"We hired Solid Rock to install a new AC unit and to also replace the old heating system. They did both in a matter of only a couple of days! They even agreed to remove the old wall heating unit and take care of all that. They were such a pleasure to have around, very professional, respectful and kind to our little home. They were always on time, had all their materials ready, and their dynamic was a pleasure to watch. We've had workers in our home before, but Emmanuel and his team work at a different level. I was nervous having to call for a team, especially being 7 months pregnant and already having another team of workers doing floors and drywall while they had to install the hvac. However, their professionalism, respect, adaptability, and cooperation made it a very pleasant experience. My family and I highly recommend Solid Rock!"

"I had Emergency Air out to help with a water heater issue. Not only did they take care of my immediate issue but they even brought me my morning coffee. I will for sure use them going forward for any plumbing or HVAC work in the future!"

"I had my old A/C unit replaced last year and it never work right like the old A/C did, when the old A/C unit was working. After checking out the new unit the repairman had to get into the upstairs craw space and found the A/C was wired wrong. He wired it up correctly and now I'm enjoying my new A/C. Good Job.

"Experience was great, we just needed a checkup but received a great assessment on the condition. We also had a programmable thermostat for the large unit and replaced the capacitor. Would defiantly use the service again and recommend. It would be nice to drop the $40 service charged for going to Black Canyon City. We were informed of the surcharge when scheduling and I know your company must keep a service area but we are just 10 miles north of Anthem. Regardless we would still use your services in the future. During the. service we were informed of the capacitor on the larger unit,they also installed a programmable thermostat system for that same unit. Helen Graham"

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Sun City West, AZ

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.
