Early Start in the Wisconsin Cold
The alarm buzzes at 5:30 AM, and as an Air Tech Heating technician, I know it’s going to be another busy day serving our Wisconsin communities. The forecast shows temperatures dropping into the single digits, which means our phone lines will likely be busy with emergency calls.
Morning Brief
Today’s schedule includes:
- Furnace replacement consultation in Oakfield
- Heater installation estimate in Rosendale
- Two maintenance checks in surrounding areas
The first stop is particularly urgent – a family in Oakfield whose 20-year-old furnace finally gave out during last night’s freeze. After warming up the service truck and double-checking my inventory of parts and tools, I head out while the streets are still quiet.
On the Job
Winter in Wisconsin means every minute counts. When temperatures plummet, a working heating system isn’t just about comfort – it’s about safety. During the Oakfield consultation, I carefully inspect the existing system and discuss modern, energy-efficient options with the homeowner.
By midday, I’m measuring spaces and calculating requirements for a new heater installation in Rosendale. The homeowners are building an addition to their house, and proper sizing is crucial for optimal performance and efficiency.
End of Day
As the sun sets on another winter day, I finish up paperwork and prepare for tomorrow’s schedule. There’s satisfaction in knowing that our work keeps local families warm and comfortable through Wisconsin’s challenging winters.
Remember, whether you’re in Oakfield, Rosendale, or anywhere in our service area, proper heating system maintenance and timely replacements are essential for staying warm and energy-efficient during our long winter months.
