"Ellington Air is wonderful. I came home to a thermostat with a black screen. It was 4:48pm and I called. The woman who answered the phone was great and they had a tech out to my house before 6pm. Mike was super professional, nice, answered all my questions, explained things so I could. understand. I have used Ellington Air for several years and will continue to use them. They have never failed in providing me excellent service. I highly recommend them."

"We recently had work done by Iron Air. A service issue with no heat during cold weather became a new a/c install due to age and availability of parts. Joe got us information and pricing quickly and scheduled the work. The work was completed in a professional, competent and efficient manner. The technicians were patient with all our questions and were careful inside and out and left all areas clean. All follow-up communication was excellent and timely. The value of the product and installation was excellent. The company went out of their way to give above average service. We highly recommend Iron Air."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in New Smyrna 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.
