A Day in the Life of a Harley’s Heating & Air Technician: Keeping Lincoln Cool


Rise and Shine: The Early Bird Gets the Cool Air

As an AC technician at Harley’s Heating & Air, my day starts bright and early. The summer heat in Lincoln, NE waits for no one, and neither do we! After a quick breakfast and a strong cup of coffee, I’m out the door by 7 AM, ready to tackle the day’s challenges.

First Stop: Emergency Call

My first task of the day is an emergency call from a distressed homeowner whose air conditioner decided to quit in the middle of a heatwave. Upon arrival, I quickly diagnose the issue:

  • Inspect the thermostat
  • Check refrigerant levels
  • Examine the compressor

Turns out, it’s a faulty capacitor. With a swift replacement, cool air is flowing again, and I’ve got one happy customer to start my day.

Midday: Routine Maintenance

After the morning rush, it’s time for some scheduled maintenance visits. These are crucial for preventing future breakdowns and ensuring systems run efficiently. I clean coils, change filters, and check for any signs of wear and tear.

Afternoon: New Installation

The highlight of my day is installing a brand new, energy-efficient air conditioning system for a growing family. It’s satisfying to know that I’m helping them stay comfortable while also reducing their energy bills.

Evening: Wrapping Up

As the sun begins to set, I finish up my last service call of the day. Before heading home, I ensure my truck is restocked and ready for tomorrow’s adventures in air conditioning repair.

Working for Harley’s Heating & Air isn’t just a job; it’s a commitment to keeping Lincoln cool and comfortable. Every day brings new challenges and opportunities to help our community beat the heat!
