Explain diagnostic findings, repair options, and maintenance recommendations clearly and professionally.
Document readings, photos, materials used, work performed, and recommendations in Housecall Pro.
Assist with equipment installations and replacements as needed.
Keep the company vehicle, tools, and customer work areas clean and organized.
Follow safe work practices and manufacturer service instructions.

Own basic HVAC technician hand tools.
Professional communication and customer service skills.
Reliable attendance, attention to detail, and a team-oriented attitude.
Ability to perform essential field duties, including climbing ladders, accessing attics and rooftops, and lifting or moving up to 40 pounds, with reasonable accommodation where applicable.

Preferred Qualifications

EPA Section 608 Universal certification.
Experience with Daikin, Mitsubishi, Bosch, and other major HVAC brands.
Experience with inverter-driven equipment and VRF/VRV systems.
HVAC installation and equipment replacement experience.
Familiarity with Housecall Pro or similar field service software.
