Job Description

Are you the pro who can take a scope, own the install, and deliver a spotless start-up?

If you thrive on independence, precision, and mentoring others, this role is for you.

• Own assigned installation projects: verify scope, confirm equipment and materials, and complete work within the planned labor budget.
• Lead and coach a helper or junior installer to keep schedules on track and standards high.
• Handle end-to-end system replacements and new installs—from teardown through commissioning—without hand-holding.
• Spot issues early, communicate with management about required adjustments, and identify when a change order is needed.
• Protect customer property, keep the jobsite organized, and finish all documentation accurately and on time.

• Electrical & Controls: Thermostats, low/line-voltage control wiring, and essential electrical connections.
• Sheet Metal/Duct: Build transitions and fittings; perform duct modifications as required by the install.
• Commissioning: Start-up, airflow checks, functional testing—aimed at eliminating callbacks.

Must-Haves

• Proven residential HVAC installation background.
• Valid driver’s license and clean/acceptable driving record.
• Strong tool proficiency (HVAC tools, hand tools, and power tools).
• Ability to read and apply install instructions, diagrams, and specs.
• Capacity to lift at least 50 lbs., work on ladders, and operate in tight areas (attics, basements, crawlspaces, mechanical spaces).
• Consistent attendance, reliability, and professional appearance.

Nice-to-Haves (High Priority)

• EPA Certification strongly preferred and required for Lead Installer consideration.
• Experience in light-commercial installations.
• History of leading a crew and developing apprentices.
• Specialized expertise with boiler replacements and multi-zone mini-split systems.
