"Fontana Brothers installed my new Bosch HVAC system, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Freddie and Shaquille arrived exactly on time, worked efficiently, and left the work area cleaner than it was before they began. Their attention to detail and professionalism were outstanding. As a Realtor for more than 30 years, I’ve dealt with many HVAC companies, and Fontana Brothers continues to be one of the very best. They consistently deliver excellent service to both me and my clients, and their pricing remains highly competitive. I trust them completely with my referrals. Special thanks to Dan Fontana, who heads the service department — always organized, responsive, and helpful — as well as the entire office staff, who are consistently friendly and a pleasure to work with. I will absolutely continue to recommend Fontana Brothers to others seeking HVAC installation, repair, or replacement."

"Ken called before he came and got here on time. He was alone as he said his helper was not to be there today. He worked hard. Explained everything about my AC unit inside, air ducts and advised of things I could make it better and also what things my regular service checks should look for. He opened and cleaned the entire ac unit of ducts, sucked out, did each register, cleaned those outside and sucked and cleaned out with a roto brush while sucking. Put all back together. Little mess. I just swept floors and vacuumed a bit. His units to decrease mold installed are so much cheaper than any others! This guy is great and busy. Only Takes checks or cash, but only $199.00 for unlimited ducts /one unit. He works hard and alone took 3 hours! Good work. Sanitize also! House is clean! Thank you ! Telling my Neighbors!"

"West Coast Cold Air, Inc., is a great company. The owner Fernando, is highly reliable and a man of his word. After an exhaustive search to replace a dishonest and failing A/C Contractor who lied to us about his LIC and qualifications, we found West Coast Cold Air on the City of St. Petersburg, FL License Contractor List. After the fact we discovered West Coast Cold Air is registered with Angie List. I called Fernando and he promptly came out to the house we are renovating to assess our HVAC project requirements for an older two-story home that never had A/C. After interviewing nine other A/C contractors with no success due to their insurance coverage or internal business policy preventing them from touching equipment or completing another A/C contractors work. West Coast Cold Air did not hesitate to take on the job and assumed full ownership of the recently installed but abandoned equipment and uncompleted second floor project requirements. Fernando informed us to go to the City Permit Office to change the Contractor name on the recorded HVAC permit to his company's name and guided us through the arduous city of St. Petersburg permit process. The install was completed in four days to include: completing the missing Manual J Air inspection to complete the permit; finishing the install of the downstairs Mitsubishi ductless mini-split systems/outside condenser; sourcing and installing a new Central Air system for the upstairs: installing missing air return ducts for four rooms, and passing the Final HVAC Inspection. In addition, Fernando provided an outstanding insulation contractor recommendation for the attic. We are so happy and pleased with West Coast Cold Air and cannot say enough good things about Fernando's reasonable prices, integrity, and quality of workmanship. He is a real professional who earned our respect, I will always highly recommend him first--he is a rare professional you can count on!"

"Provider came out to house and inspected HVAC system.  We agreed something needed to be done to fix the problem i was having with hot air blowing upstairs.  this was a recurring problem.  Provider outlined my options and recommended what he thought was best.  ultimately, we both agreed service should not be performed for the amount of money i was to spend for a new replacement part.  ending up being less expensive to be purchase an entirely new system that was less expensive than my current system.

"Prior to meeting Darren and Anthony, I found their company here on Angie's List but there were no reviews. I decided to take a chance, and I am glad that I did! Darren was very courteous and knowledgeable on the phone. The quote he provided me didn't change once they arrived. They arrived on time and answered all my questions. Prior to entering my home, they covered their shoes and went to work. They ensured that my furniture was protected and covered before they started. All of my vent covers were meticulously cleaned and look brand new and as dirty as they were, that was impressive. As Anthony cleaned all of the vents and my blower motor/fan, Darren began cleaning the ducts. Once the ducts were clean (huge noticeable difference) and covers back on, they swept and vacuumed the whole house. After the sweeping and vacuuming, my AC system was sanitized. As I sit here and type this, besides the new looking vent covers and the amazingly fresh smell, you would never know that Darren and Anthony were here. They are polite, knowledgeable and most importantly respectful, not only to their customer but to your home as well. There are many times I have done business with a company that only cares about up-selling or adding to their profit margins, I can assure this is not how this company does business. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Fresh Air Services if you need your AC system professionally cleaned and  sanitized. You will not be disappointed.

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