A Day of Keeping Iowa Comfortable – Life as an HVAC Service Professional

6:00 AM – Rise and Shine

My day at Reeves Heating & Cooling starts early. After checking my service schedule for the day, I pack my tools and head out to cover our service area across Newton, Kellogg, and surrounding communities.

7:30 AM – First Call

Today begins with a furnace maintenance appointment in Colfax. Winter’s approaching, and smart homeowners know it’s crucial to have their heating systems checked before the cold hits. I perform a thorough inspection, clean vital components, and ensure everything’s running efficiently.

10:00 AM – Emergency Service

Got a call from Monroe – a family’s AC unit stopped working during an unexpected warm spell. These situations remind me why I love this job; there’s nothing quite like the satisfaction of restoring comfort to a grateful household.

1:00 PM – Smart Thermostat Installation

After lunch, I head to Goddard for a smart thermostat installation. More customers are embracing this technology to save energy and control their home climate remotely. It’s exciting to help people modernize their homes.

3:30 PM – Heater Maintenance

The afternoon takes me to Reasnor for routine heater maintenance. I always tell customers that regular maintenance is like:

  • Insurance for your system
  • Money saved on future repairs
  • Extended equipment life
  • Better energy efficiency

5:00 PM – Wrapping Up

Back at the shop, I complete my paperwork and prepare for tomorrow. Every day brings new challenges and opportunities to help our neighbors stay comfortable, no matter the season.

Remember, whether you’re in Newton or any of our service areas, maintaining your HVAC system isn’t just about comfort – it’s about peace of mind and energy efficiency.
