"Casey came out the same day I got a call from his office (officemanagerwas extremelypoliteand helpful). He climbed up and down off my roof to resolve the issues. He gave me a fair price for the work to be done. He showed me pictures and explained everything. He fixed one cooler so we were comfortable in the house the rest of the day and night. He is replacing the second cooler because is was not repairable (again showed pictures). He quoted reasonable prices for the options we have. We will have a second new cooler on Monday. I already have plans to schedule him to return for some other HVAC and venting maintenance and cleaning."

"Jim is local.  It went great. Jim Ferrell is a professional of the highest caliber. Responded quickly, took care of my problems, and advised me as to better means of protection than I had. He came back a second time to uninstall software that I purchased that did not provide adequate protections and installed free software that would do the job.  He did the work through remote connection, but is available on site if necessary.
For those people needing help on getting red of malware, viruses , etc. on your computer,  Jim is local, better than all thse remote out of state location providers, is a mature, highly trained professional in this area.
If you go to local computer stores you get very young people that can do a basic job, but are no where near the professional level of Jim.
I highly recommend Jim to anyone that needs these type services.

I think the price was fine for the service provided but they inspected the attic and said I needed new insulation for $2500. I had a new AC unit installed the next week and they said the insulation was fine and showed me pictures.

"Sometime in August, my old Master cool died; I called around looking for someone who could do the job and finance it, since I was very short on cash. I called several companies listed here, and the prices ranged from $1200 to $2400 for the small (4500 CFM) unit When I called Bruce, he told me he was on his way to Chaparral,NM, But that he would stop by and check it. After he inspected it, he told me that it needed to be replaced.I asked if he financed and he said no, only refrigeration jobs. I told him that I was strapped for money, and wanted to know how much he'll charge just for the installation. I was going to get an Arctic Cool on credit and wanted him to install it. He told me: "Buddy, I have a used Master Cool, the same size as yours, it's used but in good condition. Can you do $700?, I'll install it and guarantee that you'll have no problems" I agree to the price and then he asked me how I cooled my Master bedroom.(a garage conversion). I told him that I only had that one unit to the whole house.He said "There's no way that your bedroom is cool! If you can do $800, I'll get you a 6500 CFM unit. You'll be getting cold with that one." I got the bigger cooler, but about a month later the motor stopped working; I bought a new one but I was unable to install it. I called Bruce, explained to him what happened and the following day he sent his crew to fix it. It turned out that they needed a new pulley and a new V-belt. When my wife asked how much was owed, they said it's nothing. The first time I met Bruce, and told him how much other people were charging; he told me: "Buddy, there's people making a killing in this business, I like to make a living. We are here to help and look after each other, and that's what I do." This man is a walking blessing to those who have had the opportunity to meet him. I will always recommend him to anyone. May the Divine continue to bless you and all of yours Bruce Chavez."

"Well, the first time the replacement was ordered it was the wrong one, which of course, delayed the installation a week. When it was finally installed I had to pay an additional $850 for code upgrades. This I was not informed of by Home Shield. Then we noticed that there was water on the garage floor and found that the pipe coming in from the wall was leaking at the wall so had to call the plumbing company back out to fix it. They first tried to say it was not their fault but since there wasn't a leak before they installed they did fix it. I have used Home Shield a few times before and never had a problem. Some of the companies they use are not the best so you have to research them before you commit. I have found HS service to be good if you do your homework. At the end of the day I was without hot water for almost 3 weeks but it was do to the plumbing company they sent out."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in La-mesa, NM

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.
