Rise and Shine: Starting the Day Right
As a technician at Reliable Heating & Cooling, my day begins early. I’m up at 6 AM, ready to tackle the challenges of keeping homes and businesses comfortable in O’Fallon, MO, and the surrounding areas.
Morning Briefing: Mapping Out the Day
7:30 AM: I arrive at our office in Saint Peters, MO. We start with a team meeting to discuss the day’s schedule and any urgent service calls. Today, I’m assigned to:
- Perform an AC tune-up in O’Fallon
- Install a new HVAC system in Lake Saint Louis
- Diagnose a faulty air conditioner in Saint Peters
On the Road: First Stop – O’Fallon
9:00 AM: I arrive at my first appointment in O’Fallon. The homeowner’s AC needs a routine check-up. I clean the coils, check refrigerant levels, and ensure all components are functioning correctly. It’s satisfying to know I’m helping maintain the system’s efficiency and prolonging its lifespan.
Midday Installation: Lake Saint Louis
11:30 AM: I head to Lake Saint Louis for the HVAC installation. This is a bigger job, requiring precision and attention to detail. Working with a colleague, we remove the old system and carefully install the new one, ensuring everything is properly connected and calibrated.
Afternoon Troubleshooting: Saint Peters
3:00 PM: My final stop is in Saint Peters. The homeowner reports their AC isn’t cooling effectively. After a thorough inspection, I discover a refrigerant leak. I explain the issue to the customer and, with their approval, repair the leak and recharge the system.
Wrapping Up: Back to Base
5:30 PM: I return to our office to file my service reports and restock my truck for tomorrow. It’s been a busy day, but knowing I’ve helped keep our community comfortable makes it all worthwhile.
Working for Reliable Heating & Cooling isn’t just a job; it’s about being there for our neighbors when they need us most. Whether it’s battling the summer heat in O’Fallon or ensuring cozy winters in Lake Saint Louis, we’re always ready to help.
