Rise and Shine: The Life of an HVAC Technician
As the sun peeks over the horizon, I’m already up and preparing for another busy day at Richard’s Fuel & Heating. My name’s Mike, and I’ve been working as an HVAC technician here for the past five years. Today’s schedule is packed with calls across Easthampton, Florence, and Leeds, MA.
6:30 AM: Getting Ready
I start my day by checking the company van, ensuring all tools and parts are accounted for. Our team prides itself on being prepared for any HVAC challenge that comes our way.
8:00 AM: First Call in Easthampton
My first stop is at a residential property in Easthampton. The homeowner reported their AC unit making strange noises. After a thorough inspection, I discover a loose fan belt. A quick replacement later, and the AC is purring like a kitten.
10:30 AM: Commercial Job in Florence
Next up, I head to Florence for a scheduled maintenance check at a local business. Regular upkeep is crucial for keeping commercial HVAC systems running efficiently. I perform a full system check, clean the filters, and discuss energy-saving tips with the business owner.
1:00 PM: Lunch Break
I grab a quick lunch at a local deli. It’s a chance to recharge and prepare for the afternoon ahead.
2:00 PM: Emergency Call in Leeds
An urgent call comes in from Leeds – a family’s AC has completely stopped working on one of the hottest days of the year. I rush over and diagnose the problem as a faulty compressor. After explaining the situation to the homeowners, I get to work on the AC repair.
5:00 PM: Wrapping Up
As the day winds down, I head back to the office to file my reports and restock the van for tomorrow. It’s been a busy day, but knowing I’ve helped keep my community comfortable makes it all worthwhile.
Working for Richard’s Fuel & Heating isn’t just a job – it’s a commitment to ensuring our neighbors in Easthampton, Florence, and Leeds stay cool in summer and warm in winter. Whether it’s AC repair, heating system installations, or routine maintenance, we’re always ready to help.
