A Day in the Life: HVAC Technician at Green Valley Cooling & Heating

Rise and Shine: 6:00 AM

My alarm goes off, and I’m up and ready to face another day as an HVAC technician at Green Valley Cooling & Heating. After a quick breakfast, I check my work phone for any urgent messages or emergency calls that might have come in overnight.

First Stop: Emergency AC Repair – 7:30 AM

I arrive at our first call of the day in Sahuarita, AZ. A family’s air conditioning unit stopped working in the middle of the night, and with temperatures rising, it’s crucial to get their system up and running. After diagnosing the issue, I replace a faulty capacitor and get their AC humming again.

Mid-Morning: Routine Maintenance – 10:00 AM

Next, I head to Vail, AZ, for a scheduled maintenance appointment. Regular check-ups are essential to keep HVAC systems running efficiently and prevent unexpected breakdowns. I clean the filters, check refrigerant levels, and ensure all components are functioning correctly.

Lunch Break: 12:30 PM

I take a quick lunch break in my service vehicle, reviewing my afternoon schedule and responding to any messages from the office.

Afternoon: AC Replacement Consultation – 1:30 PM

My next stop is in Green Valley, where I meet with a homeowner to discuss AC replacement options. Their current system is aging and inefficient, so I walk them through various energy-efficient models that would suit their needs and budget.

Late Afternoon: HVAC Installation – 3:30 PM

I join my colleagues at a new construction site in Corona de Tucson, AZ. We’re installing a complete HVAC system in a newly built home. It’s a big job, but working as a team, we make significant progress before calling it a day.

Evening: On-Call Duty – 6:00 PM

Although my regular shift is over, I’m on-call for emergency air conditioning service. Around 8:00 PM, I receive a call from a distressed customer in Tubac, AZ. Their AC has stopped working, and with overnight temperatures still high, it’s important to address the issue promptly.

End of Day: 10:00 PM

After successfully resolving the emergency in Tubac, I head home, feeling satisfied with another day of helping our community stay cool and comfortable. As I prepare for bed, I know that tomorrow will bring new challenges and opportunities to serve our valued customers at Green Valley Cooling & Heating.
