"DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. They wrongly installed new equipment and refuse to correct it. -------------- Here's the scam: Sell and put in a unit that mostly works, but needs annual repairs due to your incorrect installation. Parts are under warranty, but the service/labor is not, so you'll constantly call them out to work on the issues they created but refuse to actually fix. --------------- Eagle Air was recommended by my home warranty, American Home Shield. They replaced 2 full HVAC systems (furnaces and A/C) in my home. Total cost $15K+ Unbeknownst to me they did not replace the original copper lines. Replacement is standard when putting in a new unit as old lines are prone to leak. Per the installation manuals from the manufacturer, these lines are not the correct size for either of the units. I had an independent, licensed HVAC repair company out to confirm this as well. When this was brought to Eagle's attention, Angie said "We don't know if that's true. People lie about our work all the time." When I spoke to Tony, sent him images in email, he said "Don't worry about it." We scheduled an appointment in 5 days them to come assess the issues. I took off work for the day to wait 10-2p. At 1:25 I called to check in. Angie told me they were not coming. That they had cancelled the visit as I didn't want to pay the $149 travel fee (as these issues were part of their initial install) and that they didn't like the way I treated them. I was also not allowed to speak with Tony. They are refusing further communication and are not accountable for their own work. They knowingly installed this not to manufacture's speculations. This choice creates ongoing problems with the unit. As a customer and not an HVAC tech, I never would have identified this incorrect install without a 3rd party."

Swamp cooler installations and replacements FAQs
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.
