I contacted this company to get estimates for three different projects. We had met with two other professionals who had recommended that our A/C unit was replaced immediately. Weathershield gave us other options. They sent two guys to make an assessment and it turn out to be one the best experiences during my home remodeling project.

John and his partner completed a through assessment of my A/C unit and made recommendations based on what I was requesting. With his assessment and recommendations we were able to save money and still get work done. He explained to us that although our unit was dated it did not need immediate replacement. He recommended that we clean coils and gave us different options for the new vent. He sent additional information via email on AC units including an estimate for a new unit and  our very much needed ceiling insulation.

We decided to hire this company based on our experience with the John and the information he shared with us. Their prices were very reasonable prices when comparing them to the other two companies. They sent Jose and his partner for the new vent and they did a great job. The work was neatly done and the room cools like a the rest of the house. John came to clean our coils. He removed the entire unit and cleaned everything to perfection. Our A/C unit is working fine.

I highly recommend this company based on my experience with the quality of the work performed and most importantly their honesty. From their customer service staff to their technicians this company deserves an A. 

Once we complete some electrical work in the house, we will hire them for the installation of the ceiling insulation.

"Very happy with the service. Extremely knowledgeable crew, explained what they were doing in detail. It's been a few months and couldn't be happier. They removed our tank water heater and replaced it with a tankless outside. No other vendor told me they could put the water heater outside. A HUGE space saver."

"Full Disclosure - Get Mo Cool Broward offers a free year maintenance contract for posting an objective review. While I believe that this type of incentive can bias someone to a more favorable review, I will remain objective sharing both positives and concerns. Finally, I think it is showing a business savvy to encourage reviews. Kudos. Positives - (1) excellent response and ease of scheduling; (2) while the technician did not arrive nor call during the two hour schedule block, he did call 15 minutes later to say he was running late and I received another call when technician was in route; (3) tech explained how facets of a/c units work; (4) tech was personable and easy to talk to; (5) tech explained a concern with a part without high pressure to replace the part immediately; (6) he quickly address a concern I expressed by putting in a new screw to reduce rattling in the unit; (7) the tune-up price as excellent Concerns - (1) tech wasn't going to wash electronic air cleaner because "it doesn't need to be cleaned" which is shockingly incorrect and I stated that it wasn't true - I was surprised that a tech with such experience would state that; thus if I hadn't pressed it would not have been done; (2) after cleaning electronic air cleaner and moving on to another part of the tune-up, I noted that he only cleaning one of the two electronic filters and advised him of that. He quickly addressed it but still...; (3) I have a bias against a technician not using a checklist to ensure all 21 points are done; for example, I did not see him lubricate bearings which is part of the checklist (maybe I missed that); (4) tech explained why he doesn't put the gauge on the system if the system appears to be working well based on temperature and pressure readings because "it causes freon to escape and the openings are where leaks easily form". I do not know enough as to whether this is true. I do know that every tech I have ever had did tune-ups that included putting gauges on the system. (5) I pointed out that a previous tech had mentioned a problem with the blades and this tech said after a brief look that there is nothing wrong (now I don't know who to believe); (6) I have had other tune-ups done by other companies and this tune-up felt like it was the least thorough. I personally liked the tech. I pointed out 7 positives and 6 concerns (of which they might all not be valid). I am, therefore, objectively giving a B grade. In the end, let's face it, the tune-up was $29 instead of $59 or $79 or even $129 so price has to be part of the evaluation!"

"Everything was fine. The provider showed up on time and accepted my energy rebate from FPL so my out of pocket expense was much lower.  I don't know much about the product that was installed or the quality of installation but it seems fine.

"He was great. Whichever day I wanted he was available to come out so he suited my needs. He took care of this in about two hours. This is my first Big Deal with Angie's List. He did it like it was any other job and didn't treat it like a discount. His demeanor was pleasant. He took the time to clean. He ordered us some new vents to replace to the old ones. I felt safe and comfortable with him. He wasn't inquisitive or prying and was very professional."

"The folks at Allstate Cooling were excellent! They came out right away to look at our AC ducts in our tight attic. Gave us a competitive quote with pictures and diagrams. After we notified them that we wanted them to do the work they were able to schedule us within a reasonable amount of time. My only issue was some minor communication issues on timing to do the work, as we have children and would need to make sure someone was home to receive them. However, they were always responsive to any questions or concerns and they sent two of their best who came out and did an amazing job for a fair price. Would recommend to anyone. Thanks so much Diego, Jorge, Richard and Damien!"

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Key Biscayne, 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.
