4:30 AM – The Day Begins
The life of an HVAC technician starts well before the sun rises, especially during the winter months in West Virginia. As I grab my first cup of coffee, my phone lights up with an emergency call from a family in Clarksburg dealing with a failed furnace on one of the coldest mornings of the year.
6:00 AM – First Service Call
After loading up my service van with the essential tools and parts, I arrive at the customer’s home. The familiar symptoms of a malfunctioning blower motor greet me. Years of experience have taught me to always check the simplest solutions first:
• Thermostat settings
• Circuit breakers
• Air filters
• Ignition system
Mid-Morning Rush
By 10 AM, I’ve already completed two more service calls in Bridgeport. Winter in West Virginia means staying busy with:
• Furnace inspections
• Heat pump maintenance
• Emergency repairs
• System diagnostics
Afternoon Schedule
The afternoon takes me through Buckhannon and Jane Lew, performing scheduled maintenance checks. These preventive services are crucial for keeping heating systems running efficiently throughout the harsh winter months.
Evening Wind-Down
As the day wraps up in Fairmont, I complete my service reports and prepare the van for tomorrow. Every day brings new challenges and opportunities to help our community stay warm and comfortable during the cold season.
Remember, regular maintenance is key to preventing those early morning emergency calls. Schedule your heating system check-up before the next cold snap hits!
