Where would we be without our valued HVAC technicians? We know for a fact that we have the hardest working technicians around and want to take a moment to recognize your hard work on this special day - HVAC Technician Day!

We can’t think of a better day to extend our individual appreciation to all of you than in the middle of Summer, June 22nd, when the hot days are made bearable by what you do to keep things cool.

We are very proud of our HVAC team members! Thank you for all that you do!

Finding the Right Technicians for the Job

recruitingtechniciansHiring an HVAC technician always starts with the golden rule, qualifications. Just like you wouldn’t want an inexperienced contractor working in your home, we feel the same way about our customer's homes.

We always check that all our technicians get the appropriate licensing and certification to ensure they’re the best fit to offer quality solutions. In addition, the HVAC field is one that you need to constantly grow and learn, so an interest in personal growth is essential too.

While it’s a rewarding career, becoming an HVAC technician is not for everyone, and we know that better than anyone.

Without Your Technician - Life Wouldn’t Be So Comfortable

livingconditionsBefore there was the luxury of HVAC, living conditions were extraordinarily different. Let’s take it back to before air conditioning was a staple in homes, businesses, and schools.

Can you imagine sleeping on your front porch because it was cooler than the inside of your home? Porches used to be more than just a home accent; they would offer protection from the sun and a shaded place to rest, socialize, and sometimes sleep.

Daytime errands and chores were often limited as much as possible during the sweltering heat, and things like cooking and baking weren’t done until the cooler evening hours. What a difference from our schedules today; even shopping was usually limited to after the sun went down!

HVAC Technicians Have an Important Job

The job of an HVAC technician is an important one as they ensure heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration systems are running correctly.

Not only is HVAC important to our comfort, but it helps keep medicine, food, and other things properly regulated; not to mention providing us with healthier indoor air for breathing! Let’s take a look at some essential HVAC responsibilities:
