"Chris, my tech, was very knowledgeable, respectful and professional. Unfortunately it took a little longer for him to procure the part......but he (Aire Serv) diligently, relentlessly tracked down the needed motor, and then Chris installed it as expeditiously as possible."

"Friendly and polite technician Trumayne Bolden and his assistant Ron showed up to our house at 10:15am on Tuesday with all the materials and equipment and started to work on the sink replacement job. They completed the job at 1:31pm!! During those working hours, I found out that both of them did the task very professionally and knowledgeable. My husband and I are very satisfied and appreciated their work efforts. Trumayne was very honest for the price that he offered, because at the beginning we told him that we wanted a good faucet instead of the standard one, so he chose the better one but stated that the price would be higher. From his good experience just by looking at our kitchen area, Trumayne knew exactly what kind of sink and faucet recommended to us. The price of Kohler iron cast sink and Moen faucet were reasonable and because of their good qualities, I expect that they will last for a long time. We like our new kitchen sink and faucet, our kitchen looks great and we thank you!!"

"5 stars for Lee’s AC and plumbing! I took a chance in hiring them because of the brilliant presentation of their team sales person RICKY! He not only bent over backwards to convince me that his company was the best choice in providing and installing my new AC unit but continued in overwatch to make sure that the job went exactly as what was promised and that I was completely satisfied which I am. I also want to commend both Caesar and Zach S for their technical efforts in making sure that the project went without a hitch. Along with the AC portion of the project, I was impressed by the plumbing side of their company who fulfilled the membership portion of plumbing tasks which were promised within the free 1 year membership which was included in the cost of the AC project. Due to the diligence of Ricky and the rest of the team, I will surely remain a paid member for years to come after the free one year has lapsed. Thank you Ricky and please thank the rest of the team that made all of this possible! 🙏 Jeff Prince"

"Chris' reputation for being trustworthy and honest makes him my #1 guy for air conditioning repairs. Over the years, his philosophy of doing everything he can to repair the unit (as opposed to other companies that are money hungry and assert that replacement is the only option) is the reason I seek out his opinion first whenever I have an air conditioning problem. He had to cancel on me on the originally scheduled afternoon appointment due to a longer than expected job he was doing. But I respect his reputation so much that I am willing to overlook this situation and simply wait the next morning when he was able to make it to my house. His expertise is extremely valuable to me even if I have to wait a little longer for him to stop by. What is important to me is that he gives a knowledgeable and honest diagnosis. In this case, my a/c unit was making a lot of unpleasant screeching and grinding noises. It almost sounded like metal rubbing on metal. So I turned off the a/c until Chris arrived. He was confidant that a replacement of the fan motor would fix the problem and prevent future problems. He was correct. I have not had any noises since getting the new fan motor and everything is fine. One thing that concerns me though is that with this particular Century brand fan motor, Chris' final installation resulted in the need to have two separate wires that protruded out the top grill and then back into the motor (see photo). They are safely away from the spinning fan, but I have never seen this before. It is a little concerning due to future exposure of the wires to extreme summer heat and the possibility that birds or rodents might be attracted to chew on them. I do have a one year warranty for the work. I just hope these exposed wires will stand up to the outdoor elements."

"I had issues with my heating/AC unit making banging noises when the heat kicked in. The unit was  over 30 years old and I feared it needed to be replaced. I contacted Ability (John) and we set up an appointment for a technician to come out. Sadly my fears were correct and the tech advised me that the banging noises were actually due to small explosions in my heater...kind of scary..
He gave me an estimate and I told him I didn't have the money at the time and would have to think about what to do. The tech advised me that since it was almost spring, the rates for heating units might go down in the near future, and stated he would call me if any specials came up.
True to their word, they did call me several times and we did end up coming to an agreement.
The techs came to my house at the agreed upon time, and were very polite, and proficient.
I am very happy with the service I received, and would definitely use this company again.
In addition, they have followed up by sending me letters with offers of specials on the services they provide.
I would highly recommend this company to anyone who needs HVAC service.

"The installation of my unit went smooth as could be expected. I had my doubts, but Fast Response Services is true to their name and came out on time, put in my AC unit time efficiently and were very kind and informative when explaining and answering my questions. The new air conditioner works great."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Las Vegas, NV

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.
