"Reconsider other options. Had a $27,700 furnace/heat pump installed 3 months ago and first time turning on ac and heated air came out. Called for service for next time off 5 days later and was required to be on call with 20minutes notice for the entire day – “typical cardinal procedure” (Jasmine – “we give you 20 minutes notice so not to inconvenience you) till 230pm – which after much side stepping Andy finally admitted that customers to be oncall was not in the contract. Jasmine said it was emergency repair for a system that should have been installed correctly but was not able to schedule after hours – then could but would charge. Ian D. showed up and stated wires/switch were not installed correctly – surprise – never even tested – and “never should of happened.” Asked why I had to be on call to compensate for mis-install – ‘I am not the scheduling department.’ Ask Ian to fill out a diagnostic repair sheet (22words) said he had to leave and had an important phone call and was not suppose to even be on service call that I was waiting for on call, for the entire day. Ian did return 15min later since his phone call was canceled. Asked for a quote to install my uv light (drill 4 holes and plug into outlet) $287. Maybe you don’t have a job and can be on call for free 24/7, spend more than 28k, and only expect half of the things to work – then I could recommend cardinal – so far."

"TDS provided excellent quality and service from start to finish. They removed the old brick chimney that was between the kitchen and dining room, and they did such an excellent job containing the demo debris that I didn’t even have to dust after! They also protected our existing flooring very well. You also can’t even see the patching on the ceiling. And at the end of the job, the PM let us know of a couple other issues he spotted in the attic (replacing vents) but didn’t pressure us in any way to sign them on for another project. I highly recommend them!"

Swamp cooler installations and replacements FAQs
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.
