Rise and Shine: Starting the Day
As an HVAC technician at Air Comfort HVAC, my day typically starts early. I wake up at 6 AM, grab a quick breakfast, and head to our company headquarters in Fort Oglethorpe, GA. Our team gathers for a brief morning meeting to discuss the day’s schedule and any urgent calls that came in overnight.
On the Road: First Call of the Day
By 8 AM, I’m on the road to my first appointment in Ringgold, GA. A homeowner has reported that their air conditioner isn’t cooling properly. Upon arrival, I perform a thorough inspection of the system, checking for common issues such as:
- Refrigerant leaks
- Dirty air filters
- Faulty compressors
- Blocked condensate drains
In this case, I discover a refrigerant leak. After discussing the repair options with the homeowner, I proceed to fix the leak and recharge the system.
Midday: AC Service in Rocky Face
Around noon, I head to Rocky Face for a routine air conditioner service appointment. Regular maintenance is crucial for keeping AC units running efficiently. During this visit, I:
- Clean or replace air filters
- Check and adjust refrigerant levels
- Lubricate moving parts
- Inspect electrical connections
The homeowner is pleased with the service and asks about our HVAC installation options. I provide some information and schedule a follow-up consultation for a potential system upgrade.
Afternoon: Emergency AC Repair in Dalton
After lunch, I receive an urgent call about a completely non-functional air conditioner in Dalton, GA. Upon arrival, I quickly diagnose the issue as a failed capacitor. Fortunately, I have the necessary part in my truck, allowing me to complete the AC repair promptly.
Wrapping Up: Back to Base
As the day winds down, I return to our Fort Oglethorpe office to complete paperwork and restock my truck for the next day. Before heading home, I check the schedule for tomorrow and prepare for any anticipated challenges.
Working at Air Comfort HVAC is both rewarding and challenging. Every day brings new opportunities to help our neighbors stay comfortable in their homes, whether through routine maintenance, emergency repairs, or new HVAC installations. It’s a pleasure to serve the communities of Fort Oglethorpe, Ringgold, Rocky Face, and Dalton, keeping Georgia cool one home at a time.
