Early Morning: Getting Ready for Service Calls
My day at Four Suns Heating & Cooling starts before sunrise. I arrive at our headquarters at 6:30 AM, where I review the day’s service schedule and ensure my truck is fully stocked with essential parts and tools.
Morning: First Service Calls
By 7:30 AM, I’m heading to my first appointment in Naperville. Today’s first call involves a routine maintenance check on a central air system. These preventive services are crucial for:
• Extending equipment life
• Improving energy efficiency
• Preventing unexpected breakdowns
• Maintaining indoor air quality
Midday: Emergency Repairs
Around noon, I receive an urgent call from our dispatch about a furnace malfunction in Plainfield. Winter weather means quick response times are essential. After diagnosing the issue, I find a failed ignitor – a common but critical problem that requires immediate attention.
Afternoon: System Installation
The late afternoon takes me to Wheaton for a collaborative effort with my team members, where we’re installing a new HVAC system. This requires careful coordination and precise attention to detail to ensure everything meets our quality standards.
Evening: Wrapping Up
Before heading home, I complete my service reports, update customer files, and prepare for tomorrow’s schedule. Working in Warrenville and the surrounding communities has taught me that every day brings unique challenges and opportunities to help our neighbors stay comfortable year-round.
In this field, continuous learning is essential as technology evolves and new systems emerge. It’s satisfying knowing that each day, we help maintain comfortable environments for families and businesses throughout our service area.
