Commercial & Residential Air Conditioning Technicians

Working on residential HVAC systems means going into people’s homes and interacting directly with customers. So, in addition to understanding HVAC technologies, you need to be able to listen carefully, ask relevant questions, and explain issues and repairs for things like heat pumps in a way that customers can understand so that they will trust you and your expertise.

Residential techs are also typically expected to sell HVAC products and service contracts, so being able to connect with people is key. For instance, you may find yourself trying to convince a customer to invest in a new HVAC unit that offers greater energy efficiency.
