A Day in the Life of an Energy Services HVAC Technician

Rise and Shine: The Early Bird Gets the Warm

As a dedicated HVAC technician at Energy Services, my day starts bright and early. I’m up at 5:30 AM, ready to tackle the heating challenges that await me in the suburbs of Chicago. After a quick breakfast and a strong cup of coffee, I’m out the door by 6:15 AM, my service van fully stocked with tools and parts.

First Call: Furnace Repair in Naperville

My first appointment is in Naperville, IL. A family woke up to a chilly house, and their furnace isn’t producing heat. Upon arrival, I diagnose the issue: a faulty ignitor. Within an hour, I’ve replaced the part, and warm air is flowing again. The grateful smiles on the homeowners’ faces remind me why I love my job.

Midday: Heater Installation in Wheaton

Next, I head to Wheaton for a scheduled heater installation. The homeowners have opted for an energy-efficient model, which will save them money in the long run. It’s a complex job that takes several hours, but by early afternoon, the new system is up and running smoothly.

Afternoon: Emergency Heating Repair in Bolingbrook

Just as I’m finishing up in Wheaton, I get an urgent call from dispatch. A senior citizen in Bolingbrook is without heat, and temperatures are dropping. I quickly head over and find that the heating system’s blower motor has failed. Luckily, I have the necessary part in my van, and within an hour, heat is restored to the grateful resident’s home.

Evening: Routine Maintenance in Downers Grove

My last scheduled stop of the day is in Downers Grove for routine heating service. Regular maintenance is crucial for keeping systems running efficiently and preventing unexpected breakdowns. I perform a thorough inspection, clean key components, and replace the air filter.

End of Day: Wrapping Up and Looking Ahead

As I head back to the Energy Services office in Lisle, I reflect on the day’s accomplishments. I’ve helped multiple families stay warm and comfortable in their homes. Before calling it a night, I restock my van and review tomorrow’s schedule, which includes a furnace replacement in Aurora.

Working for Energy Services is more than just a job – it’s a commitment to keeping our communities warm and safe. Whether it’s furnace repair, heater installation, or emergency heating service, every day brings new challenges and rewards. And as I head home, I know I’ll be ready to do it all again tomorrow.
