"Accu-rite replaced my Lennox airconditioning unit with a new and more efficient unit.  I am completely satisfied with their work and how professional they were.  Again, I highly recommend using this company.  In fact, my son is building a new home, and Accu-rite will be installing 3 air conditioning units and  furnaces in his new home."

"The owner, Chad Adams, came out to provide me an estimate.  He fully reviewed my options, the costs, and the details of each option.  There was no pressure, just informative.  Great guy.
I decided on 7/22 to get one of the options and told Chad.  He scheduled me same day, which was a pleasant surprise. 
The team arrived about 10 and were fully completed around 3.  The installation went well, they cleaned up fully and we'd never know they were there.    The new system is great.
Overall great experience, and I will continue to use American Air for my system.

"I have been using the company for about 7-8 years. I recently had an issue with the heat pump. They were very responsive and came right out. I called them on a Sunday morning and they were out in about 40 minutes. He had to replace 2 parts but only charged me for one of the parts. He did not want to take a chance on having the other part fail down the road and for me to be charged again for that. They try to go the most cost effective route and will not price gauge.I know the owner personally and have known him for several years. He runs an excellent outfit. Being on their plan has really helped me out and gives me great service. They provide an excellent service and are very customer oriented. They are very helpful and happy to work with you on whatever you need. They have always explained to me what they are doing and why which I have really appreciated. They like to keep me informed and are very interactive."

"We have searched for a good, reliable plumber for years and tried quite a few before finding E R a few years ago. We have used them for water heater replacement, water line repair, and most recently, replacing our main water line after our water bills shot out of sight. E R is not necessarily the least expensive, nor are the the highest, but they are extremely responsive, personable, professional and do quality work. I was very impressed when I submitted a request online on a Sunday, non emergency, and got a call back in a short time. That wasn't requested or needed, but very much appreciated. After they came out and determined the problem, I received a quote from Dave that night and prompt answers to questions via email. We've had the same plumber, Taylor, for most of our service and really like him. They did a quality job replacing my water line. U should have listened when they recommended replacing vs repair a few years ago and it would have save me some bucks. A few days after they left, I discovered my irrigation was off. The came back out the next day after I called and realized there was a connection problem and quickly rectified. I'm glad to have a trustworthy and reliable plumber and plan to continue using them in the future."

"The owner Mike was able to come into our house and diagnose a complex environment problem that was causing our heater to run continuously.  (This problem was not solved by several other HVAC contractors)  During Mike's analysis, he performed the standard maintenance routines to validate the HVAC unit was operating properly.  From there, he looked into what other conditions existed into the house that were causing the unit to not sufficiently heat the house.  After a thorough analysis, he was able to then install the home air quality devices onto our existing HVAC unit to dramatically improve our indoor air quality.  With these additional components, we have been able to control our indoor humidity and provide fresh air ventilation automatically.  All of this was set up on an internet capable control module so we can control the entire system from a smartphone.  As a result, the HVAC does not run continuously to heat the house, and now operates very efficiently.

 Mike has been incredibly responsive in the time that we have worked with him.  He has responded to calls, email, and texts very quickly.  His initial service call was on a Sunday afternoon and we have also completed a facetime conversation as part of the diagnosis.  After the initial installation, we had an issue with the equipment itself.  Mike quickly responded, worked with his supplier, and they resolved the issues through the product warranty in the matter of a day. Through the entire process, he has taken a lot of time to completely explain to me what was happening and provided detailed recommendations.  His level of customer service, responsiveness, and communication has been outstanding.

I would definitely recommend Mike and Unique Air for HVAC and home comfort systems."

"Rick and his crew did a wonderful job on something that is a big mess. One of the main reasons I choose Rick was because of his responsiveness to my questions after he provided a quote. That didn't changed after I hired him which was a pleasant surprise. During the process, his crew worked on some interior projects as well and they again did a fantastic job. I would hire Rick McCoy again for large or small projects."

"We were in a huge time crunch as we needed the computer to be repaired TODAY! Jim came out on a Saturday (a big SEC football Saturday at that) and got the computer up and running. He didn't seem rushed or frustrated, just glad to help us. Jim is always professional, always on time and quick to respond to emails or questions. His prices are more than fair, in fact, I paid him more than he asked for because I knew his time was worth more than the price he quoted me."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Mount Holly, NC

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.
