Hire HVAC Service Technicians for commercial mechanical work

A strong commercial service tech keeps maintenance agreements renewing and callbacks low. We recruit HVAC service technicians for commercial mechanical contractors, union and merit shop, and screen every candidate on the equipment, controls and service-agreement work your branch actually runs.

How we pre-qualify HVAC Service Technicians

  • EPA 608 Universal confirmed; NATE, OSHA 10/30 and state licenses checked where required
  • Equipment: centrifugal and screw chillers, RTUs, VRF, cooling towers, boilers, DOAS
  • Controls: DDC troubleshooting on BACnet systems, sequence-of-operations reading
  • Service mix matched: PM agreements, emergency on-call, retrofit and startup work
  • Union status and hall classification confirmed up front for union contractors
