I’m 22 now, been a service tech for a little over 2 years and getting into this field has been the best decision I have ever made. I bought a house at 21 and I’m now making a little over 100k a year. If you’re questioning whether or not to get into it, do it. Be willing and able to work and learn and you can do this. It’s not the easiest career, but it’s so worth it. It’s very rewarding.
Hey Nicholas, I’m currently the same age as you and although it may seem like I’ve wasted time, I’m ready for a career change. I’ve visited schools and am interested in the craft but also very nervous as I wasnt the brightest in my schooling career, and I’ve heard it’s necessary to read schematics and blue prints on my visits. I also know not a single thing about it but if the money is there I’m willing to do the work. Have you ever had second guesses as to which trade you should go into? Because for me unfortunately I’m not passionate about any trade but fell into a hole in life and see trades as a way out and see hvacr as one of the higher paying trades. any reply helps thanks.
@@Keithmmm yeah I had second thoughts, but I’ve learned to ignore that and just focus on what I do now. I’ve made it a priority to find reasons to enjoy it. And you haven’t wasted time, 22 is young. If you’re on the service/ diagnostic / repair side (I can only speak for residential work), then there are no blueprints. Schematic reading occasionally is helpful, but it’s extremely rarely necessary at all.
I turned 19 last month and im considering leaving college to go trade school for hvac(my major is undecided cause I didn’t know what I wanted to do) im in Florida btw, can you explain how you’re already making 100k and what I can do to get like you
I just retired from 25 years of being a hvac technician. I'm 56 and can now take it easy. Just want to add that the HVAC industry more than just residential work, if you want to make a good living you can go into commercial HVAC field. Working on large equipment is more stressful and requires special training but can be very rewarding. It takes years of training both in the field and in the classroom but once you get there you will be highly skilled and you will be in demand.
Im 24 about to be 25. I'm going all in on this career. I'm tired of making a little above minimum and want a career where I can learn and grow from there.
@@MBJH17isbackonlyone Good luck. The problem I encountered was most small companies wanted 4 or 5 years experience before they would hire me and I was fresh out of technical college. But persistence pays off so don't let anyone tell you it will never happen because it will. Be willing to learn and show up for work early, ask lots of questions and don't be on your phone constantly. Try to find a mentor to work with you will learn faster but be patient. The more you learn the easier it will become so learn, learn and keep your skills growing.
I find commercial takes me to far from the family. School districts are the way to go. I work on Ems, units from 4ton bards to 500ton Trane chillers. I make good money and I got every benifit there is. And my job is not hard my average pace is like 1 blower motor every 8 hour shift.
@@MBJH17isbackonlyone ... get ready to crawl around small tight attics with high heat ... small crawl spaces in basements... we are called rafter rats or celler dwellers... and I hope your not scared with heights... im not trying to be a party pooper... just the facts... your body will take a beating... i started in residential... then switched to commercial/ industrial... i make ridiculous money! Good luck!!!! P.S...You must have mechanical ability or you won't last or won't advance (25yrs in the field/ management)... p.s.s... don't listen to Noah jaugs.... poor mindset!!
Damn, I watched this video 4 years ago when I thought about making the switch. I know have non- union residential, union residential, and full commercial experience. I start out out installing, maintenance, and now I am a commercial service tech. It’s incredibly how far I have come in such a short amount of time. Thank you! But man, this video is absolutely 110% accurate. I agree with all of it and could not explain it any better. Hope you are still out there man!
@@JoeJoe-gg9uc making 35$ an hour. Still doing commercial. Currently out on medical leave. Hurt my shoulder and received surgery. I love this trade, but it is hard on the body.
I’ve been in the field for over 8+ years and I’ve done very good for myself and worked very hard to get to where I am and I get bored every now and again and look up random videos about hvac (difficult diagnoses processes or even hearing peoples opinions/ tips on coming into the field) you have the most spot on examples and advice for some one come in and I want to tell you you that I respect you and you said everything I would have said to anyone asking about it . Keep it up and I hope you the best on everything you do man
I was basically the installation back bone of a company here in British Columbia. Asked the boss about Unionizing, he threw a fit like a baby. Gave him 2 weeks notice and 2 weeks later they had filed for what the US would call chapter 7 bankruptcy. Cya Eli, thanks for the shirt off your back.
Sometimes, you gotta get your foot in the door! Me, I like sells. An air conditioning unit, a burglary alarm system, a microwave oven, some freon gas. Every trade!
