave with outside temps in the very high 90s and high humidity. Love it.

10-year parts and 2-year labor warranties. Also, as a WeatherBusters customer I will now get 2 years of free maintenance plus
discounts on future services?like a new furnace or water heater when I need one.

Angie?s List was such a relief for choosing the right company. WeatherBusters is a solid business backed by solid guarantees. Don?t hesitate to call them.

"The second attempt was on time and installation was smooth and quick. My bedroom was saved from the hottest and muggiest days of the summer.
I am writing this to amend the previous review which was late and then encountered problems with my building.
Coary made it right.
Thank you.

"Timing was of the essence as it was the Martin Luther King holiday coming up and the coldest day of the year so far. Arik came in on Thursday to evaluate the situation and quickly started making phone calls and getting measurements for the replacement unit. The unit was delivered on Saturday and customized ducks were created to fit the new unit. Arik arrive promptly on Sunday morning and in 4 hours he had the unit working. The thermostat was replaced and the units on-off switch needed some electrical work. Arik is very professional and quick to respond to text or phone call. The unit needed some adjustments which were done a week later. All is working fine. I highly recommend Arik as he is efficient and gets the job done."

"This was excellent service. My refrigerator was no longer cooling and items in the freezer were slowly melting. I contacted Junior at 9AM and set an appt for 1:30PM and he was on time! By 3:30PM he had replaced the compressor and everything was perfect with 6mths warranty. He is very communicative and professional and repairs many other types of major appliances (stoves, washer/drier, A/C etc). Highly recommended."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Highbridge, NY

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.
