I contacted this company to get estimates for three different projects. We had met with two other professionals who had recommended that our A/C unit was replaced immediately. Weathershield gave us other options. They sent two guys to make an assessment and it turn out to be one the best experiences during my home remodeling project.

John and his partner completed a through assessment of my A/C unit and made recommendations based on what I was requesting. With his assessment and recommendations we were able to save money and still get work done. He explained to us that although our unit was dated it did not need immediate replacement. He recommended that we clean coils and gave us different options for the new vent. He sent additional information via email on AC units including an estimate for a new unit and  our very much needed ceiling insulation.

We decided to hire this company based on our experience with the John and the information he shared with us. Their prices were very reasonable prices when comparing them to the other two companies. They sent Jose and his partner for the new vent and they did a great job. The work was neatly done and the room cools like a the rest of the house. John came to clean our coils. He removed the entire unit and cleaned everything to perfection. Our A/C unit is working fine.

I highly recommend this company based on my experience with the quality of the work performed and most importantly their honesty. From their customer service staff to their technicians this company deserves an A. 

Once we complete some electrical work in the house, we will hire them for the installation of the ceiling insulation.

Every time we ran into some kind of problem they were able to fix everything we needed and more.

"I found this company had high ratings so we contacted them for an estimate to replace our non-function air conditioner. They were the cheapest estimate out of three others we got. The installation went great and was completed in less than four hours. I love our new thermostat that they installed because I can use it with my Iphone which helps while my wife and I are at work. Overall, very please with the service we recieved from this company. I will use them again in the future."

"The work went great. Aside from arriving a little after we were told the work went smoothly. Darnell was very informative in everything that was needed. They even went as far as adding refrigerant at no extra cost. I have a hard time communicating sometimes and the communication breakdown caused me some issue in properly communicating some of the items that needed clarification. This was my fault. In any case I would hire them again. They did a great job."

"I signed up through Angies List for a cleaning of up to A/C seven ducts for $175.  On arrival, the provider counted 15 ducts and charged me an additional $30 of each of the eight additional ducts (which works out to another $240 for eight, or $210 for seven of the eight) and another $100 because I have two A/C air handlers instead of just one.  
If I had bought two of the $175 Angies List offers (which would have covered 14 ducts and two A/C units), there would have been no charge for seven of the eight "extra" ducts and no charge for the extra A/C unit.   So, I would have paid $380 ($175 X 2 + $30) instead of the $515 this service ended up costing.  I did not appreciate the upcharging.
Also, the provider dropped one of my duct covers on a wooden sideboard, denting it (I let that go, but now will have to live with a new gouge).
The moral of this story is to count your ducts before you use this provider -- or prepared to be hit with extra charges at a higher rate than the one used in the offers if you have more than seven ducts.

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Miami Beach, FL

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.