Upselling is easy. Even the minimum wager have to upsell everyday. "Would you like a large drink and fry with that sir? " Its easy. Especially if your already in the customers home. Sell them a tune up or "new part " to continue making sure their system works.
@@themacocko6311 you can request a higher wage of they require you to do that. If they don't want to give it to you go apply somewhere that will. Life is not as hard as ppl make it seem
Great advice. I’m an installer in Vegas and one piece I’d add is that you can be afraid of heights (pack units) afraid of the heated attics (up to 140 degrees.) the hardest part of the job is the mental part. There will be times it gets so hot you feel like you’re going to pass out or blackout. Remember drink a lot of water, and NEVER DUMP ICE COLD WATER ON YOU AFTER GETTING OUT OF AN ATTIC. Easiest way to send yourself into shock. The money is really good from March/April through sept/October. Then it’s slow after. You still can make 60-80k a season installing. Maybe 15-20k off-season.
Hello, I’m in vegas too and I’m about to graduate highschool, I want to start my journey in hvac but I’m not sure where to start/apply, by any chance could you tell me where you applied ? Or how could I get started
I’m a tech in vegas, bro. 2 story package units (not the houses than you can get up on the first level and walk up to the second) plays a total mess on your head. My worry is falling not even fixing the damn unit lol! good luck out there, be safe! If you’re looking to move to the service side let me know!
51 year old journeyman of almost 30 years ehre.. love seeing a young man get in the trade and promote it.not enough people getting into the trades these days. we have been telling kids for 50 years you can't make money with out a college education, here is a prime example of a young man proving that just because you don't go to college does not mean that you are locked out of a good career.
This comment is so true I'm 20 years old I'm trying to get my friends into it as well especially my friends younger than me also since you have alot of experience would you suggest writing down steps for certain procedures like Evacs,recoverys and sequence of operations if the tech has a hard time remembering the steps
I'm 46 and I've been working in factories for a long long time. Would this be a good pivot for me at my age? I made 46K last year, I need more than that.
As a master Commercial/ Industrial HVAC technician with 34 years experience you are exactly right!! I work for one of the largest HVAC manufacturers in the world. In this career you will be an installer, service tech and a salesman if you expect to get to the top of your game. Learning every aspect of this business will drive up your worth throughout your career. This career field has unlimited possibilities if you give it your all... I also teach HVAC at our local trade school at night and try to instill this in the new techs! I’ve always had a moto about my worth...”learn everything you can about this business....and sell it to the highest bidder”! Glade to see young new talent!!!
I’m a current HVAC student. This video gave me hope, no lies school is pretty intense and I’m only in month 3. Learning to read schematics can feel overwhelming and actually tinkering with thermostats / ac units feels like I’m climbing a mountain with my bare hands. But this video made me feel better about myself and my dream of becoming a technician 15 months from now 🙏
Good luck in the field Rex I went to school New Hampshire school mechanical trades. Graduated worked in HVAC got hurt. Went over to maintenance for facilities. My recommendation would be watch for the sales right around now Black Friday leftovers. Home Depot right now has quite a bit they always get rid of clearance items. The batteries alone right around now will save you hundreds. Don’t overcharge them and don’t leave them on the charger or in the tool Long term.
Been in the trade since 1984 when I entered a college Technologist program for HVAC. Did some mechanical estimating , sales and marketing early on and then went full bore into the trade . I’m 55 now and still enjoy it but I’m feeling the workload more . God Bless all who chose this Trade ✝️
I live in Florida and just made the decision to change at 33 years old from my desk job to something that will not only have great income potential but also will keep me physically active as well as provide me with the skills to be part of a trade that is a need in so many aspects of our lives.. I start school Monday and this video definitely helped me feel way more confident in my decision.. Thanks
I start HVAC school in August, I’m applying at a few locations for helpers now. I’m 20 years old and glad I found my passion for this young! Super dope channel man!
joseph santos wats up Joseph! Thanks for tuning in bro, you’re doing a good job of getting ahead , most people wait until the end to apply for jobs. If you can get in as a helper now , by the time you’re done with school, you may get moved up to a tech position with that company . That’s a good idea. I tried the same thing but I didn’t have any luck but it was the winter time . With the warm weather coming up, I’m sure you will find a spot bro! Keep me updated on everything bro !
