HVAC Technicians troubleshoot daily activity. When it comes to deciding the most effective and efficient move, HVAC Technical Academy students examine potentials using the Situation, Task, Action, Resolve problem solving technique.

Hands-On Learning

  • HVAC TA DiscolorationSituation: Examine not just the immediate area, look at the surrounding to gain a complete analysis.
  • Task: What is going on, what is the resident complaining about, what do you need to resolve?
  • Action: After determining the situation and task, what action will you take to resolve. Once the action is weighed and decided upon… time to perform.
  • Result: When all is said and done, was the problem taken care of? At this time, reflect on what you did and what changes could you have made to be more effective.

Today at HVAC Technical Academy: Pressure Checking

Today at HVAC Technical Academy: Pressure Checking

by | Jun 8, 2022 | HVAC Program, HVAC Protram, HVAC Technical Academy

Line sets are required to hold pressure. During a system swap, or anytime a system is opened, any fractures in the line will cause refrigerant to leak, which can be quite expensive and uncomfortable for the resident.

Hands-On Learning

HVAC TA Line SetsTechnicians learn by doing… today we reviewed proper brazing techniques in those hard-to-reach places. After checking, the line had a few fractures which needed to be resolved.  HVAC Technical Academy expects all students to know how to braze, how to check pressures, how to vacuum, how to measure microns, and how to troubleshoot.
