Keeping Homes Comfortable with Discount Heating & Cooling


A Day in the Life of an HVAC Technician

As an HVAC technician at Discount Heating & Cooling, my days are filled with exciting challenges and rewarding moments. From the moment I arrive at our office in Wheeling, IL, I gear up for a day of ensuring the comfort and safety of homes and businesses across the Northwest Suburbs of Chicago.

Morning Briefing

  • The day begins with a team huddle, where we review the schedule and discuss any unique situations we might encounter.
  • I load up my van with all the necessary tools and EPA-certified materials for HVAC installations, repairs, and maintenance.

On the Road

My first stop is a home in Buffalo Grove, where the homeowners have reported issues with their air conditioning unit. After a thorough inspection, I identify a refrigerant leak and proceed to repair the system, ensuring it operates at peak efficiency.

Next, I head to Arlington Heights to install a new heat pump system for a family upgrading to a more energy-efficient solution. I meticulously follow the manufacturer’s guidelines and local building codes to ensure a seamless and safe installation.

Educating Customers

Throughout the day, I make it a priority to educate our customers on the importance of regular maintenance and energy-saving tips. In Deerfield, I show a homeowner how to properly change their air filters and explain the benefits of professional energy audits.

Wrapping Up

As the sun sets over Prospect Heights, Lincolnshire, Palatine, and Mt. Prospect, I complete my final service call of the day, ensuring every customer’s HVAC system is running smoothly. I return to the office, ready to debrief with my team and prepare for another day of keeping our community comfortable and energy-efficient.
