Morning Routine
The day starts early for the dedicated HVAC technicians at Kelley Brothers. After fueling up with a hearty breakfast, I head to the office to review my schedule and gather the necessary tools and equipment for the day’s assignments.
First Call: AC Installation
My first stop is a residential home in Westland, MI, where the homeowners have requested a new central air conditioning system installation. After a thorough assessment of their existing setup, I explain the process and recommend the best energy-efficient unit to meet their cooling needs. With their approval, I begin the meticulous installation process, ensuring proper ductwork connections, refrigerant charging, and electrical wiring.
Midday Break
Around lunchtime, I take a brief break to recharge and grab a quick bite. It’s important to stay hydrated and nourished during these physically demanding days.
Afternoon Calls: Repairs and Maintenance
-
The next stop is a commercial property in Garden City, MI, where the building manager has reported an issue with their rooftop HVAC unit. Upon inspection, I identify a malfunctioning compressor and proceed to replace it, ensuring the system is running smoothly before moving on.
-
In Livonia, MI, a long-time customer requires routine maintenance on their home’s air conditioning system. I perform a thorough cleaning, change the air filters, and check for any potential issues that could lead to future breakdowns.
-
The final call of the day takes me to Redford, MI, where a family’s central air conditioning unit has stopped working altogether. After troubleshooting the issue, I determine that the problem lies with the capacitor. I replace the faulty component, and their cool air is restored.
Wrapping Up
As the sun begins to set, I head back to the office to complete paperwork, log service reports, and prepare for the next day’s adventures in the world of HVAC. It’s a rewarding feeling to know that my work has kept countless homes and businesses comfortable, no matter the weather outside.
