Understanding the basic concepts of air flow, building distribution boxes, and running flex is a must know how to do HVAC element. Part of our responsibility at HVAC Technical Academy is to ensure all participants understand air flow fundamentals, theory and application… this is just what we do!
Fundamentals
HVACTA Doing the Flex
Every day is a day of celebration at HVAC Technical Academy. Closing out our third week means it is just about time to get down and hands-on dirty. We recently completed installations for three split systems… you know what’s next.
HVACTA Braze is what I do
Today we introduced brazing techniques to a group of first timers. Each had their way with multiple copper cuts and connections… oh such a journey!
HVACTA: Participants Teaching Time
During the first week participants grab a common HVAC component and/or application with the chore of explaining what the part is, what it does, and ways to diagnose as well as the manner of which to explain to the resident for a clear understanding.
Truth is, HVAC is centered around customer service, so we can never neglect customer experience. Recognizing and placing ourselves in the customer shoes is an important part the service technician needs to excel all.
HVACTA – “P” is for Optimal Plenum Performance
At our workshop facility, all work with duct board (building boxes), flex, mastic, tape, hangers, registers, and much more to secure an efficient plenum structure. After all, discoloration due to an improper build is NEVER a good thing.
The group practiced plenum elements yesterday and will perfect the skill today. Fortunately their new system swaps are just about complete so we will be connecting and perfecting air flow soon… keep checking us out, share, like, and make comments.
HVACTA: Brazing Saddles
All participants got involved learning the skills of torch safety and use. Not a bad way to gain knowledge of the HVAC skill set… by DOING!
We are a hands-on workshop facility located in Sanford, Florida, where “Learn by Doing” defines our approach to get YOU on a path to personal AND professional success. Background friendly, HVAC Technical Academy partnered with 2nd Chance University to assist ALL desiring personal and professional success.
