firstcoueswas80 Report post Posted Tuesday at 08:56 PM What service is there to do to a swamp? It's been a long time since I worked on one with my dad when I was a kid I remember all we did was check make sure the water pump and Float worked and change out the pads. I have a swamp in my shop now so I should probably pay attention to this. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rince the roof of really good. When you service a swamp cooler always clean the roof off good. And don't let the cooler leak on to the roof. One of the biggest roof repairs I do. Is leaks from swamp coolers. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A bit more than I want to wrestle with. When the weather is right they work good for the few months we get around here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
