A Day in the Life of a Wighton’s HVAC Technician: Keeping SLO County Cool

Rise and Shine: Starting the Day Right

As a seasoned HVAC technician at Wighton’s, my day begins bright and early at 6:30 AM. After a quick breakfast and cup of coffee, I’m out the door by 7:15, ready to tackle whatever challenges the day may bring.

Morning Briefing: Teamwork Makes the Dream Work

8:00 AM marks the start of our daily team meeting at Wighton’s headquarters. We’ve been serving San Luis Obispo County since 1953, and our commitment to excellence hasn’t wavered. During the briefing, we discuss:

  • Today’s service calls and installations
  • Any ongoing projects or special requests
  • Safety reminders and best practices
  • Updates on new technologies or techniques in the HVAC industry

On the Road: Bringing Comfort to Our Community

By 9:00 AM, I’m on the road, heading to my first appointment. Today, it’s a routine maintenance check for a long-time customer in Paso Robles. Wighton’s has been a part of this community for over 68 years, and it shows in the warm welcomes we receive at every home.

Lunch Break: Refueling for the Afternoon

Around noon, I take a quick break to grab lunch and recharge. It’s a perfect opportunity to catch up with fellow technicians and share any insights from the morning’s work.

Afternoon Adventures: Problem-Solving and Customer Care

The afternoon brings a more challenging call – a homeowner in Atascadero is experiencing issues with their air conditioning system. As I troubleshoot the problem, I’m reminded of why I love working for Wighton’s. Our commitment to treating customers like family means going the extra mile to ensure their comfort and satisfaction.

Wrapping Up: Reflection and Preparation

As the workday winds down, I return to the office to complete paperwork and prepare for tomorrow. It’s satisfying to know that I’ve played a part in maintaining the comfort and well-being of our community.

At Wighton’s Plumbing, Heating, and Air Conditioning, we’re more than just service providers – we’re an integral part of the Central Coast community. Our strong values and quality workmanship have made us leaders in the industry, and days like today remind me why I’m proud to be a part of the Wighton’s family.
