6:00 AM – Starting the Day Right

The morning starts early at Magtek Mechanical, as we know our neighbors across New Lenox and Joliet depend on us for their comfort. After checking my daily weather briefing, I load up the service van with essential parts and tools.

8:00 AM – First Service Call

Our first stop is in Frankfort, where a family’s furnace isn’t producing enough heat. These routine maintenance calls are crucial during Illinois winters. A thorough inspection reveals the issue – dirty filters and worn belts affecting the system’s efficiency.

11:30 AM – Emergency Response

While finishing up in Mokena, we receive an urgent call from Tinley Park. An elderly resident’s heating system has completely shut down. These situations remind us why we maintain 24/7 emergency availability.

What we typically handle in a day:

• Preventive maintenance checks
• Furnace repairs and diagnostics
• Heater installations
• System efficiency evaluations

3:00 PM – Installation Project

The afternoon involves a complete furnace replacement in New Lenox. It’s satisfying knowing we’re helping homeowners upgrade to more efficient heating systems that will serve them reliably for years to come.

5:00 PM – Wrapping Up

Before heading back to base, there’s paperwork to complete and tomorrow’s schedule to review. Every day brings different challenges, but ensuring our community stays warm and comfortable makes it all worthwhile.

The best part of working in HVAC service is knowing we make a real difference in people’s daily lives, especially during those harsh Illinois winters when reliable heating isn’t just about comfort – it’s essential.