Yung HVAC YOURE here now! Haha, but yea I’m super excited to start school, I love problem solving and am super excited I found HVAC. Keep up the channel man, I’m loving the content!
joseph santos haha you’re right and yea I’m the same way man. I’ve always been able to build things without instructions , solving problems and other little things that hinted at this kind of work and now that I’ve found it. It’s great! Thanks again for your support bro! Keep me updated on everything man !
@@InfiniteDreamzxP it would help. Ive been a mechanic but wanting to get into HVAC/appliance repairs. It helps if you are mechanical inclined and know how to read schematics, and also how to be resource full. If you dont know an awnser know how to look up the information. Eveey issues in my home for ny appliances and HVAC even plumbing and electrical i jave fixed all on my own with no training, just using common sense and doing research.
Working for a small mom and pop company is by far the best way to get started in HVAC. You learn so much more vs. working for a larger company in my opinion
So true, I started working for one last month and is only 5 of us so we can't really pick and choose the jobs, but what I like is that we do everything, It's good for gaining experience that way..
@@abcastillo3123I have a question for u bro, did you have prior experience before getting hired with them? Or did u js outreached with them and asked if they can take you in as an apprenticeship
I’m 22 years old and just got hired at this small company to get some experience. Thanks for this video man, you got straight to the point and it gave me more confidence that i can succeed in this field
D'andre Reaves. Congrats. No doubt you can succeed. But there will be obstacles and learning curves. #hit will get real. Stay composed as much as possible and weather the storm. Be humble. Develop strong work ethic right away. Surround self among good people and learn from them. Respect.
D'andre Reaves we are all nervous/scared when we try something new. If you’re ever nervous about something, that means that you might just be really great at it. Mike Tyson , one of the greatest fighters of all time admitted that he would be scared before his fight but once it started , he knew that nothing could stop him. You got this bro!
If your state requires a license then make sure your company has you on an apprenticeship. There are a lot of shady companies that’ll higher helpers under the pretext of an apprentice but never set you up with one and get rid of you after the busy season
28 year Hvac mechanic here. Senior tech, lead installer, electric license and I sell. I do it all. I usually can pick apart a lot of Hvac vids but I gotta say you are spot on my brotha! Great points and honest. These young bucks starting out have to understand they are helpers before they are even junior techs. When I came up you were a helper for 5 years. Same pay each year. Once five was up and you could bang out work, usually installing then you got a big pay bump. I love when the kids come out of school thinking they gonna run shit from the jump, yea carry my tools! Haha. Nah I don’t mind teaching either. One more point I would bring up is your social life is non existent during busy seasons. Mainly AC! Last thing Hvac field has a high divorce rate and unfortunately suicide rate. Not an easy field. It’s why companies can’t find workers. Great video. Good luck to you my Brotha!
Here is a tip for any one getting into the field. Do one year of installation. And one year of service. And then choose what is better for you. I have been doing this for over 20 years. never took a class. all hands on and people teaching me. simple as that. I just don't think you need to go to a tech school. I can train any one as an installer in less than a year. I can show people on how to diagnose symptoms and what to look for.
How did you get a job or training without having experience? Any recommendations? I’ve been looking for some but they all require some sort of training or certification.
@@edwingonzalez1222 When I first started I had a couple of friends that worked at an hvac company and they were looking for work. Experience or not. So if you have a friend or know some one that works at a company and you want to work and learn. More than likely that company will hire you. Hell maybe even apply for parts runner for Hvac business just to get you in the door. Get a Universal cfc certification. Alot of companies now will help you get a NATE certification. I don't need NATE since I have 25 yrs experience. take a class or GET a manual D for ductwork design. a "manual J" and/or class for heat load calculations.
I resonate with this! As an 18 year old with 80 years of experience working on Jupiter servicing alien tech to cool their tentacles, it’s the more satisfying than a drop of water in the Saharan desert!
I’ve been in HVAC for over 10 years now. I think guys will definitely do better if they do install first and then turn to the tech side. I started there and knowing how the system is supposed to be installed helps you find issues later on. About a year ago I moved to the sales side and I have to admit, sometimes I miss the field, but you’re 100% right. It takes a toll on the body and the mind. Don’t forget, it doesn’t pay to lie either. You can always find something wrong with a system or something that the system could use...but if your ass is lying, you aren’t going to get anywhere and you’ll get a crap reputation
How do I get into sales? I had my first day as a pre apprentice today and I’ll be honest, I’m really questioning it. It’s just so much. I’m never gonna give up but I really doubted myself all day.
