"I checked a few vendors and received much higher quotes. When Randy came out it was clear he knew what he was doing. He was a pleasure to work with and he set the job for just a few days later (our old system was still working so no emergency). The guys were right on time and did the install and removal in under 7 hours. They were courteous and efficient. Great Job. I would use them again, as a matter of fact I'm asking them to give me a quote on a backup generator. John"

"I had a tech here within one hour of calling on a Saturday evening. On Monday morning I received a follow up cal from Anthony's to schedule a follow up visit. Both Nick who came on Saturday and Julio who came o Tuesday were excellent. They demonstrated a great attitude as well as a high degree of knowledge. I have worked with Anthony's for a number of years first servicing my 20 year old system to installing and servicing my new system. I also appreciated the great service without any pressure to replace old 20 yr old relic. I selected Anthony's because of the reputation. They are not overrated."

"They did some really good auto work on my car. I really trust them. They're good guys. In the last moth, I've been in twice. I checked with another shop and their prices were in line with them. They're really nice with their customers and they got me out a lot sooner than expected, so I was glad. I told them, "Go ahead and take your time." I knew that they were rushed, but they got me out early. It thought that was great. I heard them talking to other customers and they were just so honest. (They didn't know I was eavesdropping on conversations, but...) Being upfront really matters to me. I think they're upfront and honest and that's so important in automotive work. They did the tie rod this time which is important or your tire goes off. Someone told me it's really, really important so I went and got it done."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Tallevast, 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.
