A Day in the Life of a Tropical Heating & Cooling Technician Daniel, 06/24/2024 Rise and Shine: The Early Bird Gets the Cool Air As a technician at Tropical Heating & Cooling, my day starts bright and early. By 7 AM, I’m already on the road, ready to tackle the day’s challenges across the Niagara Falls region. Our company serves a wide area, including Grand Island, Lockport, and North Tonawanda, so every day brings new adventures and interesting HVAC systems to work on. Morning: Routine Maintenance in Amherst My first stop today is in Amherst, NY, for a routine maintenance check on a residential air conditioning unit. These preventive visits are crucial to ensure systems run efficiently and prevent unexpected breakdowns. I inspect the unit, clean filters, and check refrigerant levels, all while chatting with the homeowner about proper HVAC care. Midday: Emergency Repair in Williamsville Just as I finish up in Amherst, I receive an urgent call from our dispatch. A family in Williamsville is facing a complete AC breakdown on a sweltering summer day. I rush over, diagnosing the issue quickly and replacing a faulty compressor. The relief on the family’s faces when cool air starts flowing again is why I love this job. Afternoon: New Installation in West Seneca After a quick lunch break, I head to West Seneca for a new HVAC system installation. This is a more extensive job, requiring precision and teamwork. My colleague and I work efficiently to set up the new energy-efficient unit, explaining its features to the excited homeowners. Evening: Wrapping Up in Lewiston As the day winds down, I make one last stop in Lewiston for a heating system inspection. With winter not too far off, it’s crucial to ensure furnaces are in top shape. After completing the check and providing some maintenance tips to the client, I head back to the office.
