Weather prevents technicians from going on calls

Adverse weather prevents HVAC technicians from going on calls
When the HEAT is on!

Weather conditions play a crucial role in the safety, accuracy, and efficiency of inspections and installations. Heat is one factor that affects technicians and prevents him/her from carrying out a quality service. Working in attics where temperatures exceed 85-90 degrees, can be torturous for anyone. It can cause lightheadedness, heat exhaustion, and heatstroke. Working on rooftops also poses similar issues, which can further impact a technician’s safety.

High winds will delay your scheduled appointment.

On windy days, the strong gusts can affect the accuracy of airflow measurements during an HVAC inspection. Technicians need to consider wind direction and speed to ensure proper ventilation and system performance. Severe windy conditions can cause flying debris, and falling trees, and endanger technicians. If the conditions are too bad we will reschedule your appointment to the next available time.

Rainy days are a big “No, no” unless it’s an inside job!

Rainy weather can pose unique challenges during HVAC inspections and installations. Technicians need to be extra cautious to prevent water damage to the system and ensure all electrical components are properly protected. There is also the added concern of electrocution! When the weather becomes too dangerous for our technicians, all outdoor calls will be rescheduled. The safety of our technicians is paramount.

The chill can affect the will.

Technicians are willing to work in most conditions. There are, however, exceptions to the rule. Low temperatures can affect the functionality of tools and equipment.  This makes it difficult to get the job done.

When the thunder rolls.

When thunder roars and lightning strikes, it’s time for technicians to take cover. Working outdoors in a thunderstorm exposes technicians to unnecessary danger. Heavy rain and strong winds can also make the work environment hazardous, potentially leading to accidents or injuries. Power outages can also cause major disruptions, knocking out the power which will bring any HVAC job to a halt.

Their safety is our #1 priority

AC Dave Heating & Air has been dedicated to our customer satisfaction since 2006, however, our priority must be the safety of our technicians. So please understand that if our office contacts you to reschedule due to adverse weather conditions, it is to protect the well-being of our technicians and the quality of work they perform on your equipment.

We thank you for your patience during the Mid-winter and summer seasons. If you want to schedule a service call before the weather gets too hot or too cold, please call: 661 270 1961

Our lives were forever changed

In 1980, our lives were forever changed

Little did we know, this would not be the first time our lives would be forever changed. But in 1980, we welcomed our precious daughter into the world. Brianna Brandy, even from a young age, just wanted to help and save everything. She possessed a heart overflowing with love and compassion. Throughout her teenage years, she would offer our home to friends who needed a little break from their own families. Consequently. one of those friends ended up staying with us and is considered one of our own. Her selflessness knew no bounds.

Life took an unexpected turn

Life took an unexpected turn for Brianna after being diagnosed with mental illness.  Following a traumatic event that haunted her and had taken place in her younger years. This incident led her down dark pathways. She battled addiction and she struggled to overcome the demons that taunted her.

Amidst the struggles, a glimmer of hope emerged.

Amidst her struggles, a glimmer of hope emerged when Brianna became pregnant with our Grandson, Daniel. He was diagnosed with Autism when he was 3. Nonetheless, Brianna did the best she could. She was completely sober while breastfeeding Daniel until he could no longer breastfeed. She would do everything in her power to remain sober for her child, which often involved getting the Tarzana Treatment Center involved as a support system. It was a turning point, a beacon of light that made us truly believe she was on the path to recovery. She fought with every ounce she held, determined to conquer the darkness that threatened to consume her.

Life can be cruel

Six years after Daniels’s birth, our hearts were shattered into a million pieces. We received the devastating news that our precious child had been the victim of an accident involving a semi-truck. The pain is unbearable,. In the same way our world was forever changed once again. In the midst of our grief, we made a solemn promise to God, and Brianna, that we would not only raise Daniel and give him every opportunity to flourish in life. As well as keep him safe as Brianna asked at the same time continue to help others, in their battle to remain sober.

Today’s reflection

As we reflect on Brianna’s life, we are reminded of her unwavering love, her boundless generosity, and her indomitable spirit. As her parents, we, (Laurie and Dave Millard) wanted to honor Brianna’s memory. What better way to do that, other than beginning a 501c3 charity in her name? So the BBMS Happy Children Memorial Fund was founded. We understand the challenges that families living in sobriety face and appreciate how hard it is for some to leave a domestic violence situation.

None of this would be possible without you

None of this would be possible without the continued support from AC Dave Heating & Air, and the generosity of our community. It is because of you that we are able to bring hope and happiness to these families during the holiday season. Your contributions, whether through donations, volunteering, or spreading awareness, make a tangible difference in the lives of those who need it the most.

We are grateful to continue Brianna’s legacy

Together, we can continue Brianna’s legacy of love and giving. Let us stand united in supporting Laurie and Dave Millard, and the BBMS Happy Children Memorial fund. Together we can create a brighter future for families who have experienced the darkness of addiction and domestic violence.

Get involved.
