I’ve never owned a swamp cooler before…

And now that I’ve bought a ladder to get up to said roof to examine the swamp cooler I now see why shit is not turning on…

Unless you live in a very arid state, id consider doing a massive upgrade instead of much of a fix.

Thinking maybe an complete change out ?@stound

@AnthroKenji switch out to an ac unit. swamp coolers are notoriously bad [and high maintenance] in areas that have high humidity with their heat.

@stound Mmm okay I think I’ll give it some thought the humidity isn’t bad but some people have HVACs.

@AnthroKenji hvac will be more expensive to run, probably more to install, but almost certainly more effective, add value to the place, pull down your inside humidity, and might well cost less in long term service and damage it can do if it breaks.

@stound mmm you might be right I don’t like climbing on the roof to do repairs. Also water running through the house makes me nervous.
