HVACTA: Group Day Two Photo and Warm Up

Day two is about development and seamlessly getting into HVAC industry expectations from an employer, client, and technician perspective. In addition we came together as one unified group as the photos detail.

Participants are expected to learn the complete HVAC cycle, including proper procedures for using a dolly to take a condenser off the trailer.

Gotta run as a new system is heading down the road and we need to take it off the trailer, inspect, and ensure all paperwork is correct… yep, we do it all.

Interested in getting into the HVAC industry in less than two months, consider HVAC Technical Academy.

Definitely proud of the product given the limitations presented (which was intentional). After all, getting the job done in the most in confined areas makes the job easier when given open spaces. That’s what we do here, make it a challenge and this gives all an advantage.

HVACTA: Burn Baby Burn

After several hours/days of brazing, all are required to perform in the oddest situations. Often enveloped by cardboard, all practice flame lengths and positions. Truth is, better to burn under a controlled situation than at Mrs. Smith home… don’t you think?
