Today all received their multi-meter and reviewed capacitor basics, testing, and taking first steps on an exciting journey.
Soon we will be deep diving on the refrigeration cycle as well as getting our hands on stepping into diagnostics and troubleshooting… oh what fun!
If you enjoy daily challenges, working with your hands, and never a dull moment, the HVAC industry may be a good fit for you and HVAC Technical Academy can get you there in under two months.
There’s a difference between knowing and doing. Here at HVAC Technical Academy, we do both. Mornings are typically dedicated to knowing while in the afternoon we concentrate on the doing.
An HVAC capacitor is an important component with one mission: store and release electrical energy to give motors (like the condenser fan and blower fan) the jolt needed to start and keep running smoothly. Two common capacitor types are start capacitors (for initial power) and run capacitors (for continuous operation).
For those following our posts, it’s easy to get the picture of what HVAC Technical Academy is all about… all participants work hard… every day.
To be clear, the HVACTA track is designed for those individuals who learn best by doing. If you are looking for an easy and slow ride, no need to punch your ticket here. In other words, get ready to learn and work from week one.
Looking forward to being part of this journey. For those interested in HVAC as a career, give me a call.
Workshop Status:...
Nothing like spending an afternoon working on condenser fan motors… today all were tasked to perform full condenser fan motor (CFM) replacements, check capacitors, and, as Mrs. Smith has a hair appointment, all must be completed within 45 minutes. At the end of the day, the resident was happy and had a nice new look.
