The Role

HVAC service technicians repair and maintain heating and cooling equipment in commercial, and industrial settings. In this role, HVAC service technicians examine faulty equipment, conducting tests with a variety of devices to locate, diagnose, and isolate issues that interrupt performance or create hazards. In many cases, HVAC service technicians follow regular maintenance schedules to keep systems working reliably, but also need to conduct emergency service to make rapid repairs to customer systems.

This role requires a balance of technical and mechanical skills, knowledge about HVAC systems and components, and customer service in order to successfully troubleshoot HVAC issues and make necessary repairs. This full-time position may also require some travel, as these technicians work on-site

Responsibilities:

Maintain HVAC Systems

• Many of the HVAC service technician’s day-to-day duties involve performing regular or routine maintenance tasks on HVAC systems. These tasks can include clearing intake and outflow vents of dust and debris, ensuring that filtration systems are clean and effective, and replacing registers in residential or commercial locations. An HVAC service technician may also perform seasonal maintenance as a building’s system switches between heating and cooling functions.

Troubleshoot HVAC Equipment 

• Troubleshooting HVAC systems and system elements is another major duty of the HVAC service technician. Working from issues reported by customers or problems that arise during routine maintenance and system testing, the HVAC service tech attempts to determine which components are at fault. These technicians then determine whether the system or element can be repaired or if it needs to be replaced.

Repair and Replace HVAC Systems 

• HVAC technicians perform a variety of repairs for HVAC systems, ranging from simple parts replacements to complex issues that require a complete replacement of the HVAC system. If an entire system needs to be replaced, the HVAC service technician needs to install and test all new components. For simple repairs, they may replace one or more parts and conduct new tests to ensure that the repairs have restored the system to working order.

Consult with Customers

Throughout the repair process, these technicians may also provide the customer with updates, answer questions about the system, and provide advice on operations and maintenance

Ensure Safe Repair and Operations 

• While diagnosing and repairing HVAC systems, the service technicians also maintain safe operations and follow best practices for safely working with the system. In most cases, this includes disconnecting the system from its power source to reduce the risk of electric shock. They may also ensure that the areas around the system are dry and free of clutter. For oil and gas-based heating systems, HVAC technicians also ensure that the fuel systems are disconnected before starting repair work.

Maintain Customer and Service Records 

• HVAC technicians also maintain documentation related to customer systems and the services they perform. This helps to ensure that maintenance is performed according to schedule, and it also provides data related to ongoing or recurring issues with the system. HVAC technicians may also prepare documents for customers, including troubleshooting steps they can take between regular maintenance.

Qualifications / Skills: 

• Experience conducting routine and emergency repairs to HVAC systems while interacting directly with customers.
• Have a strong grasp of best practices and principles related to HVAC system installation, maintenance, and operations

• Excellent troubleshooting and problem solving skills
