"The sales agent was punctual and very knowledgeable. He provided a range of options and we felt that he was focused on selling the "right" system to meet our needs and not just the most expensive option. Because our timeframe was compressed, he worked with us to expedite the installation (next day). The installer was also very professional & knowledgeable. The system was installed in the estimated amout of time (approx 4 hours). The only disappointment was that the installed arrived approx 1 hour later than anticipated but since the install was pushed to the next day, there may have been previous commitments that dictated the delay."

"We're a couple living in a multi-unit condo building and identified possible issues with mold in the air ducts. Our landlord called Best Choice to assess and remedy the situation. Eric and Matt came out and identified what was going on, investigated the likely causes, provided a range of options, and executed exactly what they said they would do. They wound up cleaning the ducts with a sanitizing gas and installing a UV light at the AC intake to prevent future outbreaks. They were always professional, punctual, and all-around considerate. They were clear about environmental factors such as noise and scent, so we knew what to expect at every step. They were very conscientious of the current COVID situation, and, upon request, were always wearing a mask and distancing themselves as best as possible. Before leaving, they provided a clear outlook for what to expect as the dead mold spores exited the ducts. Best Choice came out on 08 June; it's currently 13 June, and exactly what Eric and Matt told us to expect is exactly what happened. They were also explicit on how to safely handle the UV light. The UV light hardware---for which Eric provided a range of options and our landlord went with an upper-end one---was a large percentage of the cost. Otherwise, Best Choice charged on a per-vent basis; we have six vents and one AC intake. Concerning price negotiation and communications to arrange appointments, we cannot comment directly, as we're renting, and the landlord did these things. However, based on how the actual service went for us, we have no concerns if we ever need to contact them directly. If we ever own in Central Florida and have issues with mold or air ducts, we're going with these guys!"

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Satellite 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.
