"Helpful meets Helpful-Unique Indoor Comfort is now Ace Hardware Home Services, a fourth-generation heating, cooling, plumbing and electrical service company based in King of Prussia, PA. We are a customer service company that happens to excel in heating, air conditioning, plumbing and electrical home services. We have a unique reputation for superior service and quality craftsmanship --- but don't take our word for it --- Experience the Unique service firsthand." Providing HVAC service and repair, system replacement, and air conditioning solutions for older homes. Residential plumbing service, repair, emergency service, and water heaters. Electrical emergency service, repair, home upgrades, generators and EV Chargers.

"Jeff and his team did and excellent job with the installation of two Daikin HVAC units. I had many questions about the units and install and they were quick and thorough in responding. The price and warranty were competitive with high end brands. The crew was courteous and professional during the two day install. They were the only company that included replacement of the coolant lines, rather than just flushing the old ones. So far the Daikin variable speed AC units are exceptionally quiet and the house is very comfortable. Would recommend Ace Home Services and Unique Comfort without reservation."

About Us- OUR MISSION At Mattioni Plumbing, Heating & Cooling, our mission is to groom the next generation of technicians by honoring our values of 5-Star customer service and operational excellence. OUR STORY For over seventy years, Mattioni Plumbing, Heating & Cooling, Inc.'s dedicated employees have proudly served the Chester County, Pennsylvania area with their knowledgeable, courteous, and professional service. A.F. Mattioni & Sons Plumbing & Heating was founded on the Mattioni family farm along the (back then) very rural Route 113 outside of Downingtown, PA in 1948. The original barn which housed the company still stands! However, a newer, larger building on the family's property is the current home for the third generation of Mattioni’s to run the service-oriented business, but their commitment to quality has not changed. OUR PROMISE Our promise to you is to continue to grow and modernize so that we can provide you with the best products and services. We will continue to stick to our roots of caring deeply for both our customers and our employees. We promise to live this every day and to continue this legacy.

"Overestimated the time to complete an 9 hr job by scheduling a 16 hr window (2 guys x 8 hrs) and charged for 16 hrs regardless. I'd imagine they did the same for the materials, 60 feet of duct needed but they quoted 200. Got the job done, but probably twice the price of what it should have been."

"though I appreciate the emergency Saturday service call (cost 169.00), I thought the additional charge of 303.00 (450.00) for a diagnostic check and repair ( no parts necessary - just less than a hour of manpower) was a bit exorbitant. perhaps I failed to realize that heating/ac personnel are paid on the equivalent scale as neurosurgeons."

2020 Proud Super Service Award winning company on Angie's List! With over 30 years of combined professional HVAC experience at ECC our comfort team of professionals are there to provide residential & commercial quality service & installation. We are your "Elite Fujitsu Ductless HVAC installers" and we offer our customers "peace of mind" with low-cost service plans that will prevent premature system failure, lower utility costs, optimize system performance & help provide healthier air quality for you & your family! Contact us today, we look forward to servicing you soon!

"East Coast comfort did the most horrible thing to us, and they have treated us with utter contempt. We have been with East Coast Comfort since they began when Ed McCollum and Anthony Mongeluzi started the company in 2006. Both Ed and Anthony were to our home in the early years of their business, performing maintenance and repairs, and one of them was here when they installed our current unit. We gave them a favorable review on Angie’s List, and we have never had any complaints about them in almost 20 years, until Lisa Hawthorne. We schedule routing maintenance, so we do not have equipment failures and outages. We have repeatedly been asked by Ms. Hawthorne of East Coast Comfort to reschedule our maintenance appointments, and we have always acquiesced. This occurred again a few weeks ago, and we rescheduled for last week. Ms. Hawthorne again called the day before our scheduled maintenance appointment last week, asked again to change the appointment because of the volume of emergency calls they were receiving, and we agreed as long as Ms. Hawthorne promised we would be given priority scheduling if our system went down. The next day, our air conditioning failed, and I contacted Ms. Hawthorne. A technician came to our home on the afternoon of the next day, but he said parts had to be ordered, and it could be days before they would arrive. I have emails supporting that we requested Ms. Hawthorne to order the needed parts, and she emailed back that the parts would be $1500.00 and labor $500.00. Though we made it clear from our emails that we wanted to get the system repaired as quickly as possible, she did not order the parts and would not grant us priority scheduling. When we learned of this betrayal, we contacted William Henderson Heating, Cooling, Plumbing, and Electrical Services. They worked us into their schedule for same-day service. I have an email exchange that proves how disdainful Ms. Hawthorne was to longtime customers of East Coast Comfort, both of us senior citizens, and one with a cardiac condition. A request we made to Ms. Hawthorne to speak with Mr. McCollum or Mr. Mongeluzi was ignored. In other words, other people had their systems repaired because of our kindness, so we can swelter in the heat and humidity. I consider their behavior toward us to be elder abuse. Good riddance East Coast Comfort, we are now receiving our comfort from William Henderson."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Valley Forge, PA

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.
