For the past six weeks, we have been preparing for the Universal 608 Certification exam every morning… not to mention the homework in the form of crossword puzzles and word searches… oh what fun! Finally, after six weeks of hard work, dedication, and commitment, we completed the Universal 608 Certification Exam.

HVACTA: Universal 608 Certification Exam Time

Passing Core, Type I, Type II, and Type III is a must, thus, the hard work becomes justified. Just in case you are not familiar with the Certification, here’s what the EPA Universal 608 covers:

Requirement: It is mandated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under Section 608 of the Clean Air Act for anyone handling refrigerants.
Comprehensive coverage: Passing all four of the Universal 608 certification allows a technician to work on all types of appliances, from small appliances like window units to high-pressure commercial and industrial systems.
Scope: It covers service, repair, maintenance, and disposal of equipment with refrigerants, ensuring proper handling to protect the environment.

The level of dedication to HVAC was quite impressive as most participants had perfect attendance and was always into the process. With confidence, each possess the knowledge, skills, and abilities required… no doubt success will follow each along their personal and professional path.

Time to progress in this journey…

With a high demand for HVAC technicians, now is the time to let the adventure begin. On this last day of HVACTA, we are celebrating a new life, new journey.

On the Last Day of HVACTA

Today is a final day of our HVAC six-week program. All gained an enormous amount of knowledge, skills, and abilities as their journey will soon go into motion. Tomorrow we will be taking the Universal 608 Certification exam… hoping all pass all four segments.

Here’s what’s going on in the HVAC field and why this industry can be a lifechanging event:

The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that jobs for HVAC technicians will grow by 9% between 2023 and 2033, which is much faster than the average for all occupations.

As the U.S. population grows, so does the need for residential and commercial heating, cooling, and refrigeration systems.

States with warm climates, like Florida, have a consistently high demand for HVAC technicians to handle cooling needs.

The demand for HVAC service technicians is strong across the nation and is particularly high in states with large populations and warm climates, such as Florida, California, and Texas. The industry is also experiencing growth in areas like commercial air conditioning and new technology. 

Let’s take a couple minutes and congratulate this class as they enter a new life, a new journey.
