I would highly recommend this company."

"BEWARE OF THIS COMPANY!!! We called Cousins for a routine maintenance visit of our 2 year old A/C. The first tech provided what we thought was routine maintenance. The next day the unit stopped working. We called back and they sent a second tech who said we needed a new thermostat. They replaced the thermostat which did no good. A third tech was sent out and discovered the unit had no freon due to a hole in the evaporator coil. They charged us $1153 in addition to the almost $300 for a maintenance agreement. We had not had any trouble with the unit until we made the mistake of calling this company. The first technician obviously caused the damage to the coil during his visit. DO NOT CALL THIS COMPANY AS IT WILL COST YOU A FORTUNE AND THEY WILL NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR UNTRAINED TECHNICIANS."

"We hired Dale at Pro Precision Electrical to replace our circuit breaker panel with another 200 amp panel since our old one was not on the approved list of our homeowner's insurance. Dale responded quickly with a very reasonable quote. He showed up on time with two workers. He had to enlarge the opening a little for the new panel and as a result had to patch the drywall, but he still stuck to the original quote. We had a small issue afterwards with our microwave tripping a circuit breaker, but Dale came back out quickly and fixed the problem. Overall, we were very pleased with his work and price and would definitely hire him again. He is now my go-to contractor for any electrical work I need done."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Hollywood, FL

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.
