A Day of Keeping Orlando Cool – Life as an HVAC Tech
Morning Briefing – 6:30 AM
The day starts early at Blue Air Heating and Cooling, where we gather for our morning briefing. With the forecast showing 92 degrees by midday, we know it’s going to be another busy one in Central Florida.
First Call – Winter Park
My first service call takes me to a residential neighborhood in Winter Park. A family’s AC unit started making unusual noises overnight. After a thorough inspection, I discover their condensate line is clogged – a common issue in Florida’s humid climate.
Midday Installation – Maitland
By 10:30 AM, I’m heading to Maitland for a complete system installation. The homeowners decided to upgrade their aging unit before the peak summer season. Smart move. Installing new systems is one of the most rewarding parts of my job – nothing beats seeing a customer’s relief when that first blast of cool air hits.
Afternoon Service Calls
After lunch, my schedule includes:
• Routine maintenance in Goldenrod
• Filter replacement in downtown Orlando
• Emergency repair for a commercial client
End of Day – 5:00 PM
Before heading home, I complete my service reports and prep for tomorrow. Working in HVAC means every day is different, and that’s what I love about it. From helping elderly residents in Winter Park stay comfortable to ensuring businesses in Orlando maintain optimal temperatures, our work makes a real difference in people’s lives.
Key Takeaways from Today:
• Completed 1 full installation
• Performed 3 maintenance visits
• Resolved 2 emergency calls
• Covered over 60 miles across greater Orlando
Being part of the Blue Air team means staying busy year-round in Florida’s climate, but there’s nothing more satisfying than knowing you’ve helped keep your community comfortable, no matter what the weather brings.
