"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."

"On the coldest day of the season so far, our heater went out. While my wife and I could tough it out for a day or 2, our infant son needed it fixed now. It was around 7 am when we called (which is when they open) and got the voicemail, so my wife left a message briefly explaining that we needed someone that day. We got a call back just a couple of minutes laterfrom Mr. Gary Spann, with an apology for not catching us when we called initially. He was genuinely concerned for the baby, and although his day was starting to fill up, he told us that he could be here in 20 minutes and slip us in before he went to his first call. Twenty minutes later he and and his partner Matt were here. Ten minutes after that he had identified the problem and explained it to me in layman's terms. Ten minutes after that, our heater was fixed and we were shaking hands in my driveway. He did not try to sell me anything I didn't need, and was nice enough to explain as he went. I came away with tthe overall feeling that he was putting my needs ahead of any other concerns. I CANNOT OVERSTATE HOW GREAT THESE GUYS WERE. They were very freindly, professional, honest, and had the kind of practical expertise that only comes with experience. Gary and Matt displayed genuine concern for the wellbeing of my family and treated us more like neighbors than clients. If you want honest, fair treatment from the kind of people you will be glad to give your business to, call them."

"I am Very Satisfied with the work that was performed and the cost!! These guys know their business, they reviewed my furnace and duct system and gave me options. My original request was to replace part of the plenum at the furnace, it was full of mold. Upon inspection they discovered other problems that should be repaired and recommended cleaning the ducts and installing a UV light to kill mold in the future. My son-in-law owns an HVAV business back in Minnesota, so I gave him a call discussing my options. He agreed with Lightspeed Air & Electric's recommendations and that was all I needed to hear. They also fogged the system to kill any existing mold spores! We purchased this home one year ago and finding a few things that need repair. I would recommend Lightspeed Air & Electric to anyone! Great Job Guys !!"

"A professional employee with Air Right came out on a second opinion and found a problem that the other company could not find. The other company wanted me to replace my unit, which I imagine was for the money but Air Right did a repair and saved me a lot of money!"

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Lillian, AL

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.
