Swamp Cooler Repair and Service in Las Vegas

Evaporative coolers are simple machines, but Las Vegas heat and hard water wear them out fast. We repair pumps, pads, motors and water lines so your cooler blows cold again.

Why swamp coolers

Low-Cost Cooling for Dry Desert Air

Swamp coolers cool by evaporating water, which works best in dry air like most of a Las Vegas summer. They use far less electricity than refrigerated AC.

Lower power bills

An evaporative cooler uses a fraction of the electricity of a central AC system.

Fresh airflow

Coolers bring in outside air instead of recirculating the same indoor air.

Great for garages

Ideal for garages, workshops and patios that central AC does not reach.

Simple to fix

Most problems come down to a few parts that are quick to replace.

Swamp cooler FAQ

Swamp Cooler Questions

Why is my swamp cooler blowing warm air?

Usually the pads are not getting wet enough because of a failed pump, clogged distribution lines or a stuck float valve. Worn or scaled-up pads also reduce cooling.

How often should swamp cooler pads be replaced?

In Las Vegas, most pads need replacing every season because hard water leaves heavy mineral deposits.

Do swamp coolers work during monsoon season?

They lose efficiency when humidity rises in late summer. Running the cooler with more airflow and good ventilation helps on humid days.

Should I winterize my swamp cooler?

Yes. Draining it and shutting off the water line prevents freeze damage on cold nights and keeps the unit cleaner until spring.

Can you replace a swamp cooler with AC?

Yes. If your cooler is near the end of its life, we can quote a central AC or ductless mini-split as an alternative.
