"I purchased a Generac standby generator from AirSouth in July of 2022. I was assured that this standby generator would power my home in the invent of a power outage. When the generator was installed, there was a problem with this brand-new generator, and they had to order a new main board because the generator was not charging. I was concerned about this, but the generator had a five-year warranty, and they explain sometime equipment have bad parts. AirSouth assure me that they would do regular maintenance to make sure this generator was performing as expected. WHICH THEY DID NOT DO! The first time we experienced a power outage was on Friday 06/16/23 the generator came on for about one and half hours and shut off. I called AirSouth and they sent a technician out that spent about 25 minutes out here and told my husband that the main board had went out and they would have to order one and it would not be in until Tuesday 06/20/23. I paid 13,822 for a backup generator that did not work the first time it was needed. When I called AirSouth to ask to speak to a manager or someone in charge I was told they were on another call and was not able to take my call. I than explained to Denise that I would not allow any repairs to this generator, and I needed them to replace it because obviously there is a defect with this generator if the generator requires three main boards in less than a year. She explained to me that they would only be able to repair this unit not replace it. AirSouth showed no concern for me or my family after I had paid them for this generator. I only make about 40,000 a year so this was a huge investment for me. They were total unconcerned that this was a brand new system that had never been use. They seem to think it was ok that I would have to wait four days during a power outage to use a generator that I paid them to install and had never had cause to use. Right now, I am feeling as through I have been scammed because I made the decision to invest this large amount of money for the security of my family and when the power went out, we were in the same position as everyone else, no power. My husband had to go and pay $400 for a portable generator to get us through the weekend. Bad business!! This was the perfect opportunity for the advertisement of not only Generac but also AirSouth due to the fact everyone in the area was hot and frustrated. My family, friends and I'm sure my neighbors were aware that I had recently had the Generac installed, and because AirSouth do the huge advertisement on their vehicles they were aware of who did the install. Epic failure, because when the power went out, everyone witness the fact that after paying for this generator I was still in the same situation as everyone else, NO POWER! I should have just stayed with the portable generator. It would have be much, much cheaper! A week later and they are still making excuses."

Swamp cooler installations and replacements FAQs
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.
