"Patriot was awesome from the start. I got 3 estimates for the same Trane AC units, removal of 2 very old systems and install of 2 new systems and they were the best price by far and offered a 2 year labor warranty on top of it. The removal and install went great and Will wouldn’t leave until I was 100% satisfied with everything. Highly recommend them for any heating or air conditioning needs."

"Great! Keith, Bunnie and their team are professional, pleasant and knowledgeable. They communicate, they are on time, they work cleanly and go the extra mile for service questions. They do not rush and Keith makes certain the customer is pleased with the progress and workmanship. In the Fall 2021, I had the heater replaced and just this past month, 2022 I had AIRCO return to do the air conditioning installation. I own an older home and it required a little extra TLC which Keith planned for and made adjustments as needed. I highly recommend them for any services ...."

"Great, they were friendly and professional. I also had a crack in my windshield that needed to be replaced, they advised me of a person they use and the cost. No pressure to go with their provider. I chose to go with another glass company and I just had to return to get my inspection stickers put onto my new windshield.

"AC was installed by another company listed on Angie's in 2014. Without a maintenance agreement, they charged $89+tax just to come out and check the system. I was then told that the coil needed to be acid washed at a cost of an additional $207+tax. I thought this a bit much for a system that was not that old. Herring's had an offer on Angie's for $84.55 for a 20-point Tune-up including cleaning the coil. Andrew from Herring's checked out the system in the attic and the outside unit and found that the amount of coolant in the system was not what the manufacturer specified. He added two pounds and only charged for one pound @$80, in addition to the $89. He said the coil did not need cleaning. He also suggested we try using a thinner filter in the return vent to see if that helps. A friend has since told me that $80 per pound for coolant is steep, but since he gave one pound free it worked out about right. The AC seemed to be working much better, but the weather cooled down and we have not had 90+ degree days since then, In fact, it has been off for two days of cool weather. I will see how it does when we get another hot spell."

