"We had this system installed by Kettle Moraine in May 2018. This was our first annual inspection of the furnace, as we had the air conditioning checked out this May. Kyle called ahead of his scheduled arrival to confirm he would be on time. He arrived on time, put his booties on to protect our floors, and got right to work. He did a real nice job of checking everything out, and discovered a water leak that was allowing a small amount of moisture/liquid to get on top of the heat exchanger, in three different places, which would over time create significant problems both with the upper and lower heat exchangers. He exlained very clearly, even showing me what was wrong , and what he suspected was causing the leak. He immediately contacted Lennox, and ordered the replacement parts, from our basement. He estimated the parts would be in the shop and ready for installation in about a week. While I'm not thrilled with the quality of the Lennox furnace, leaking and need major parts being replaced within a couple of years, their 10 year parts and labor warranty will cover everything, so that's great."

"Bob and his team were very professional. They arrived at my residence on time and spent more time than expected due to a need to replace the existing PVC venting pipe to a larger diameter. Overall I am very happy with the service performed by Bob's team. I definitely recommend his team to whoever needs heating and cooling service."

"Matt came out in the beginning of the week to inspect our AC. Before we called we heard loud noises when the AC outside came on and that is why we called. Matt inspected our system and explained that our compressor was leaking freon and that it was down 2 lbs. Being that this AC was installed back in 2009 it was using R22 which is outlawed by the government. So in order to get this fixed we would have had to change the compressor which would have cost us around 600-1000. The other bigger issue was that when the builder installed our AC it was not sized for our home. We were very blessed that we were able to use it for 9 years before it went out. We were overworking the unit being that it was trying to cool a 1550 sq ft. home and it was only a 1.5 ton unit. So Matt proposed replacing our unit. We negotiated a great price and we scheduled them to come out on Friday May 24th. Up till now, Matt was on time, very professional and was careful on making sure his shoes were covered before walking in our home. Matt was also knowledgeable and was easy to understand. At the time my parents were visiting and he was very helpful and explained the situation to my parents. They really appreciated that. Now on Friday, Matt and Dan came out and again showing great care for our home and our time. They installed our system quickly and efficiently. After they completed the work, we noticed a huge difference with our system. The house was cooled in no time. We were very happy that we finally had a system that was appropriately sized for our home reducing our cooling time by almost half. I am so happy that we called Matt to do this work. We never felt that we were taken advantaged or that we didn't have control of all the decisions that needed to be made. I recommend Matt and his team."

"Nicely done. We have two Carrier furnaces in our old house. I phoned Air Solutions for an annual inspection/clean on both units and they had a man available the same day. Very nice tech, good communication, no issues, and they let us use the Angie's coupon on both units. Will definitely hire again!"

"I called for service and appointment was for the next day. Service person showed up on time. The problem was found (bad micro switch) and a zone valve motor/actuator was replaced. The whole process was completed in 30 minutes. They give senior citizens a discount. Yea! I would use them again for other problems or maintenance."

"Last year on our way up to our annual 4th of July trip to the Chippewa Flowage, my sister who was house sitting for us called and said the air conditioning was out. I pulled over at the Menard's in Wausau to get a battery for the boat and googled heating and air-conditioning repair in Milwaukee. I called a big name Co. first who wanted me to commit to a $295 house call so I called A-1 and Mike said he could get there by the end of the day to take a look for $95. A couple hours later he called back and said it was the control panel. He could get a new one and replace for about $300 or so or I could get one on Amazon and replace myself for about $100. Long story short, I convinced my sister to turn on all the fans and gut it out until I got back the following weekend. I ordered a new panel on Amazon and was there when I got home. I had a few questions as I was replacing it and Mike could not have been more helpful in guiding me through it. 45 min. later we had cold air and the wife and cats and dogs could not have been happier. Total cost was $107 for the new panel and $95 for the house call and diagnosing the problem on a Saturday evening. Could not have made a better decision than to call A-1. Thanks again Mike. Fast-forward to 2 weeks ago. I woke up on a Saturday morning to my air running all night and would not get below 77 deg. I called Mike and told him the fan outside was running but not cooling the house. He said he had some calls lined up already but would try getting there later in the afternoon. He showed up around 3 or so and diagnosed the problem as a bad capacitor. He didn't have any dual capacitors with him but had a few more calls to take care of and thought he could get a hold of one and promised to still have it fixed the same day. At around 7 that night it was about 83 in the house and Mike showed up with the capacitor and had it fixed within a half hour. Total cost $120 for 2 trips on a Saturday including parts and labor. If you need any big ticket items or small repairs done, you CANNOT go wrong by calling these guys. My house is about 20 yrs. old and pretty sure the air and furnace will need replacing in the near future. As I learned from these 2 experiences you can't go wrong with A-1 and I guarantee I'll be calling them when replacements are needed. Thanks again Mike for your help. Tony"

"Mr. Ferrell first connected his computer to my computer via internet and worked for quite a few hours trying to determine what exactly was wrong. The next day he continued working from his computer for several hours. He determined he would have to have my desktop tower to complete the repair. He and my son met in Huntsville to exchange the tower. He then cleaned up a lot of what was wrong and reloaded Windows 10. He deleted the D: drive which had way too much memory allotted to it. The tower was returned and I plugged it all back together and it is working better than it did when I first purchased it. I would use him again and I recommend him highly to anyone needing computer updating and/or repair. His work is warrantied and he is very personable, knowledgeable, and helpful."

"The serviceman checked the furnace and the vents and air cleaner. He explained the situation to me. Said the current furnace did not need replacement at this time. When it does need aservice or replacement they are the first people I will contact."

"Sparky was great.  He assessed the problems and fixed all of them in an efficient manner.  He really knows his stuff.  My track lighting was totally screwed up - he had to get up in the attic and run new wires and install a new switch.  He knocked it out of the park.  6 months later, all things that he worked on are working great.  Highly recommend his services."

FAQs for swamp cooler installation and replacement projects in Waterford, WI

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.
