A Typical Day Serving Our Communities
The life of an HVAC technician starts before the sun rises. At 6 AM, I’m already checking my tablet for the day’s scheduled service calls across the Chicago suburbs. With my service van stocked and ready to go, I head out to my first appointment in Bolingbrook while most people are just starting their morning commute.
Every day brings different challenges in the HVAC world:
• Emergency furnace repairs during winter cold snaps
• Routine maintenance checks in Skokie and Evanston
• New system installations in growing communities like Woodridge
• Air conditioning tune-ups before summer heat waves hit Park Ridge
The most rewarding part of working in climate control is helping families stay comfortable year-round. Whether I’m in Morton Grove diagnosing a failing heat exchanger or in Lincolnwood performing a seasonal maintenance check, each call is an opportunity to ensure someone’s home stays cozy and safe.
Between service calls, I’m constantly monitoring emergency requests that come in. When temperatures drop below freezing in Niles or soar into the 90s in Darien, we know our phones will be ringing with residents needing immediate assistance.
By day’s end, I’ve typically covered over 100 miles across Chicagoland, solved numerous HVAC issues, and helped multiple families restore comfort to their homes. It’s demanding work, but knowing that I’ve helped maintain safe and comfortable indoor environments makes it all worthwhile.
What Makes Each Day Different
• Meeting new customers across our service area
• Solving unique technical challenges
• Keeping up with evolving HVAC technology
• Adapting to Chicago’s ever-changing weather conditions
As I head back to headquarters, I ensure my van is restocked and ready for tomorrow’s adventures. In the HVAC world, no two days are ever the same, and that’s exactly what makes this career so engaging.
