"The whole process went very well... from the initial consultation until the installation. Installing the system only took one day and it works great. After a bit of research, the price is probably a bit on the high side but I'd rather do that and get the job done right. Recommended."

"We needed our boiler replaced and had multiple companies come and look at the job. We ended up selecting Sila as we read good reviews on the company. Sila surpassed our expectations. The tech who performed the install (Gage) was on time, communicated the entire process to us from start to finish and did a tremendous job. He also made sure to clean up afterwards and was very professional. We would absolutely hire Sila again!"

"We installed a Fujitsu mini-split A/C and heat pump because installing duct work was not an option. The entire process from getting a quote to completing the installation couldn't have been any better. Joe went over the full scope of the project including the ramifications if any additional work was needed. I don't think one could find a better HVAC company than Airco!"

"Palmer Gas recently installed a propane tank for us, and we were impressed with their services. They were excellent to work with. Josh who was the installer was conscientious, knowledgeable and went the extra mile. We highly recommend."

"The personable owner, Tony Del Papa, came out to give us
an estimate for installing exhaust fans in our bathroom. Since we
hadn't bought the fans yet, it was helpful that he told us what to
look for and suggested a particular brand. We then ordered fans
through Lowe's.
The company was prompt with returning calls and providing a written
estimate in the mail.
Once we had an appointment with the company that was going to vent the
fans, we scheduled Village Electric to come out several days before
that day.The two workers who came out were courteous and arrived within the
hour time window we expected them. We tested out the fans and they
worked fine, but we waited until they were vented to the outside to
actually use them.
The quality of the electrical work performed was good, but we had a
couple of minor issues, which is the reason that we gave a B for
professionalism. To install the fans, the workers had to go into the attic.
They had to move some insulation from the attic floor
and did not roll it back into place when they were done, and the
insulation batting covering the attic hatch mysteriously disappeared.
 
Also, a piece of ceiling that needed to be cut out was left in the
attic instead of being discarded. Replacement of the junction box for
the master bathroom light/fan switches caused a ceramic towel bar to
partly detach from the wall.
We have used Village Electric several times before, and this is the
only time anything like this has happened. We informed
them about it and don't expect to have any future problems, so we will
use them again.

"Matthew responded very quickly to my call and showed up promptly thereafter. He was very professional and worked diligently to get my boiler working again and the heat restored to my home. He was able to diagnose the problem rather quickly and fixed the issue, even going so far as to explain many of the parts he had to replace and made me feel very comfortable that my unit was running efficiently when it was all done. I would highly recommend NexGen Aire and plan to call Matthew again for future issues. Fast, efficient, and affordable."

"They first came out to do a routine check and informed us of what we should / needed to do to have our fire place perform better. The quote they provided was very reasonable. We decided to install a rain cap after the sweep and getting an appointment was very easy. The technician arrived early and completed the work quickly."

"My wife and I are glad that we chose to work with Accutemp, and in particular, their residential manager, Matt, for our HVAC installation. Matt was extremely responsive, clear, and upfront during the entire process, from the planning phase, to post-installation questions. We have already recommended Matt and Accutemp to several of our friends, including our neighbors past and present. With regard to the particular project we worked with Accutemp on, my wife and I bought a house in Newton built in the 1800s that didn't have any air conditioning. We had gotten multiple estimates and met with a number of contractors to discuss the project, as the age of the house and the unique interior layout and design made it a very challenging job. We ended up having a ductless mini-split heat pump system installed (provides both heat and AC). Matt and Accutemp not only gave us the most competitive bid in terms of financials, but there's was also the only bid to include the installation of a sixth indoor air handling unit. Every other contractor we met with insisted that five would be sufficient. Having now lived through some 90+ degree days, we can definitively say that the sixth unit is essential to keeping the whole house cool and comfortable. On the initial date of HVAC install, Matt and his team arrived at our home to find that my electrician (who had to do major work preceding the HVAC install) had not stuck to his original stated plan, completely throwing off Accutemp's plans. In less than thirty minutes, Matt spoke with the electrician, discussed the available options with me, and formulated an alternative, the results of which we were equally happy with. Matt also came out and reviewed the functioning of our boiler, along with recommended repair/replacement options and the cost of each option. Ultimately, we decided not to replace the boiler, but we have a better sense of how and when to approach doing so after meeting with him and discussing it. Finding reliable contractors in any field can be difficult, and in particular with HVAC, we had less-than stellar service in the past in the Boston area. We are happy to have found Accutemp and Matt, and look forward to working with them in the future on all of our HVAC needs."

"Provider was very pleasant and arrived on time. He replaced our outdoor faucet and we upgraded to a frost free version. The water shut off for our faucet is inside the house, which created a little more work for the installer, but he was able to finish the install without an issue. Very easy transaction from start to finish. "

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Methuen, MA

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.
