"9 hours- twice as long as expected. The old tank was impacted with over a foot of silt so they had to siphon the water out the top (not their fault). That alone put them behind by 2 hours. Then they had trouble getting the new up-to-code flu installed (their fault). But the team stuck with it and got everything in properly, instead of cutting corners or leaving it half-done and returning the next day."

"Charlie was wonderful in troubleshooting our issue. Although the issue wasn't able to be fixed straight away due to parts having to be ordered, he provided a temporary solution that was satisfactory until parts arrived. With temperatures below 30, he was a life savior. He also helped us on the same-day appointment on a Saturday. The best part of this experience, was Charlie also solved other issues that he had noticed with the moisture senors, which saved a potential problem with the AC come summer. Oh, he also helped improve our thermostats. All and all, very pleased with ARP Heating and Air, and would highly recommend."

"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!!! 🌟"

"Called them at 7:30 right when they opened. They said they could be out between 11 and 1 but would call if they got through with a job early. Called and said they could be out at 0930. Got there on time, determined my power cord had a short in it. Replaced it and checked out the unit to make sure everything else was functioning correctly. Very professional and friendly!"

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.
