A friend of mine just had his swamp cooler go out in his house. He called around to have a guy come in and get things fixed so the summer heat didn't cook the family. He said it was easy to find someone who could work on A/C units but finding someone who could respond quickly to an outed swamp cooler was a big challenge. The guy he finally found was a week out and gave no bid over the phone. So, it could end up being quite a head ache.
Here are some things to do to maintain a cooler to prolong its life:

- http://www.jbmailroom.com/swamper/

It probably pays to seek out a few companies ahead of time for items like this so that when it does eventually die you have a resource to go to quickly.
