Early Morning – The First Call
My day at All Climate Systems begins before sunrise. As I pull into our parking lot at 6:30 AM, I already have my first emergency service call waiting. A family across town woke up to a freezing house, and their furnace isn’t responding.
Mid-Morning – Replacement Assessment
After resolving the morning emergency (a failed ignitor – a quick fix), I head to a scheduled appointment for a furnace replacement consultation. The homeowner’s unit is over 20 years old, and they’re smart to consider replacing it before it fails completely. I spend time explaining their options, focusing on energy efficiency ratings and long-term cost savings.
Afternoon – Installation Project
The bulk of my day involves overseeing a new heater installation. Our team carefully removes the old unit and prepares the space for the new system. What makes this job satisfying is knowing we’re providing reliable warmth while helping homeowners reduce their utility bills.
Key tasks during installation include:
- Ensuring proper ventilation
- Installing new ductwork connections
- Testing system efficiency
- Performing safety checks
Late Afternoon – Maintenance Calls
I wrap up my day with two preventive maintenance visits. These routine checks are crucial for catching potential issues before they become costly repairs. During each visit, I:
- Clean or replace filters
- Check electrical connections
- Inspect heat exchangers
- Test safety controls
Every day brings different challenges, but there’s nothing more rewarding than knowing our work keeps homes comfortable through the coldest months. Whether it’s an emergency repair or a planned installation, each job at All Climate Systems reminds me why I chose this career path.
