6:00 AM – Rise and Shine
The day begins early at Blue Hills Mechanical, as winter in Massachusetts waits for no one. I grab my essential tools and check the day’s schedule while enjoying my morning coffee.
7:00 AM – First Call in Weymouth
Our first appointment is a heating service call in Weymouth. An elderly couple’s furnace isn’t producing enough heat – a common issue during these harsh New England winters. After a thorough inspection, it turns out to be a clogged filter and worn belt that needs replacement.
9:30 AM – Furnace Installation in Braintree
The next job takes us to Braintree for a complete furnace replacement. These installations typically take several hours, requiring:
- Removal of old system
- Installation of new unit
- Ductwork inspection
- System testing
- Client education on maintenance
2:00 PM – Emergency Call in Milton
A urgent service call comes in from Milton – no heat during one of the coldest days. We rearrange the schedule to accommodate this emergency. These situations remind me why we’re essential to our community during winter months.
4:30 PM – Final Service in Randolph
The day ends with a routine maintenance check in Randolph. Regular maintenance helps prevent those dreaded emergency calls and keeps systems running efficiently.
6:00 PM – Wrap Up
Back at the shop, I complete paperwork, restock the service van, and prepare for tomorrow. Another satisfying day helping our neighbors stay warm across the South Shore.
Remember: proper heating maintenance isn’t just about comfort – it’s about safety and efficiency in our New England homes.
