"I contacted Bluestar Air Mechanical for a second opinion after an appointment with Air One. I have a Carrier HVAC system, and the Air One technician recommended a complete system replacement, claiming the blower was bad, the furnace control board needed replacing, and that there were other issues. Since replacing the HVAC is a big investment, I wanted to get a second opinion. It was only after comparing the service from Bluestar that I realized Air One may have been pushing for a new system sale or lacked the expertise to properly diagnose and repair the actual problems. Isaac, the technician from Bluestar, spent about an hour thoroughly diagnosing and fixing the issues. He found burnt wiring in the furnace and discovered that the wrong capacitor had been incorrectly installed in the AC. Isaac replaced the burnt wiring in the furnace and the capacitor in the AC. After these repairs, my Carrier system was back up and running—without the need for a costly replacement. Bluestar, and Isaac in particular, demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and honesty. They focused on resolving the actual issues instead of pushing for an unnecessary system replacement. I highly recommend Bluestar for their reliable service and Isaac’s thorough and knowledgeable work."

"Travis Grove contacted me less than a minute after I submitted a request. He came day-of on a Friday afternoon to inspect, and quickly found the capacitor had failed. He had a replacement on hand, though the issue was the fan as well. Travis made sure to keep me informed of parts availability (fan vendor closed on weekends), and text me updates. If his arrival time changed, he made sure to let me know. The new fan is more powerful, to provide better cooling. He noticed my refrigerant pressure was low as well, and made sure to fill it up. Travis was friendly and easy to talk to. His price was very reasonable, including all parts and multiple hours of labor over two days. My system is working well and cooling better than before. All set for the summer heat!"

"Professional,
Knowledgeable, Integrity, Reasonable Price, Quick Response, these are some of the characteristics that I would use to describe Kurt Randell and AHS.  We have used several mold remediation services and Air Quality Checks in the past at various properties with mixed results.  Based on reviews and my external validations of Kurt?s certifications we used AHS.  Simply put, we were Very Happy.  Kurt was easy to schedule, prompt to arrive, and leveraged several electronic tools, including infrared, moisture meter, and an air sampling to determine if we had an issue. Our experience with AHS was identical if not better then the others on Angies List.  Our primary goal was to determine allergens in the air as one family member was experiencing heightened allergies in the basement.  We had 5 air samples taken through out the house and no issues were identified.  Kurt also checked for excessive moisture/ water in the basement to determine if we had a leak or water seeping in through the basement.  After one of the bigger June 2013 storms experienced in Metro DC (yes those), Kurt came back after the initial work was completed to determine if we had a basement issue.  Kurt found slightly elevated moisture levels in one 3' X 4' section of the basement, but not enough to warrant remediation.  Instead we placed this on the watch list.  Kurt could have easily attempted to make this into an issuing requiring remediation and bigger dollars, but he did not.  That shows integrity and commitment to his work. We would not hesitate to use Kurt/ AHS again. "

"I walked in ABS's repair shop, at 6PM (closing time), with a part from my car and asked them if they had or knew where I could get a replacement part.  I described the problem with my car and they took time to listen to me and understand the problem.   They asked me to bring the car to their shop but it was not drive-able.  So they offered to tow my car to their shop, for free, and  diagnose the problem with my car.  They gave me a verbal estimate of what the repair would cost, based on my description of the problem and the part in my hand.  They said they would call me in the morning with an estimate and timeline to complete the repair.   
The next morning, around 9:30am, I received a call at work from ABS. They had my car in the shop and told me I needed a new radiator.  They told me the cost would be $425.00 and that they could get it done that day provided they could get the part.  I said do it.
They called me around 3:30pm and told me my car was fixed.  
I picked it up a 6pm...closing time( again) and they took time to review the repair with me.  
I will definitely bring my cars to ABS for maintenance and repairs in the future.

"I bought an Angie's List deal. They called shortly after I bought the deal to set up a time that worked for us, called the day before and called 30 minutes before arriving. The plumber (Jerome) was very helpful and did excellent work replacing a shower cartridge that I was unable to fix myself. I had a flapper issue that I was not sure how to handle. He explained what needed to be done in clear and easy terms. He would have been happy to do it for me, but I'm pretty handy, so he explained what I should do to fix it myself and I have now done so. We also need to replace a tub spout in a situation where it will be difficult and require cutting out tiles to address. He explained what would be needed, advised on the advantages of various brands, explained the pricing in a way that made sense and suggested that when I'm ready, I should cut out the tile (I'm fine with that), take a couple photos with my phone and they should be able to both price it and give me a sense for the time it is apt to take. Jerome was excellent and I would be delighted to have Jerome or Drain Surgeons back for future plumbing work as needed"

"Drymount Air came out twice and did a great job. They replaced a leaking flu pipe on my furnace, replaced a bathroom faucet, installed a new toilet kit, changed a water filter, and air balancing. Their expertise, professionalism and fair pricing have made them my go-to company for any plumbing and hvac needs."

"Vinh did an excellent and thorough job. He noticed the bathroom sink valves (previously replaced) had one valve knob missing, which he highly recommended replacement of both valves. The removal of old faucet and new kitchen faucet/sink install was hard work but done quite well. Once main water was turned back on, Vinh made sure the new bathroom valves and kitchen faucet had no leak issues. All was done perfectly. Will hire Jiffy again."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Rock-point, MD

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.
