"They had an emergency and had to reschedule. They let us know right away, got us in a couple of days later, and gave us a discount. They did a great job getting our swamp cooler going for the summer (we're getting too old to climb up on the roof and do it ourselves.) They also did a great job getting the swamp cooler going at our daughter's house."

"Mighty Plumbing and Heating LLC out of Brighton do an amazing job. I am a single, older woman and to get an email with a picture of the technicians headed my way, with the map and ETA for them made me very comfortable about having these guys in my home. They were courteous, professional, and efficient. They were thorough in the installation and made sure everything was correct and worked properly. My 40 year old furnace was squeeking and occasionally would make a wonderful bang noise when it kicked on. I was very concerned that it wouldn't make it the whole winter and I did not have the savings to replace it. Having Mighty first gift me a furnace in a local giveaway and then turn out and do such an amazing job for me is probably the best thing that happened all of 2020! They are an exemplary company, they do good work and they give back to the community. This made my day in so many ways. Now I have a beautiful new RUUD furnace and my home is even warmer."

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