Keeping Cool in San Diego A Day in an HVAC Tech’s Life


Morning Routine

I kick off my day bright and early, fueling up with a hearty breakfast before heading to the Jackson & Foster office. As an HVAC technician, my job is to keep homes and businesses across San Diego County cool and comfortable, no matter how high the temperatures soar.

First Stop: AC Installation

  • My first job of the day is an air conditioning installation in La Mesa. The homeowners are eager to beat the heat with a brand-new, energy-efficient system.
  • I carefully inspect the site, taking precise measurements and ensuring everything is prepped for a seamless installation process.
  • With my trusted tools and years of experience, I work diligently to set up the new AC unit, connecting it to the ductwork and ensuring proper airflow.

Midday Maintenance

After a successful installation, I head over to Santee for an air conditioner service call. A local business has been experiencing some issues with their aging HVAC system, and it’s my job to get it running smoothly again.

Afternoon Repairs

  • The day continues with a series of AC repair jobs across El Cajon and Lemon Grove.
  • From diagnosing and fixing refrigerant leaks to replacing worn-out components, I tackle each issue with precision and care.
  • My goal is to restore optimal cooling while minimizing downtime for my valued customers.

Evening Wrap-Up

As the sun begins to set, I make my way back to the office in Scripps Ranch, wrapping up paperwork and preparing for the next day’s adventures. It’s a rewarding feeling to know that I’ve helped countless families and businesses stay comfortable, even on the hottest days of the year.

Working in the HVAC industry is more than just a job – it’s a commitment to providing essential services that enhance the quality of life for San Diegans. And with Jackson & Foster, I know I’m part of a team dedicated to excellence and customer satisfaction.
