There are plenty of employers looking to hire trained HVAC technicians in Oklahoma. You may be asking yourself, what exactly does an HVAC technician do?

What Does an HVAC Technician Do?

An HVAC technician ensures that an HVAC system keeps structures cool in the summer and warm in the winter. They will install, maintain, and fix heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems and components.

In addition to HVAC systems, a technician will manage refrigeration systems for food transportation, medicines, and perishable items. Many companies use refrigeration systems, and this can even be something that an HVAC technician specializes in.

HVAC Technicians are also tasked with repairing, cleaning, and maintaining both HVAC and Refrigeration systems. They will also install electrical components, inspect HVAC units, work on refrigeration systems, repair defective parts, and more.

How Do I Get My HVAC Certification?

Getting a certification is the first step toward your new career. You can attend a technical college diploma program to prepare you for your certification exam. Many states and localities require certification before someone can work as an HVAC technician. The EPA, as example, requires EPA 608 certification before HVAC technicians can handle any type of refrigerant, to keep everyone safe.
