"1) Outside faucet was replaced and works great. 2) Tech found and removed a bit of plastic that we couldn't find. Noise gone. 3) Problem determined to be a bad solenoid. He didn't have the part but he did put me in touch with Delta to order it. I'll have to put it in myself or pay another service call. 4) Tried to repair with new flapper balls (which I had already tried). Dye revealed slow leak continued, so he replaced one entire flush assembly which stopped the leak. He only had one kit on his truck though, so the other one I will have to replace. That's annoying. The professionalism downgrade is due to 1) the wet-vac he used to suck water out of the toilet tank sprayed fine drops of wet, greasy water across my bathroom. I was right there and cleaned it up in a few minutes with paper towels (and threw the dirtied rug in the washer). I told him it was no big deal, but it was annoying that he didn't apologize. He just said "it has a filter" like it hadn't just happened right in front of me. 2) He later dribbled a little blue-dyed water across the clean upstairs bathroom floor as he was going back out to his truck. My wife found it and was angrily asking me what happened (upstairs) when he came back in. He yelled "because I'm an idiot" and went upstairs. I thought that was his way of apologizing but no -- he was angry because he wrongly thought my wife called him that. She didn't, and she told him so. He said "I thought that's what I heard". My wife was so upset at being falsely accused she left the house. When he was all done and ready to leave I confronted him on this, telling him I was there and my wife did not call him an idiot and that she is not one to say such things. He finally apologized, but my wife wasn't there to hear it. Finally, he spent 15 minutes or more working up the bill. I thought I would get details on what each repair cost, but the receipt only had totals. I thought it was a little expensive, but I don't have much experience with plumbing costs. I was happy to get 10% off because we are also an HVAC customer."

"Of course this happened on a Saturday, called Charle, and he was at my house first thing Sunday, May 13, 2018 which was Mothers Day, btw!!! My compressor is old, so he put a starter kit on it to help it work longer...if,course I understand it's an older unit, even tho Charlies replaced quite a few parts over the last several years. He also emptied out a pipe on the garage that had accumulated dome backup. All was working fine. Went to check on it around 4pm same day, and the pipe was really leaking, when the unit was running. Hated to have to call Charlie again, he was at another customers house, and came back over when he was done. He worked ALL DAY on Sunday May 13, 2018!!! He found the pipe needed the shop vacation to duck out all the gunk, then as all was cleaned out, he sealed with some pipe glue. So very Grateful for Charlie, his ethics, honesty, knowledge...my air working great so far!! I most Highly recommend Charlie, and wouldn't even THINK of calling anyone else!!!! Charlie truly is true professional, and most defiantly puts himself in the customers shoes!!!! Thank YOU Charlie, Once Again!!!"

"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."

"Excellent. Jill at Handyman Matters emailed me promptly with a quote for the services I requested. I thought it was fair rate, so accepted the quote and she arranged a contractor for the following day. Evan, the contractor, arrived promptly and completed the work efficiently and professionally, leaving the area clean after the installation. I had a small leak later in the day at the seal of the garbage disposal. Evan came back by and re-caulked and seated the disposal. Everything has worked perfectly since. I can't speak highly enough of the excellent work and professional experience I had with Handyman Matters. I'll definitely use them again with confidence in the future!"

"It was August and my A/C wasn’t cooling the house. I called a few other companies and either never heard back or was told that I needed a new unit. I heard from a friend that Bryant Plumbing Heating and Air was good, so I figured I’d try them. I gave them a call and they were able to make it out the same day. They were polite, professional, and experienced. They diagnosed the issue and gave me a quote, it turned out to be something fixable after all. They were able to order the parts and install them, it was fairly inexpensive compared to the cost of a new unit that I was previously told I needed. Two years later, the A/C is still going strong. I will definitely be using them in the future for all repairs/tune-ups, and plumbing. I highly recommend Bryant to anyone."

"I can't say enough good things about my experience with DC Family Home Improvements and Deeb! From the moment I reached out, he was unbelievably responsive and was able to come out the very next day, which was a lifesaver for us. We made some rookie mistakes with our TV mounting, and Deeb swooped in like a superhero, fixing it with such expertise and care that it instantly put our minds at ease. Now, our TV looks absolutely perfect—it’s level, secure, and stylish. I genuinely couldn’t be happier with the results! What impressed me most was not just his fantastic skill but also his friendly demeanor. He alleviated all the stress we had and turned a fiasco into a success story. We’ll definitely be calling Deeb again for any future projects around the house. If you're on the lookout for a reliable handyman who truly knows his stuff, don't hesitate to reach out to DC Family Home Improvements. Trust me; you won’t regret it! 10/10 recommend!!! 🌟"

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Lexington, OK

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.
