A Day in the Life of a Turner & Schoel HVAC Technician

Morning: Gearing Up for the Day

My day at Turner & Schoel starts bright and early at 7 AM. After a quick team huddle, I review my schedule for the day. Today, I’m heading to Tuscaloosa for an AC repair and then to Northport for an air conditioner service call.

First Stop: AC Repair in Tuscaloosa

By 8:30 AM, I’m at my first client’s home in Tuscaloosa. The homeowner reports their AC isn’t cooling properly. After a thorough inspection, I discover a refrigerant leak. I explain the issue to the client and proceed with the necessary repairs, ensuring their system is back to peak performance.

Midday: Air Conditioner Service in Northport

Around noon, I head to Northport for a routine air conditioner service. These preventative maintenance calls are crucial for:

  • Extending the lifespan of the unit
  • Improving energy efficiency
  • Preventing unexpected breakdowns

I clean the condenser coils, check refrigerant levels, and ensure all components are functioning correctly.

Afternoon: HVAC Installation Consultation in Samantha

After lunch, I drive to Samantha for an HVAC installation consultation. The homeowners are considering upgrading their system, so I assess their current setup and discuss energy-efficient options that would best suit their needs and budget.

Evening: Emergency Air Conditioning Repair in Cottondale

Just as I’m wrapping up for the day, we receive an emergency call from Cottondale. A family’s air conditioner has completely shut down during a heatwave. I quickly head over to diagnose and repair the issue, grateful for the extensive training Turner & Schoel provides, which allows me to handle various HVAC emergencies efficiently.

End of Day: Reflection and Preparation

As I drive back to the office, I reflect on the day’s challenges and successes. Working for Turner & Schoel means every day is different, but the satisfaction of helping people stay comfortable in their homes remains constant. Before heading home, I restock my truck and prepare for another day of keeping Alabama cool.
