On the day before Thanksgiving, today is truly a blessing for many reasons. No doubt each holds their own things to be grateful, as for myself, I am over the top with this group! Though a few difficult learning moments have faced each participant, all showcased resolve and grit.
With a growing number of residents taking advantage of package unit HVAC systems, participants are required to get to know these systems, inside and out. At HVAC Technical Academy, our six-week hands-on workshops includes heat pump systems, straight cool systems, mini-splits, and, of course, package units.
When it comes to knowledge, skills, and abilities, HVAC service technicians do it all. We are talking about plumbing, electrical, carpentry, and air conditioning / heating, there’s no other industry like it. With so much to learn, our principle is straight forward: learn by doing.
With two days to go until conclusion, all are still active, taking care of business, and prepping for the 608 EPA Universal exam coming up on Thursday.
HVAC technicians oftentimes take the role of electrician, plumber, carpenter, and all-around handy person. Truth is, care must always be part of the HVAC equation.
Every day is a day of progression. Today we introduced brazing techniques to a group of first timers. Each had their way with at least three copper cuts and three connections.