Do yourself a favor and learn the trade. It took me a long time to feel comfortable. It’s worth having the knowledge. My time installing and servicing systems made me a better salesman
Tip 11: Avoid residential at all costs. Heavy commercial refrigeration is where the money is at. Get in with a supermarket company if you enjoy a challenge and don't mind the occasional stressful situation
Stick with it, never give up, think outside the box, and learn to work fast. And always be honest! I’m in just my 5th year as service tech....feels like longer..... It’s not the world’s hardest job. This stuff takes time to learn, but if you’re immersed in it the knowledge/experience will come. Thanks for the video!
It seems your driver is 'money', and not 'service'. As a retired mechanical engineer (HVAC & refrigeration) I appreciated your final comment, about your feeling of accomplishment, when you provide good service to a customer who really needs it. Point: Provide the good service and not only will you be paid, you will be requested.
Hey I'm at my local community college for Mechanical engineering.ill likely soon be working as an apprentice for HVAC. Do you know of any HVAC related companies that pay for employees to get a mechanical engineering degree at the University/Bachelors level.
@peter: I didn’t get that impression about money. Sure he mentions it a few times but he,IMO, balances with comments about service. Do your job well, treat people fairly and the money will come. I’ve tried to live my life by this and I’ve done fairly well.
Nobody wants to work for free. Whenever a person takes a job they want to be sure that it will benefit them as well. It should be a given that if you are dealing with customers that you want to treat them well. And money is very important. Who wants to struggle? Of course I want to know if I can take care of my family by doing this job. Otherwise, I am wasting my time.
I'm 25 and am looking into going to trade school for HVAC. I'm not expecting to be paid in silver and gold bars, but what I do expect is work, and high value work that will be consistent, and in demand. As a southerner, AC is the most important thing here so there will hardly be any shortage of work.
Lol I’m 21 and looking into this field. Would nice if you could share with me your journey. Which school did you attend and how was your experience? And how long did it take for you to find a job? Thank you
I just graduated HS and I’m enrolled in an HVAC training program in my community college, I have no experience on it, I didn’t really do any classes related to it in HS. What can I do in the meantime before the school year starts? Like what thing should I know or study?
Ive been a tech for almost a decade now, and if you want to make the most money and experience little to no "slow seasons" move to the north east and learn how to work on boilers, radiant heat and heat pumps.
I’m 21 and I haven’t really chose a career yet. Lot of things that interest me but I’m thinking being hvac technician. If you could please tell me more or link me an article on the careers you mentioned. Thank you
The best piece of advice I can give is never be too good for tech support, and don’t be afraid of not knowing something or asking for help. No one knows everything and we’ve all experienced problems we couldn’t figure out, and that’s okay
I am a current residential technician. let me add that for those of you who are going to go to school for this, when you come out, there will still be A LOT you dont know. do not be discouraged by that. it all comes with time. experience is the best teacher in this field. also, dont be that guy that doesnt wanna stay late and help out the other techs. that will ruin your career. (companies talk)
My young brother works for a hvac company, he had no experience but he was trained and he's well respected and has less then 2yrs. He's been getting job Offers but turns them down. In so proud of him. also great video and good luck to those chasing their dreams.
I didn’t even go to school and I’m making it happen. I did, however, have LOTS of mechanical abilities as an advanced auto technician, and lots of computer skills including programming. I got lucky, and got my foot in the door through my friend that worked as a clerical at a good HVAC company that was desperate for help. On the job training got me surpassing their best techs within a few years. Don’t give up.
Been doing Hvac for a little over 3 years now. I’ve came so far in the this field. Only way to get paid more is to true care about other and love what you do. Tech life It’s definitely more mental than physical but it’s still blood, sweat and tears.
Well said bro , need to keep going to school too. Every chance you get. Work on your weaknesses. The stuff you know well , just hone the skill. Work in service, installs and construction. As well as selling.Also learn some refrigeration . Remember that your character and attitude are big in this trade no matter what you do or where you come from. Lastly , it doesn’t hurt to know other trades. Especially carpentry, electrical and plumbing 👍😎 . I did all these. Currently I’m in South Florida 48 years old. I’ve been doing this 24+ years I came from up north 13 years ago. Currently on my selling technician. We have to walk a fine line between fixing or selling. Our focus is indoor air quality and comfort. You have to add value to the customers home or business. Don’t forget to mention you have to work on call hours in late hours generally 10 to 14 hours per day when it’s busy. With some weekends. Fortunately we alternate weekends because we have a lot of guys work.As for the comment with the girl below me a new a couple of really good girl techs They did plumbing and air conditioning.🙂
Give thanks super positive and straight to the root of the problem when asking are self’s if we should make the step ! Bless up I’m 35 and I searched this video because I feel I need something more stable in my life for work !
