Early Morning Preparations
The day starts early at Apex Air Conditioning & Refrigeration. By 6:30 AM, I’m already reviewing the day’s service appointments and checking my vehicle’s inventory of essential parts and tools.
First Calls of the Day
7:30 AM marks the beginning of client visits. Summer in Houston means emergency cooling calls are frequent, and our team prioritizes responses to homes without functioning AC units, especially for elderly residents and families with young children.
Common Daily Tasks Include:
- Performing preventive maintenance checks
- Diagnosing system failures
- Cleaning and replacing air filters
- Checking refrigerant levels
- Calibrating thermostats
- Educating customers about system operation
Midday Challenges
The Houston heat peaks around 2 PM, which often brings an influx of emergency calls. Experience has taught me to always keep extra components on hand, especially during these rush periods when quick solutions matter most.
Afternoon Education
Between service calls, I make time to stay updated on the latest HVAC technology and regulations. The industry evolves constantly, and Apex ensures we remain at the forefront of cooling solutions.
Evening Wrap-up
Before heading home, I complete service reports, restock my truck, and prepare for tomorrow’s appointments. It’s satisfying knowing that our work helps keep Houston residents comfortable through the harshest weather conditions.
Every day brings unique challenges, but the satisfaction of solving problems and helping people maintain comfortable indoor environments makes this career truly rewarding.
