Rise and Shine: The Early Start
As an HVAC technician at Aqua Plumbing & Air, my day begins bright and early. By 6:30 AM, I’m already checking my schedule and loading up the truck with the necessary tools and equipment. Today’s agenda includes an air conditioning installation in Bradenton and a couple of AC repair calls in Sarasota.
First Stop: AC Installation in Bradenton
My first appointment is at 8:00 AM in Bradenton. The Florida heat is already picking up as I arrive at the client’s home. Today’s task is to install a brand new, energy-efficient air conditioning system. Here’s what the process typically involves:
- Removing the old unit
- Installing the new outdoor condenser
- Setting up the indoor air handler
- Connecting refrigerant lines
- Testing the system for optimal performance
By noon, the new AC is humming along nicely, and the homeowner is thrilled with the improved cooling.
Lunch Break and Travel
After a quick lunch, I’m on the road again, heading to Sarasota for some AC repair calls. The drive gives me a chance to enjoy the beautiful Florida scenery and prepare mentally for the next tasks.
Afternoon: AC Repairs in Sarasota
My first repair call is for a system that’s not cooling properly. After a thorough inspection, I discover a refrigerant leak. I explain the situation to the homeowner, repair the leak, and recharge the system. The cool air flowing again brings a smile to the client’s face.
The second call turns out to be a simple fix – a clogged air filter causing the system to work overtime. I replace the filter and educate the homeowner on the importance of regular maintenance.
Wrapping Up the Day
As the sun begins to set, I finish up my last call and head back to the Aqua Plumbing & Air office. I update the day’s work orders, restock my truck for tomorrow, and touch base with my supervisor about the day’s activities.
Working as an HVAC technician for Aqua Plumbing & Air is always rewarding. Whether it’s installing new systems or repairing existing ones, knowing that I’m helping keep the residents of Sarasota, Bradenton, and the surrounding areas comfortable makes every day worthwhile.
