HVAC contractors have seen a spike in demand for their services, and they expect it to persist as summers get hotter.

HVAC professionals Steve Seneff and Mikhel Dickason install a new system at a house in Broadlands, Va., on July 16.

This summer is already the hottest on record in D.C. Temperatures surpassed 101 degrees for a record-breaking four consecutive days this month. More thanBedard expects the increased demand for air-conditioning fixes to persist as summers get hotter and people keep their units longer. “It’s at the point where I’m going out on the job myself,” said Hugee, 70. “I’m retired from working in the field, but I’ve got to go put my tool belt back on because there’s a need.”

“I tell my guys, ‘This is what we’ve been looking for. We have three months to bring in the harvest,’” Hugee said. “So we have to endure hardship, and the hardship is the heat.” As Maharjan stood in a dark hallway outside the utility closet, the air-conditioning unit’s familiar hum rang through the house, signaling his work was done.Most of Maharjan’s repairs this summer have taken about an hour, but longer jobs like the one in Bethesda make it hard to meet the record demand — even as contractors clock 14-hour days. “We’re getting really busy, and we try to fit in as much as we can,” Maharjan said.
