HVAC technicians play an extremely important role in the day-to-day lives of nearly everyone, making life bearable in light of fluctuating weather conditions and temperature extremes. Adjusting indoor environmental temperatures are a key responsibility of HVAC technicians. HVAC is an acronym that means heating, ventilation and air conditioning. HVAC technicians are responsible for installation, maintenance, and operation of specialized equipment, including that used in refrigeration, heating and cooling. The main aim of persons who maintain this equipment is to ensure efficient use of energy and a resultant reduction in costs.

With the current energy crisis, effective, efficient operation of energy-related equipment is essential. It is for this reason that qualified HVAC technicians have become extremely important.

As in most fields, HVAC technician jobs are categorized into various classes and specializations. Some technicians deal solely in installation, while others are involved in the repair and maintenance of the equipment. Still others are involved in all aspects—the installation, repair and maintenance of various mechanical and electrical equipment.



In order to successfully secure an HVAC technician job, one must obtain intense knowledge of the field. Presently, there is great demand for HVAC technicians. Research indicates that many junior schools are now incorporating in their curriculum a course of study to prepare their students for such jobs. Many schools have in place a new curriculum in which they provide HVAC technician training courses for a minimum of six months up to a maximum of two years. During the course of study, students learn basic skills for installation, repair and maintenance of most mechanical and electrical equipment. HVAC technicians also acquire knowledge and experience through apprenticeship, in which a candidate learns through observation. This route normally ranges from three to four years.

After successfully completing either course of study, a person will be required to demonstrate skills in order to secure an HVAC technician job. Safety and competence are essential. Caution must be exercised when handling equipment, whether installing, making repairs or carrying out general maintenance.

In their course of work, HVAC technicians perform a series of tasks. Before any installation, the technicians normally run a number of tests on equipment to ensure the equipment is safe. After a thorough examination and verification of the equipment, the technicians undertake the installation process. After installation, they ensure the equipment is in working order. Technicians are responsible for all repair and maintenance of the equipment. HVAC technicians can also be involved in research on how to improve equipment so that it may operate more efficiently and thereby reduce costs and the use of energy.

There is no question that the world faces a serious energy crisis, with a great need the world over to consider alternative means of energy. Energy alternatives are sought that are not only relatively cheap and affordable, but environment friendly as well. It is for this reason that HVAC technician jobs are important and there is a growing need to have more people engaged in the field.

In conclusion, HVAC technicians are an extremely important group, and the need for them grows each day as the energy crisis worsens. It is therefore essential that people are trained in this field as we seek ways to conserve energy, ensure that heating and cooling equipment run optimally, and remain comfortable in our indoor environments.

What I liked about the service is that it had such a comprehensive collection of jobs! I was using a number of sites previously and this took up so much time, but in joining EmploymentCrossing, I was able to stop going from site to site and was able to find everything I needed on EmploymentCrossing.
