Yes, we offer installation services for central air conditioning systems if you’re considering an upgrade.
With proper maintenance, swamp coolers can last 10 to 15 years.
The temperature of the air coming out of the equipment depends on the temperature and humidity of the air going in. Also, the constant movement of the air that is created by the blower makes the air released feel 4 to 6-degrees cooler than the actual temperature.
Here are a few simple steps you should follow to maintain the quality of your air cooler:
Before summer:
• Disconnect your unit from the power
• Remove all the external weatherproof covers
• Remove the filter pads and thoroughly clean them with a hose. If necessary, replace with new filters
• Close all drains and fill your unit with clean water
• Use biocide to disinfect your unit. Avoid chlorine-based household bleach and other substances that promote the growth of harmful organisms.
At the end of summer:
• Disconnect your unit from the electrical power
• Take the time to loosen any slime and sediment with a brush
• Drain all the water from the tank and pipes
• Use a clean cloth soaked in chlorine-based household bleach to clean the tank. Pump and then flush it with fresh water.
• Remove the filter pads and the hose and allow it to dry
• Dry all the internal components and leave the drains open
• If necessary, fit the covers on all exposed units to prevent damage
Swamp coolers, also known as evaporative coolers, should be serviced annually or bi-annually by a professional to ensure they are operating properly and to detect problems early. The frequency of service depends on the cooler's usage and care.
Replace water pads at the beginning of each cooling season. And check them every month the unit is in use. If they become dirty, replace them. The cleaner the pads, the safer and more energy-efficient the cooler.
