I'm in Tucson... How can I switch my home's evaporative cooler to air conditioning?


Is it as "simple" as removing all of the evap's hardware and then having an a/c unit installed? Can you use the existing ducting or must you update it too? With some general knowledge of home electricity and wiring is this something I may be able to do myself? Thanks for answering!

An evaporitive cooler or "swampy" as we call them cannot be turned into an a/c unit. Typically you can duct a package a/c unit into the swampy's duct system but since swampies don't have a return duct that would need to be run into the house. It is not really a job for the DIYer as duct, electrical and control wiring would need added.
