After lunch, you perform a 47-point inspection and preventative maintenance on the compressor, its refrigerated or desiccant dryer, and auxiliary air components. You wrap up by documenting work orders and time sheets, advising the customer on Package CARE, Preventative Maintenance, Diagnostics, Audits, and Leak Detection, and coordinating next steps and parts with the Service Coordinator.
