A Day in the Life of an HVAC Technician at Air Tech Heating


Morning: Gearing Up for the Day

My day at Air Tech Heating begins bright and early at 7 AM. After grabbing a quick coffee, I head to the office to check my schedule and gather the necessary equipment for the day’s jobs. Today, I’m scheduled for a boiler installation in the morning and an AC service call in the afternoon.

Mid-Morning: Boiler Installation

By 8:30 AM, I’m at the client’s home, ready to start the boiler installation. This process typically involves:

  • Removing the old boiler
  • Preparing the area for the new unit
  • Installing the new boiler
  • Connecting all necessary pipes and wiring
  • Testing the system for proper functionality

It’s a complex job, but Air Tech Heating has trained us well, and I take pride in ensuring everything is done correctly and efficiently.

Lunch Break: Refueling and Regrouping

After completing the boiler installation, I take a quick lunch break to recharge before my afternoon appointment. I use this time to check in with the office and confirm the details of my next job.

Afternoon: AC Service Call

The afternoon brings me to a residential AC service call. The homeowner reports that their system isn’t cooling effectively. I begin by:

  1. Inspecting the outdoor unit
  2. Checking refrigerant levels
  3. Cleaning or replacing filters
  4. Examining the ductwork for any leaks

In this case, I discover a refrigerant leak, which I promptly repair. After topping up the refrigerant, I run a full system test to ensure everything is working optimally.

End of Day: Wrapping Up

As my workday comes to a close, I return to the Air Tech Heating office to file my service reports and prepare for the next day. It’s been a busy but satisfying day, knowing that I’ve helped two households improve their comfort and energy efficiency.

Working at Air Tech Heating is more than just a job – it’s about providing essential services that keep our community comfortable year-round. Whether it’s installing a new boiler or servicing an AC unit, every day brings new challenges and opportunities to help our clients.
