HVACTA: Package PM

HVACTA: Package PM

by | Nov 6, 2024 | HVAC Program, HVAC Technical Academy, HVAC Training

HVACTA: Package PMPackage units are common in Florida. As a result, HVACTA workshops include package unit diagnostics, troubleshooting, preventive maintenance, and component replacement.

Package Unit

The recent hurricane caused package unit damage, participants shown are focusing on complete evaluation and repair. Ultimately a defrost board will need to be replaced. Once resolved, full preventive maintenance will be performed.

From split systems to mini splits, to package units, hands are getting dirty on them all.

HVACTA Day One: Ladder and Lifting

HVACTA Day One: Ladder and Lifting

by | Oct 8, 2024 | HVAC Program, HVAC Technical Academy, HVAC Training

Today marks the first day for participants within HVAC Technical Academy formally begin their HVAC journey. Is there a better way to get on the road than by obtaining safety ladder climbing and motor lifting? I thought not!

Ladder and Lifting

Safety is key to success in the HVAC Industry. A simple miscue on a ladder or improper lift could end your career. Recognizing the importance of safety, day one is dedicated to proper lifting and ladder climbing techniques.

As the photos show, all participants made it to roof safely. To complicate things, each carried a 25-pound tool bag filled with tools of the trade.

Looking forward to being part of this journey.

We are a training facility where “Learn by Doing” defines our approach to get YOU on a career path. Background friendly, HVAC Technical Academy partnered with 2nd Chance University and to assist ALL desiring personal and professional success.

HVAC Heat Pump: Talking About the Heat

HVAC Heat Pump: Talking About the Heat

by | Aug 5, 2024 | HVAC Program, HVAC Technical Academy, Universal 608 EPA

Reversing ValveWhen it comes to heat pump systems, now we’re talking about the heat. Straight cool systems are not equipped to reverse the flow of refrigerant to generate heat.

You had me with HEAT

In heating mode, the heat pump reverses the refrigeration cycle to extract heat from the outdoor air and transfer it indoors. The process begins with the outdoor coil acting as the evaporator, absorbing heat from the outdoor air despite cold temperatures. The refrigerant then travels to the indoor coil, now acting as the condenser, where it releases the absorbed heat to warm the indoor air. A blower fan circulates the heated air throughout the building.

Refrigerant Flow Reversal: Heat pumps are equipped with a reversing valve that switches the direction of refrigerant flow between heating and cooling modes. This valve allows the heat pump to provide both heating and cooling functions without the need for separate systems.

Want more? I thought so. Next time we will introduce Thermostat Control and the concept of Efficiency.