I'm 16 and was blessed with the opportunity to go into HVAC as a helper even though I don't have my driver's license and and haven't finished my GED yet but I have already finished my math portion. So I'm very excited to get into this field and I hope and pray everything goes well
@Oddwolf 799 You’re an idiot, before starting business you need some capital, where do you get that money for business? Where did you start it? Shut yo mouth man
I'm a technician, not a salesman. The large companies insist on sales. This is mainly for the residential side. You can ruin a good tech trying to make them salesman Ibelieve this young man explains the high point very well.
@@miguelandres2908 That depends on how you feel about what you do in this trade. I can turn a educated residential tech into a commercial tech, but not the other way around. There are many possible positions one could hold in the HVACR industry, but it's not for everyone. The point I'm trying to make, is learn the fundamental principles of this trade. And the first thing to master for Air conditioning and comfort heating is air properties. We could go on and on about this question.
Went to college and constantly kick myself for going into a degree field where the job opportunities are very limited/hard to reach. I'm 24 and currently thinking about going into HVAC, and currently have someone in the field who is willing to help me make that decision/even offering me on the job experience if I decide to go to school for it. Also, love the Star Wars reference! Thanks for the vid!
Go for it. I graduated from college with a BSBA. I went to trade to trade school a few months later and never looked back. I’ve been in the trade for about 8 years now. I make a very good living and everyday is different. Go for commercial if you do. Good techs are far and few between. Hustle, take chances and never stop learning and pushing yourself to grow and you will ALWAYS be in high demand. Good luck!
I am a girl trying to find a trade. My point is not to make the most money... I just don't really want to deal with humans. If it's just for a second to see what the problem is then that is totally okay with me. I am just trying to find a job where I can do my work and be left alone. Thanks for making this video, it gave me some more insight into this field.
@@tre12124 Well yeah actually. Thanks for asking. I'm getting a certificate in Video Production & Editing. I think it's exactly what I needed. Not really a trade I even knew existed but I am pretty confident this is where I'm supposed to be. 😀 I hope you find your niche too and can do what you actually want rather than settle for something you don't want. Best of luck!!
After time spent on researching HVAC your video was the most informative to me. Also people in the comments have helped motivate me into getting in the field. Thank you all.
Love this video thumbs up- I am a licensed contractor in Florida. I started off just like you. My father was a contractor, And now I have 30 years experience and my own company. Lots of hard work pays off. Never did I think I would have my own license. And here I am today-45 years old and calling all the shots!!!
I want to be like you. I am from Florida as well. In Orlando the college that I applied for HVAC said I'll owe 21,000 but 8500 with grants. BUT THE GOVERNMENT MADE A PROGRAM CALLED Jobcorps that I can attend and learn the trade for free 🤔. But I don't think I'll be able to have more benefits than the college like a NATE Certification,HVAC Excellence Certification,HVAC Quality Installation Standard, and every State or Local Licensing.
After 30 years under my belt I can truly say it’s been a great career- great money and a sense of accomplishment when the job is well done. With that being said it’s exactly what he said - it’s what you put into it - can be hard work at times - long hours but at the end it’s well worth it.
I love it. But just keep in mind if you get into supermarkets, the hours can be grueling. But being I’m 22 and single, I just figure I’ll take advantage of it while I can lol
I've been doing electrical work for 22 years just recently decided I want to make a change and start learning the HVAC field your videos are very helpful would speak into someone about getting into the field very good and educational information please keep making these videos I believe it's going to help a lot of people that are debating on getting into the trade keep up the great work
I just passed my interview for the hvac apprenticeship program at CITC. I hit number 3 on the list so I am going to be dispatched soon. Videos like these really help my understanding of whats to come in this career path.
I'm currently in Tech School with the Air Force. I'll be graduating in a month. I'm guard so I'll be applying for HVAC jobs very soon. Do you mind to share your interview experience with me? Mainly questions, how did it go, what should I expect?
