Seems like yesterday ten fantastic people allowed me to be part of their journey; and allowed me to share much of myself, even a page or two of an unpublished master novel.

The past six weeks was filled with frustration, anxiety, hard work, and personal/professional growth… and every moment became a reason to… (your time to finish the sentence).

HVACTA – Celebration

All workshops bring a unique flavor, some not so sweet, others pre sugar. I must admit, the past six weeks truly reflect why Elaine, Andrew, Robert, and myself remain committed to such a life-changing adventure.

The enclosed photo showcases Peter, for good reason. In case you are uncertain, the old fella is me, Danny.

A huge thank you to each participant, their guests, family, and to CareerSource of Central Florida.

After six weeks of hard work, study, and hands-on learning, the past has culminated to taking the Universal 608 EPA exam. With confidence, the results will be positive.

HVACTA – Universal 608 EPA Test

We take the Universal 608 EPA exam seriously. From day two, week one, attention to understand the concepts, applications, and methodologies beginning at 9:00 am, holding steady for six weeks straight.

Understanding the basic concepts of air flow, building distribution boxes, and running flex is an integral HVAC element and one which must be physically completed.

Recognizing the condenser in an HVAC system is the heart, participants become intimately involved with the outside system by breaking it down and rebuilding on their path to a better understanding.

HVACTA: Condenser Time

Today was designed to swag components, explain each element, and test accordingly. From the condenser each will be assigned an air handler with the same guidelines to break down, diagnose, and rebuild. An excellent hands-on exercise on multiple accounts.

Cee Bee Air Systems Inc. has been servicing and installing air conditioning systems for as long as I can remember. On a personal note, their team is top class and for those fortunate to be employed by them, you picked a great company.

As Cee Bee Air Systems Inc. detailed, customer service and satisfaction and job well done (the first time) are keys to success. Much of what we conduct at HVACTA parallels with their philosophy and methodologies, which reinforces solid participant workshop priorities here at HVACTA.

With gratitude and respect, thank you Cee Bee Air Systems for the visit and partnership.

Every day is an HVAC hands-on adventure, so why should your workshop training be anything but a dedication to progression… I thought so.

HVACTA: Today in the HVAC Field

Today we received the results of a complete system swap. Participants get their hands and back in the chore of taking systems off the trailer. The condenser and air hander were then moved by the group to an area where recovery, component testing, part diagnostics, and scrapping are performed.

Condensers are heavy, no better way to find out how to move these around than by doing… don’t you think?

We have one solid group readying to enter an HVAC journey toward personal and professional success. Even got a picture of our primary HVAC instructor, Robert. In case you are unsure, Robert is the one with the __________ legs (you fill in the blank).

HVACTA: Group Photo March 2025

Today the group was tasked to build boxes. Notice we have one participant duct knife ready… anyway, all got down and dirty with the board, mastic, and tape.

The photo depicts one of the hands-on working areas. Lots of HVAC projects are going on here.
