Early Morning: Getting Ready for the Heat
My day at Southern Values Cooling & Heating starts before sunrise. As a service technician covering the Bradenton and Lakewood Ranch areas, I know that Florida summers wait for no one. By 6:30 AM, I’m already reviewing the day’s service calls and loading my truck with essential parts and tools.
Morning Calls: Emergency Response
The first call typically comes from early risers in Parrish who’ve woken up to a warm house. These emergency AC repairs are priority-one during summer months. Common issues include:
• Frozen evaporator coils
• Malfunctioning thermostats
• Refrigerant leaks
• Failed capacitors
Midday: Scheduled Maintenance
Between emergency calls, I handle scheduled maintenance appointments in Braden River and Foxleigh. Preventative maintenance is crucial in our climate, where AC systems run almost year-round.
Afternoon: New Installation Consultation
The afternoon often involves consulting on HVAC installations. Today’s stop is in Ellenton, where a homeowner needs to replace their aging system. We discuss energy-efficient options and appropriate system sizing for their home.
Evening Wrap-Up
Before heading home, I ensure all paperwork is complete and my truck is restocked for tomorrow. In Florida’s climate, we know tomorrow will bring another busy day of keeping our communities comfortable.
The most rewarding part of working at Southern Values Cooling & Heating is helping neighbors stay comfortable in our challenging climate. Whether it’s a simple AC service or a complete system overhaul, every call matters during our intense Florida summers.
Remember, regular maintenance is key to preventing those midnight emergency calls. Stay cool, Florida!
