We are living the dream… and making it real! Here we are in the middle of week three, and all are getting their hands (and minds) into what it takes to perform a full system swap. The past couple days we prepared by reviewing low voltage wiring… today we are heading to get it all up and running.

HVACTA: New System Installation, part 1
Understanding low voltage wiring is not an option… it is a MUST. Here’s a quick summary: HVAC low-voltage wiring uses a 24-volt AC control circuit to send signals between the thermostat and the heating/cooling equipment (furnace, air handler, condenser). This control wiring tells high-voltage components, such as the compressor and fan motors, when to turn on or off via relays and contactors.
The thermostat acts as the primary control interface and a series of switches that open or close the low-voltage circuits based on temperature settings.
Keep in on this journey as the group builds, tests, troubleshoots, and performs preventive maintenances on the system they are installing… it’s gonna rock!
For those interested in a challenging and rewarding career move, HVAC may be the perfect lifelong journey where every day you get to become a hero.
