A Day in the Life of an HVAC Technician at R. H. Witt
Morning: Gearing Up for the Day
As the sun rises over Glenview, IL, I start my day at R. H. Witt’s headquarters. After a quick team meeting, I review my schedule for the day. Today, I’m headed to Northbrook for an AC installation and then to Highland Park for some routine maintenance calls.
Mid-Morning: AC Installation in Northbrook
My first stop is a residential property in Northbrook. The homeowners have decided to upgrade their old system to a more energy-efficient model. I spend the next few hours:
- Removing the old unit
- Preparing the area for the new installation
- Installing the new AC system
- Testing and calibrating the equipment
Afternoon: Maintenance Calls in Highland Park
After lunch, I drive to Highland Park for a series of maintenance calls. These routine check-ups are crucial for ensuring optimal performance and preventing future issues. My tasks typically include:
- Cleaning or replacing air filters
- Checking refrigerant levels
- Inspecting electrical connections
- Lubricating moving parts
Late Afternoon: Emergency AC Repair in Glencoe
Just as I’m wrapping up in Highland Park, I receive an urgent call about an AC breakdown in Glencoe. I quickly head over to diagnose and repair the issue, ensuring the homeowners don’t have to endure the summer heat for long.
Evening: Wrapping Up
As the day winds down, I make my way back to the R. H. Witt office in Glenview. I complete my paperwork, restock my truck for tomorrow, and reflect on another satisfying day of helping customers stay comfortable in their homes and businesses across the North Shore, from Winnetka to Wilmette.
Working at R. H. Witt allows me to put my HVAC skills to use while serving our community. Every day brings new challenges and opportunities to learn, making this career both rewarding and exciting.
