HVAC repairs are a big part of my life

I really love meeting new people.

  • It is one of the best perks of my job.

For the past three years, I have been working as a residential HVAC service technician. I started this job shortly after I finished all of my Technical School. I got lucky, because a lot of my friends had to wait longer for an internship. My mom and dad knew someone that owned an HVAC Service Center. They talked to the person and got me a job right away. The day after I finished school, I started at the HVAC service center. I learned a lot in the first 6 months on the job. School didn’t really prepare me for much. It taught me a lot of basic information about heating, ventilation, and air conditioning. We worked on a few projects in the classroom, so I had some hands on training. Unfortunately, most of the items in the technical school were outdated. I was behind from the beginning. It’s been 3 years now and I have learned a lot. I started out working on basic heating and AC repair calls. I spent six months working with another licensed contractor before they let me go out on jobs alone. About six months ago, I applied for a position in our commercial department. You must have 2 years of residential training before you can apply to work in the commercial HVAC service industry. Every day is different and rewarding, and I am constantly meeting new people. I am very thankful for all of the opportunities that the HVAC industry has given to me.
