A Day in the Trenches: Life as a Duke’s HVAC Technician

Rise and Shine: The Early Bird Gets the Cool Air

As a technician at Duke’s Air Conditioning and Heating, my day starts bright and early. By 6:30 AM, I’m already checking my schedule and loading up the van with tools and parts. Our commitment to providing dependable HVAC repair and service means we’re always prepared for whatever the day might bring.

Morning: Tackling the Heat

My first call is usually around 8 AM. Today, it’s a residential emergency – a family’s AC unit decided to quit right in the middle of a heatwave. As I arrive, I’m greeted by grateful homeowners and their panting dog. Time to put my diagnostic skills to work!

Midday: Commercial Chaos

After resolving the morning’s crisis, it’s off to a scheduled maintenance at a local office building. Regular upkeep is crucial for:

• Preventing unexpected breakdowns
• Improving energy efficiency
• Extending the lifespan of HVAC systems

Lunch is often a quick sandwich between calls. Today, I’m lucky enough to grab a bite with a fellow Duke’s technician. We swap stories and tips, always looking to improve our craft.

Afternoon: Heating Up the Service

The afternoon brings a mix of calls – from a restaurant with a malfunctioning freezer to a senior citizen whose heater is acting up (yes, even in summer, we get heating calls!). Each job presents its own unique challenges, but that’s what keeps the work interesting.

Evening: Wrapping Up and Looking Ahead

As the day winds down, I complete my paperwork and ensure my van is restocked for tomorrow. Before heading home, I check in with dispatch about any after-hours emergencies. At Duke’s, we pride ourselves on being available when our customers need us most.

It’s a long day, but a satisfying one. Knowing that I’ve helped keep homes and businesses comfortable makes it all worthwhile. Tomorrow, I’ll do it all again – because at Duke’s Air Conditioning and Heating, dependable service isn’t just a slogan, it’s our way of life.
