HVAC Technician

A HVAC Technician performs work on a range of heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems. You might conduct regular maintenance services or make repairs when necessary. HVAC Technicians might install new systems, make adjustments to individual system components or replace entire systems. You might specialise in residential work or focus on larger industrial equipment.

HVAC Technicians should be organised and be able to manage their time well. It’s important that you can work with technical drawings and diagrams and need to have excellent attention to detail. HVAC Technicians should have strong observational abilities and must be able to follow instructions closely.
