Morning Brief – 7:00 AM
The day begins early at Katham Industries, as winter demands our full attention. With my heating service truck stocked and ready, I review the day’s schedule while enjoying my morning coffee.
First Call – 8:30 AM
My first stop takes me to Englewood, where a family’s furnace decided to quit during the night. These emergency calls are common during cold snaps, and I make it a priority to restore warmth to homes as quickly as possible.
Mid-Morning – 10:30 AM
Heading to Bergenfield for a scheduled furnace maintenance appointment. Regular maintenance is crucial, and I take time to explain to homeowners the importance of annual service checks.
Lunch Break – 12:30 PM
A quick stop in Leonia for lunch, then it’s off to handle a heater installation in Haworth. These installations typically take several hours, but ensuring proper setup means fewer problems down the road.
Afternoon Calls – 3:00 PM
Key tasks during my afternoon rounds include:
– Performing preventive maintenance
– Replacing worn furnace filters
– Checking carbon monoxide detectors
– Calibrating thermostats
Final Service – 5:30 PM
The day wraps up in River Edge with a routine furnace inspection. After ensuring everything’s running smoothly, I complete my service reports and prepare for tomorrow’s challenges.
What makes this job rewarding is knowing that every repair and installation helps keep our Bergen County neighbors warm and safe during the cold winter months. It’s not just about fixing equipment – it’s about providing comfort and peace of mind to our community.
Remember, regular maintenance is the key to preventing those midnight emergency calls. Stay warm, Bergen County!
