"I called and they sent someone out the next day. They were prompt and efficient and most of all the swamp cooler was repaired. The price they charged was excellent. I also signed up for a maintenance contract based on how well they took care of this problem. There are not a lot of places left who service swamp coolers so this was a good find. I have already recommended them to my sister for service on the air conditioning system in her home."

"So many GREAT things to say about Air-Tech. First, I had a split system installed on one side of a duplex about 10 years ago. It was permitted and passed. Less than a year later I learned there were leaks/problems with it. The original installer wouldn't come back as they no longer worked in this geographical area and the European units weren't being used. Thank God they recommended Air-Tech! They fixed the system and offered an annual maintenance check where they come out every 6 months and check for leaks, clean filters, etc. Their office is so wonderful about reminding me if I have forgotten to set up an appointment. Their guys are ALWAYS professional, clean and courteous. Well, two months ago the tenants in the other side of the duplex requested AC and I knew Air-Tech would be great. I called Alex out (what a super nice guy) and he came over the next day I think. I remember it was a Saturday. Since the price of these system had gone up substantially from when I bought it ten years I was shocked. I signed the contract and gave him a deposit but after talking to BF he suggested I get other bids for something that expensive. I called Alex and asked him to put my project on hold for a week while I looked at bids. I think he was surprised because I knew them and the system but I felt like I needed to be prudent. He wasn't rude or short. He was very respectful. The other company's estimators were pleasant enough and I learned about some options for a second gas heating system that I wanted installed at another location. The other company's prices were similar. One added a city inspection which I was doing as an added cost ot Air-Tech's price and the other company added five years of maintenance onto their price. So the prices were a bit higher. I knew I'd be purchasing the maintenance services from Air-Tech so I knew how that compared. I called Alex back about a week later and said: "Let's go. Thank you for the time to check around and feel confident. Armando and Andrew have installed the systems this week and I could NOT BE HAPPIER. I am amazed that Armando knows so much about electrical, gas and mechanical systems. Andrew is very helpful and knowledgeable and quick to make sure things are clean. Every time someone has come out from Air-Tech they are nice, neat, respectful and focused on their work. They aren't taking calls on their phone, they aren't talking excessively, etc. ANYWAY, as part of the installation for the gas wall heater they discovered that there are two gas leaks under the raised property. Someone had installed temporary shut off valves for two previously serviced gas units (a floor furnace and radiator we think). Yikes! Air-Tech was supposed to be done with ALL the work yesterday and while it's not as convenient to be at the property another day I am so thankful that they found the leak and are fixing them without charging me any money! How can they do that? I think it's because they know I'm a loyal customer. I'll be purchasing the maintenance contracts. Thank you Alex, Armando and Andrew. So happy to be working with you!"

"I’m so glad I called HD mechanical to have my thermostat fixed. We set a time to meet up and he was there on time and very professional. He was very thorough with his work and explained to me all the work he performed. He even checked and serviced my unit, showing me that my filter needed to be changed. Would definitely recommend to anyone who needs and service/repairs done."

"I own a laundry and needed two new swamp coolers. I called DNA and Andrew came out and from our first meeting was very professional. He was knowledgeable and able to answer all my questions which put me at ease. These guys did a bang up job. They were clean and made short work of removing my old units and installing of the new ones. I would highly recommend DNA for future work."

"I am very pleased with the quality of work Matthew, Shawn and their staff did with the Main Sewer check valve replacement and the Main Shutoff Valve replacement. The Main Shutoff valve replacement and the Hydro Jet cleaning of the Main Sewer line was not part of the initial job to be done. Matthew authorized the added job without additional charge to the original quote I was given. Matthew and Shawn has great knowledge and answered all my questions to my satisfaction. They gave me a fair price, they were very professional, thorough and polite, from beginning to end. Clear explanation of needed repairs, sound advice without any inkling of price gouging or questionable add-on expenses whatsoever. Respectable and conscientious, could not be happier. Even very neat and clean. The people that worked with Matthew and Shawn were also very professional and very thorough. I will recommend them to my friends who need a plumber and call them again when the time comes I need a plumber. I will rate the work they did with A+ and Excellent!!!"

"We would HIGHLY recommend Joseph from Canyon City Air if you are in need of a new HVAC system or in need of service! He and his crew performed excellent work. They were professional, friendly, detailed, knowledgeable, honest, and cleaned up everything thoroughly afterwards. He even contacted us a couple of days later to check in with us!"

"110% recommend Calclimate HVAC for anyone who needs heating and cooling services in the Burbank area. I recently had them install a new HVAC system in my elderly father's condo, and I was very impressed with their work. The system hadn't been turned on in decades, so it was in pretty bad shape. Calclimate's technicians were professional and knowledgeable, and they did a great job of assessing the situation and recommending the best system for my father's needs given that there are no natural gas hookups and all appliances run on electricity. They were also very patient and understanding. The installation process went smoothly, and the technicians were very clean and organized. They also took the time to explain everything to my father, so he understood how the system worked. I'm so grateful to Calclimate for their help. My father is now comfortable and cool in his condo, and he can finally enjoy the benefits of central heating and cooling. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for HVAC services in Burbank."

FAQs for swamp cooler service or repair projects in Pasadena, CA

A well-maintained swamp cooler can last between 10 and 15 years. Its longevity depends on usage frequency, water quality, and proper care. Regular maintenance, like winterization and protective measures, can preserve your system's efficiency and prevent premature breakdowns, ensuring reliable cooling performance over its lifespan. Hiring a professional to take care of any repairs over your swamp cooler’s lifespan will ensure it’s restored to proper functioning and can help it last longer.

You should consider replacing your swamp cooler if it shows signs of severe corrosion, inadequate maintenance, advanced age, restricted airflow, or ongoing leaks. When repair costs and performance inefficiencies make restoration impractical, replacement may be the best option. Evaluating these issues with a professional ensures you choose the most effective solution, preserving comfort and cost efficiency while avoiding further deterioration of the system.
