A Day in the Life of a MASI Plumbing, Heating & AC Technician
Picture this: It’s a sweltering summer day in Nashua, NH, and you’re a MASI technician on a mission to rescue a family from their malfunctioning air conditioner. You arrive at the house, toolbox in hand, ready to save the day. Little do you know, you’re about to embark on a comedy of errors that would make even the most seasoned HVAC professional question their career choice.
The Great Ductless Debacle
As you step into the home, you’re greeted by a scene straight out of a sitcom. The family has fashioned makeshift fans out of pizza boxes, and the dog is sprawled dramatically on the kitchen tiles, tongue lolling. You assure them that their ductless HVAC system will be up and running in no time. Famous last words.
You begin your inspection, only to discover that the outdoor unit has become a five-star squirrel resort. These furry little tenants have turned the compressor into their personal playground, complete with a acorn-filled hot tub. Evicting them proves to be a challenge, as they’ve clearly studied the local tenant laws.
The Plumbing Predicament
While battling the squirrel uprising, you receive an urgent call from another client in Hudson, NH. Their toilet is overflowing, and they need help ASAP. You dash over, plunger at the ready, only to find that the cause of the clog is a child’s entire LEGO collection. Who knew those little plastic bricks could cause such big problems?
The Heating Hilarity
Just when you think your day can’t get any more bizarre, you’re summoned to Merrimack, NH, where a family insists their furnace is possessed. Upon arrival, you discover that the “demonic” noises are actually coming from a family of raccoons that have taken up residence in the ductwork. Apparently, they’re not fans of the homeowner’s taste in music and express their displeasure through a series of chittering protests whenever the radio is on.
The AC Absurdity
Your final call of the day takes you to Milford, NH, where a customer complains that their AC is blowing hot air. After a thorough investigation, you uncover the culprit: the family’s tech-savvy teenager had reprogrammed the smart thermostat to blast heat whenever anyone said the word “cold.” Talk about a practical joker!
As the sun sets on your eventful day, you head back to MASI headquarters in Amherst, NH, with a newfound appreciation for the unpredictability of your job. Who knew that being an HVAC technician could be so entertaining?
