Rise and Shine: The Life of an HVAC Technician
As the sun rises over Orlando, my day as an HVAC technician at Frank Gay Commercial Services, LLC begins. The Florida heat is already starting to build, reminding me of the importance of our work in keeping homes and businesses comfortable.
6:00 AM: I arrive at our headquarters in Winter Park, FL, ready to tackle the day’s challenges. After a quick team meeting, I load up my service van with the necessary tools and parts.
7:30 AM: My first call takes me to a commercial building in Altamonte Springs. The client reported their air conditioning system wasn’t cooling efficiently. After a thorough inspection, I discover a refrigerant leak and proceed with the necessary repairs.
Midday Hustle
11:00 AM: I head to a residential property in Orlando for a routine maintenance check. Regular servicing is crucial for optimal HVAC performance, especially during our scorching summers.
1:00 PM: Lunch break! I grab a quick bite and hydrate, preparing for the afternoon ahead.
2:00 PM: Back on the road, this time to a small business in Winter Park experiencing heating issues. Despite the warm weather, some places still need their heating systems in top shape.
Wrapping Up the Day
5:00 PM: My final call of the day is an emergency AC repair in downtown Orlando. A restaurant’s cooling system has failed, and we need to get it running before the dinner rush.
7:30 PM: With all calls completed, I head back to headquarters to file my reports and restock my van for tomorrow.
