A Day in the Life of an HVAC Technician at Comfort Plus Services

Posted on 2024-06-11

Morning Routine

My day starts early, around 7 a.m., as I prepare for the day’s HVAC service calls. I check my schedule, gather the necessary tools and parts, and head out to the first job site. The morning commute is usually smooth, but you never know when traffic might delay your arrival.

First Service Call

  1. The first call of the day is an air conditioning installation in Salisbury, MD. The homeowners are replacing their old, inefficient unit with a new, high-efficiency system.
  2. I arrive at the site, introduce myself, and discuss the project with the homeowners. After inspecting the existing setup, I start the removal process, carefully disconnecting the old unit and preparing the area for the new installation.
  3. With the help of my assistant, we meticulously follow the manufacturer’s instructions, ensuring a proper HVAC installation. We take pride in our work, double-checking every connection and setting before firing up the new system.

Lunchtime

After a successful installation, it’s time for a well-deserved lunch break. I often grab a quick bite at a local diner or pack a sandwich from home. It’s a chance to recharge and prepare for the afternoon calls.

Afternoon Service Calls

  • The next stop is in Federalsburg, MD, where a customer is experiencing issues with their air conditioning system. I diagnose the problem, which turns out to be a faulty compressor, and provide the homeowner with a detailed estimate for the repair.
  • In Georgetown, DE, I perform routine maintenance on a commercial ductless HVAC system. These systems are becoming increasingly popular, and it’s essential to keep them running efficiently.
  • The final call of the day is an AC repair in Easton, MD. The customer reported strange noises coming from their outdoor unit. After a thorough inspection, I identify a loose fan blade and secure it, restoring the system to proper working condition.

End of the Day

As the sun sets, I wrap up the last service call and head back to the office. I complete any necessary paperwork, restock my van with supplies, and prepare for the next day’s adventures in the world of HVAC services.
