"Our central AC had stopped working. Madd AC came to our home on a Sunday morning on short notice. We were concerned that we might have to replace the entire AC/Heat system as it is pretty old. It would have been easy for them to sell us a new unit. Instead, MADD AC replaced a simple safety switch which was causing the problem. We are very happy with the response, service and integrity and will recommend them to all our friends!"

"Cannot recommend these guys enough.  Our AC started cooling poorly (couldn't get it below 80 degrees) due to leak in evaporator coil a couple months after moving in to our house.  We had a home warranty so tried to work through it with their contractors, which went awful.  

After deciding to pick our own company, we saw how great the reviews were for The AC Guy and gave them a call.   They came out, and agreed that the coil needed to be replaced and gave us a quote for just replacing the coil, or for replacing the whole system.  There prices were upfront and very reasonable, no bait and switch with a bunch of up charges later. Our home was built with an undersized system and was approaching 11 years old, so we decided to get a full replacement and upgrade to full 5 ton unit (we had a 3.5 ton condenser).  

I called Rachel back the next day (Saturday) and told her of our decision.  They were busy on emergency calls, so to get a new system installed they couldn't come out early the next week.  But she did have a technician stop by and give our current R22 system a charge (at no cost!), and that thankfully helped the house cool down over the weekend until they could replace the system.  The tech was on time, profession, and polite.

On the day they came to replace our system, once again they were on time, profession and courteous.  They cleaned up after themselves and left the house in good condition.  AC works great, much better than it did even when it wasn't broken.  Can now keep the house on 70 degrees and it doesn't even have to be running the whole time vs previously it ran constantly and couldn't come close to getting the house that temperature.  

Rachel also helped us with getting itemized receipts showing what the work would have be for just the evaporator coil replacement, since of course the home warranty companies never want to pay fair prices.  

Overall, I highly recommend this company. Honest people doing honest work.

"It was a three day job. 

They had to come back because the evaporator coil in the attic was defective from the factory. They didn't catch and I didn't neither when they first installed but it showed after a month. They came back out took out the old one and put in a new one and its worked ever since.

If you have to have heating and air work I certainly look at them. We've used them for inspections for quite a number of years but this was a major replacement and they did that well."

"On the day of the work (4) workers came on time and proceeded with the work. They were very professional and covered the floor and the stairs leading to the attic.  They too answered all my questions about  what they did. They showed  me the old evaporators coils and the leaks in them, and the new were still in the original box. They replaced on of my thermostats and  fixed a noise coming from my outside unit .  Although,  I had a second estimate on this work that would have been less, I went with Cucco,s because I trust their work and their professionalism. Honestly, it is so hard to fine honest people these days working with them is a pleasure.

"Mr. Ferrell first connected his computer to my computer via internet and worked for quite a few hours trying to determine what exactly was wrong. The next day he continued working from his computer for several hours. He determined he would have to have my desktop tower to complete the repair. He and my son met in Huntsville to exchange the tower. He then cleaned up a lot of what was wrong and reloaded Windows 10. He deleted the D: drive which had way too much memory allotted to it. The tower was returned and I plugged it all back together and it is working better than it did when I first purchased it. I would use him again and I recommend him highly to anyone needing computer updating and/or repair. His work is warrantied and he is very personable, knowledgeable, and helpful."

"Everything went great. Chris took his time to get it 100% right and safe. We also had a couple of light boxes installed in our kitchen. This was our second time using OnTime electric and if/when the need for an electrician is needed we will only call them again. Great job."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Huffman, TX

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.
