Rise and Shine: The Life of an HVAC Technician
As the sun peeks over the horizon in New Lenox, Illinois, I’m already up and preparing for another busy day at Magtek Mechanical. My name’s Mike, and I’ve been working as an HVAC technician here for the past five years. Let me take you through a typical day in my life.
6:30 AM: Morning Routine
I start my day with a strong cup of coffee and a quick check of my schedule. Today, I’ve got a mix of air conditioner repairs and an AC installation on the docket.
7:30 AM: First Call – AC Service in Joliet
My first stop is in Joliet for a routine AC service. The homeowner’s unit has been making strange noises, so I perform a thorough inspection, clean the filters, and lubricate the moving parts. It’s a quick fix, and the customer is relieved to have a quietly running AC again.
10:00 AM: Air Conditioning Installation in Frankfort
Next up is a new AC installation in Frankfort. This job takes a good chunk of the day as we remove the old unit and carefully install the new system. It’s hard work, but seeing the customer’s satisfaction when cool air starts flowing makes it all worthwhile.
2:30 PM: Emergency Repair in Mokena
After a quick lunch break, I receive an urgent call about a broken AC in Mokena. The summer heat is unforgiving, so I rush over to diagnose and repair the issue. Turns out it’s a faulty capacitor, which I replace swiftly.
4:30 PM: Final Service Call in Tinley Park
My last stop for the day is in Tinley Park for an HVAC system check-up. I ensure everything is running efficiently and advise the homeowner on some preventative maintenance tips.
6:00 PM: Wrap Up at Magtek Mechanical
I head back to the Magtek Mechanical office to file my reports and prepare for tomorrow. It’s been a long day, but knowing I’ve helped keep our community comfortable makes it all worthwhile.
Working at Magtek Mechanical is more than just a job – it’s about being there for our neighbors when they need us most. Whether it’s a scorching summer day or a freezing winter night, we’re always ready to keep New Lenox and the surrounding areas comfortable.
