From Sunrise to Sunset A HVAC Techs Journey Through Florida


Morning Briefing – 6:30 AM

The day starts early at 7th Generation Air Conditioning and Heating. As I grab my morning coffee, I review the day’s service calls across our coverage area. Today’s schedule includes stops in Lakewood Ranch and Parrish, where several homeowners are experiencing cooling issues – not surprising given Florida’s intense summer heat.

First Call – 8:00 AM

My first stop takes me to Fruitville, where a family’s AC unit is struggling to maintain comfortable temperatures. After a thorough inspection, I discover their system needs a refrigerant recharge and filter replacement – a common issue in our humid climate.

Midday Service – 11:30 AM

Between calls, I stay prepared with:
– Fully stocked service van
– Digital diagnostic tools
– Common replacement parts
– Fresh water (Florida heat is no joke!)

Afternoon Maintenance – 2:00 PM

The afternoon involves a scheduled maintenance visit in Braden River. Preventative care is crucial here in Florida, where AC systems work overtime nearly year-round. I perform a complete system check, clean the coils, and ensure everything’s running efficiently.

Final Call – 4:30 PM

My last stop in Myakka City involves helping a customer upgrade to a more energy-efficient system. We discuss options, energy savings, and schedule the installation for later in the week.

End of Day – 6:00 PM

Before heading home, I complete my service reports and prepare for tomorrow. Every day brings new challenges and opportunities to help our neighbors stay comfortable in Florida’s unique climate.

Remember: Regular maintenance prevents most major AC issues. Don’t wait until your system fails to give it the attention it deserves.
