Morning Rounds: 7:00 AM
The day begins early at Stegall Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electrical, with the morning brief outlining our service calls across Birmingham and surrounding areas. The crisp morning air reminds me why our heating services are so crucial during these cooler months.
First Call: Mountain Brook – 8:30 AM
Our first stop takes us to a home in Mountain Brook where a furnace needs attention. These older homes often present unique challenges, but that’s what makes the job interesting. After a thorough diagnostic check, we identify and repair a faulty ignition system.
Mid-Morning: Vestavia Hills – 10:45 AM
Between calls, I review the day’s schedule. A homeowner in Vestavia needs their electrical panel inspected. Safety always comes first in our line of work, especially when dealing with electrical systems.
Lunch Break: Homewood – 1:00 PM
Quick lunch stop before heading to Helena for an emergency furnace replacement. These moments give us time to catch up on service updates and new technical bulletins.
Afternoon: Helena & Hoover – 2:30 PM
The rest of the afternoon includes:
– Emergency furnace replacement in Helena
– Electrical repair in Hoover
– Final service check in Mountain Brook
End of Day: 6:00 PM
Before heading back to headquarters, I ensure all paperwork is complete and the service van is restocked for tomorrow. It’s satisfying knowing we’ve helped keep our Birmingham community comfortable and safe.
Key takeaways from today:
– Always double-check safety protocols
– Maintain clear communication with customers
– Stay updated on latest HVAC and electrical regulations
– Keep emergency supplies well-stocked
Remember, whether it’s a simple repair or complete system replacement, every job contributes to our community’s comfort and safety.
