HVACTA – “P” is for Plenum

At our workshop facility, all work with duct board (building boxes), flex, mastic, tape, hangers, registers, and much more.

The group practiced plenum elements yesterday and will perfect the skill today. Fortunately their new system swaps are just about complete so Monday will be a day of connecting and perfecting air flow.

This means once all are up and ready, we will continue the project by working on air flow; box, flex, and registers will be added on. Naturally once all is resident ready, all will perform troubleshooting and preventive maintenances.

Not too worry, photos of their progression will be joining as we go so check back soon
One-on-one attention paid off big time.

Initially each participant carried tools up the ladder, ensuring the 3-contact rule, without any hitches. Once completed, each took another trip up the ladder carrying a nitrogen tank… a bit heavier and uncomfortable but part of the HVAC job.

Today we will be introducing the art of brazing and torch use. Naturally safety and PPE will be part of the plan. Check us out next time to see their work.

HACTA: What a Difference a Day MakesWhat a difference a day makes. If you recall, yesterday I posted an empty workshop, today, not quite so empty. What a life-changing journey we are about to lift off.

And then there’s TODAY!

Throughout the upcoming six weeks we will witnessing an HVAC adventure from individuals with no HVAC experience to become a well-prepared group offering the skills, knowledge, abilities, EPA certification, OSHA 10 trained, and high-grade tools.

Perhaps next time you will tag along? For those looking for an excellent path into HVAC, let me know.
