Repair or replace? We will give you a straight answer.
Most coolers can be repaired, and we will always tell you when a repair makes more sense. But a unit that is 15 to 20 years old with a cracked tank, a failing motor and worn pads is often better replaced. New models are quieter, cool better and use less water.
We measure your home, check the condition of your ducts and roof mount, and recommend a correctly sized unit. Upgrades can include modern wall controls, auto-drain systems and pads that last longer in hard water.
Consider replacement if:
- Your cooler is over 15 years old
- The tank or cabinet is cracked or corroded
- Repair costs are adding up each summer
- It no longer cools the whole home
- Parts for your model are hard to find
- You want quieter operation and smarter controls

Upgrades that solve common complaints
How your evaporative cooler works
Evaporative cooling uses water and fresh outside air instead of refrigerant. Understanding the four main parts makes it easy to see why a single failed component stops the whole system cooling.
Tank & pump
Water collects in the tank and the pump lifts it to the top of the pads.
Cooling pads
Water soaks the pads. As hot air passes through, evaporation cools it by up to 10–15°C.
Fan & motor
The fan draws air through the wet pads and pushes it down into the ducts.
Ducts & outlets
Ducts carry the cool air to each room. Open a window or door so warm air can escape.
Simple, transparent and on time

System Upgrades & Replacement: common questions
How long does an evaporative cooler last?
With regular servicing, 15 to 20 years. Units that miss servicing or run on hard water often need replacing sooner.
Can my existing ducts be reused?
Often, yes. We check the condition and layout of your ducting during the assessment. If it is sound, reusing it keeps the cost down.
How long does replacement take?
A like-for-like replacement is usually completed in one day. Jobs needing new ducting or roof work may take longer and are scheduled in advance.
Do you remove the old cooler?
Yes. Removal and disposal of your old unit is included in our replacement quotes.
Is the quote free?
Yes. Replacement and upgrade assessments are free, and you receive a written quote with no obligation.