"We finally gave up on constantly maintaining our ‘builders quality’ original York HVAC and heater. The heater worked fine if inefficient, but the AC coils had a leak which was not divulged when we bought the 8 year old house. When we bought it the owners must have just charged it up, so the slow leak wouldn’t be discovered until a full year later when we went to start up the AC the next summer. The problem was ours to handle now and seeing that we had other problems to deal with, it was never in the budget to do more than just get it recharged year after year. Regulations changed, refrigerant changed, time aged the system, and parts became scarce. Finally after 11 years of dealing with it and tinkering with the concept of replacing the entire thing, we decided the time to do it was summer 2015 (yes a year + ago). We obtained quotes from our regular HVAC repair company, as well as Horizon, and Green Electric, Heating & Cooling. We tried to obtain quotes for everything as comparable as possible. Min 95% efficiency, 100k BTU Heater 3.5 to 4 ton Coil with 16 Seer Puron Condensing Unit 50 gallon Water Heater (replaced the first one when we just moved in 2003) The Green representative was very professional and friendly. He pointed out the options and listened to my concerns without making me feel like he needed to be somewhere else. Horizon sent some guy that was a little bit cocky but knew his stuff. I am familiar with the Horizon company but have never given them any work to this day. Our regular HVAC guy did everything by phone since we had been going back and forth for a few years discussing the available options, but his tech was getting a bit on the old side and his efficiency ratings were not quite what we wanted once we tried to balance everything out between offers. Our normal guy offered Ruud. Horizon offered Lennox. Green offered Bryant. Everyone offered the same Bradley White water heater, but I toyed with the idea of a higher efficiency model which required a powered vent and dedicated pipes to the outside. After all the quotes were obtained, we began to get high pressure calls from Horizon where they were offering a discount if we come to a decision “NOW”! Apparently they had a team ready to do an install, but it was cancelled and they wanted to do something to fill the time. We don’t react to high pressure situations, and immediately crossed them off the list. I received a call from a manager a few days later and described the situation in detail. He was not happy with what I told him regarding his employee behaviors. So is life. My wife and I deliberated for a bit longer, made best and final requests to obtain better pricing and confirm certain things would be done, and then locked in with Green. We decided on the following: 97% efficiency, 100k BTU heater, infinitely variable heat (not single or two stage). Infinitely variable fan. 4 ton evaporator coil. 3.5ton 16 seer condensing unit, single stage, but we got the ultra quiet version. You can stand 2 feet away from it and talk with someone at normal volume. It is silent from 10 feet away. Standard 50 gallon water heater. We set a date and then proceeded to cross our fingers that we made the right decision. Things moved very quickly after that. This was going to be a full swap out which required bringing everything to current township regulations. This meant PVC piping to the exterior foundation wall for the high efficiency furnace, new valves and switches, new copper lines, extra ductwork and dampers, new outdoor pad for the new condensing unit, and a new thermostat. They showed up bright and early in the morning. 2 guys started the teardown. They asked me a few simple questions about if I wanted the Heating unit at the same elevation and the preferred “front” orientation of the heater. Later for the pipe routing of the heater vents, we had to move boxes out of the way so they could drill large holes for the PVC pipe. None of this was an issue. The old unit was ripped out and taken away as if it was never there, and very cleanly and without drama. Then while the ductwork was opened, they educated me in the damper system that was installed in our ductwork that may cause air distribution issues, and then showed me how to adjust it seasonally. The builders installed a damper above the heater that 30% blocked the exit flow. This damper is there to balance out the upstairs in the summer and winter. It was near impossible to see without someone pointing it out as the handle was between other ductwork. It was very educational. They also noticed what they called a “short circuit” in the ductwork. There was a duct return that came into a header in a narrow duct but the expansion was about 2 feet down further. They moved the flex hose of the return to the expansion just to help balance out the flow. Again, very educational. There was no extra cost or fanfare with this. About 6 hours into the build, another person showed up to help. He immediately started on the hot water heater. The old one had no issues but it was 10 years old. This was a quick swap as we decided not to go with the high efficiency model with the powered vent, since it would require cutting two more holes in the foundation wall. About 8 hours after they started, they were cleaning up. They helped push all the boxes back for me, swept the floors, and proceeded to show me the awesome Bryant HVAC control. It is wifi enabled and can be controlled remotely via an app on your phone. And I do mean FULL control. Full programming, full error reporting, full adjustments of all profiles. The color touch screen looks great and the app duplicates the screen perfectly, so there is no re-learning how to do the things you need. It is also one of those thermostats where you set the high and low points and it will keep the temperature in that range. No longer do you have to switch from “hot” to “cool”. It also has the installer phone number programmed into it, and has full diagnostic self-checking capabilities so it can send a call for help should it need it. It can also report the weather forecast. In a word, it is “wonderful”. Overall, we are extremely satisfied. We have used the AC for two seasons now and the heater for one season so far. I cannot say the electric bills have gotten lower, and the primary reason for that is that we now use it ALL THE TIME. The condensing unit does not struggle to get the temp where we want it. But since the house is drafty, it runs frequently. The old unit we would just shut it off for days at a time if we could bear with the heat as it would run all day long, so in theory it was cheaper since we shut it down. Our gas bill has gone down 30% when compared to the same period last year. I am very satisfied with the installation crew, the installation itself, and the functionality of the installed system. About one year later, I realized I completely forgot I needed to get the township to inspect the installation. The inspector came out and found the tiniest problem. Apparently kids like to huff Puron. The outdoor fill ports on the condensing unit needed these little colorful locking caps installed. Because of this I did not pass inspection and called Green to remedy the situation. They were out within 24 hours and installed the caps. No charge, no fuss. The inspector came back, and gave everything a clean bill of health. He also personally told me without my provoking, that my installation is one of the best he has seen in the county. He specifically pointed out how clean the install was, and the use of full pvc schedule 40 pipe, all glued, for the heater vents as something he sees other installers cheapen out on. He was impressed. I continue to be."

"Amazing service, price, professionalism and competence! I HIGHLY recommend if you are looking for a locally owned company with integrity and great service. At first, I was skeptical about getting our vents cleaned out and was afraid it was a scam. I called around, read reviews on Angies List and saw that this company was rated the highest. I called Joel, the owner of the company, and was quickly impressed with his professionalism and knowledge. He answered all my questions-even the tough one's directly assessing if it was really worth it-and provided a very affordable quote right over the phone. He was flexible in scheduling, arrived on time and was consistently responsive to all calls. Joel and Terrance showed up at 7:00 am and worked until almost 8:00 pm-almost 13 hours straight! Despite the job taking double the expected time, Joel did not raise the price and maintained the initial quote. The reason it took so long was because our vents were a MESS and Joel wanted to make sure they did an excellent job, which they did. We've flooded in the past and our vents were covered with a thick, sticky layer of mud-like stuff (how did I not know this before!?!). Joel invited me to see the vents before and then again after so I witnessed first hand how much hard work they had to do. Before he started he asked all the right questions, explained the process and showed me what they did throughout the day. As a homeowner, I don't think I've ever had a more enjoyable and positive experience in terms of home maintenance than with this company. Joel owns the company, has so much pride in his work, and is genuinely concerned about doing an excellent job. He and Terrance displayed an admirable work ethic that is less common to see today. Furthermore, they were just great guys with wonderful interpersonal skills. My husband and I liked them so much we actually invited them to share dinner with us-which was fantastic. After 13 hours of work, Joel even offered to not charge us for an add on service they provided! I happily paid him anyway (their services were worth more than what they charged), but that was just another example of the wonderful honesty, integrity and professionalism that characterizes this company. Overall, I offer my unwavering support of this company. You will not be disappointed!

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in New Hope, PA

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.
