"I usually donâ t write reviews but I was impressed with Lousâ work and help getting my AC situation taken care of. My central AC system went out and I needed it replaced as soon as possible. Even though he was booked, he was able to squeeze me in promptly, and was able to install a new unit for me in less than 48 hours. I highly recommend him for quick work and fair price. Thanks again!!"

"Kieth came out multiple times to address the issues I had. Eventually I had him replace my old Furnace, water heater and AC, in addition he cleaned several drains as well. He explained in detail how the project would be competed as well as a time line. He not only finished sooner than expected but did a phenomenal job, he left the work area cleaner than what I had it. I would highly recommend Plumbing Tree for any home services, Even with current circumstances of money being tight I did get multiple other bids and Plumbing Tree was more than fair!"

"you want an honest and fair electric, heating and plumbing company, hire Tuscan and ask for Jim Cox. My attic fan stopped working causing my ac to work overtime. I hired a different electrician who came out, went into the attic and then put in a new switch, which didn’t solve the problem, charged about $350 and said I should have them put in a whole house fan for between $4,500 and $11,000, depending on the options I chose. That fan wouldn’t cool my attic and would draw hot air from outside into the living space. I then called Tuscan. Jim Cox came out, went into the attic, noticed the fan was humming but wouldn’t turn unless he pushed it with his pen. He made a video of the fan for me to watch. He then gave me a very reasonable quote to replace the fan, ordered it and told me I needed new insulation. The insulation company convinced me to seal the attic with insulating foam under the roof and on the gable ends, which would completely keep it from heating up. I called Jim and asked him to return the fan, which he did without complaint. I then received Tuscan’s invoice for $0. I now know where to go for electrical, heating and plumbing work."

"Very professional. They did an annual service check on my furnace. While doing so, they found that my filter was wrong and could have caused major damage to the furnace. They were able to find me the correct filter in a timely manner. I'll be calling them whenever something is wrong or I need another furnace cleaning/check."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Highlands Ranch, CO

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.