I started the HVAC field 22 yrs ago straight outta high school, no official trades school for me, minus my time in the military and still did side work...while not downrange.... This trade is both hard on your body and mind having experience in installation, residential, light/heavy commercial, refrigeration and now chillers. I can say I absolutely hate my trade but it's always put food on the table and has helped me collect the wealth I enjoy today. With that said I'm gonna migrate into an office job...HVAC related of course...I'm just ready to be out the field for sure
Look into facilities management bro. FMP cert to start. Office work like a maintenance supervisor but spread across energy consumption, grounds, security ect. HVAC experience is probably the experience they are most sought after.
I have 22 years in the field and this my list that I never hear people tell the younger apprentices 1. It's always the apprentices fault even when it's not - don't take it personally 2. Get used to being called "the kid" or "kid" - again don't take it personally 3. If your journeyman tells you to get the pipe stretcher or a bucket of steam, he likes you, if he says nothing at all he probably doesn't 4. Don't buy Ryobi - have some self respect 5. Expect to work in pain - cuts & bruises are part of the job 6. Bring your journeyman a coffee every morning and your day will go much smoother 7. Don't be on your phone around your journeyman even if he's on his unless it's work related 8. Being an apprentice sucks but it's worth it in the end 9. You do not talk about fight club - just go with me on this one 10. MOST IMPORTANT TIP, carry a roll of toilet paper in your truck - when you need it you'll thank me
I just turned 20 yesterday June 4th. I got my associates in Biology not too long ago and my plan was to further my education and one day become a doctor. My Father is an electrician and he had given me the advice to look into this career in which I did and liked it. I want to get into this field and get the experience needed to one day eventually own my business (If that's possible). I am also in Florida so I think there is high demand here. I am willing to put the work and hopefully become a technician one day in the future. Thanks for the advice in the video man!
Been doing HVAC my whole life my Father was a Tech then we started a Company .... Im now 48 with a Beautiful Home and Family .... I was a dropout and worked my tail off to get these things so it can be done .... I decided to get out of the field and now work for Johnstone Supply as a Inside Sales and Store Tech and now my son is following my and my Father's footsteps and just finished his first year for a Friend of mine Company as a Installer .... You said it right its about keeping you head down and learning as much as you can and investing in tools that will make you $$ and your job easier
I got into heating and air, started as an installer, loved it! Now I fly through installs and service, I got all the best tools and make great money! I work for a company but also do a lot of private contracting! If you're the kind of person who learns quickly hands on and you have an entrepreneur attitude you will make great money in the six figures in most states around the United States!
@@YungHVAC yeah, cause people these days are either entitled and lazy or have an engineering degree and don't know how to use a screwdriver (I've seen this with many engineers (mechanical and electrical)). My neighbor just journeyed out with IBEW, about 6 months ago, and now makes mid 50s/hr + benefits. Without us, techs, everything in the world would cease to function. There are more jobs than qualified techs, easy to pick and choose the fields and industries you want to be a part of.
Way to go young man. My son may be headed to HVAC school next year. Based on your helpful message it seems like a no brained. I will remind him to sit in the front of the class!!
This is definitely a good field to be in. People will forever use Ac/ heating . And the more experience you get the higher you get paid. It has helped me live alittle more comfortably
@@YungHVAC No worries. Whatever you gained in college will help. You may be glad later. Pay off the debt as soon as you can. There are no free lunches which is a truth every educated person should know. There are a lot of good books about financial planning. Learning the trade will give a big boost up before you know it. We will be rooting for you. Go get em’!!
I watch a lot of videos and comment on very few. I am a retired technician in the food , pharmaceutical , and cosmetic industry. I installed and repaired equipment all over the world and your advice works for all Technicians. Very glad to see videos like this, keep up the good work and you will go as far as you want. Do good work and help those that will receive it.
Im 17 starting senior year this year and before that im getting into hvac recently had to go under a mobile home to remove ducts and put new ducts with a TY a 12in splitting into a 6in duct with a new unit and furnace
Just bought a new home and I just want the training to fix my own system. I was being charged an arm and a leg just to change my damper, so I did it myself thanks to youtube. Great video bro
Wicked proud of u for getting educated in a skilled trade to make a better life for yourself. To many people blame there lack of motivation on others. Thanks for making a difference.
The only other things you might add is that you will be constantly going to school nights to learn new things. The second is you will be dealing with managers rather than the public if you go into the commercial side.
As someone who's been scared shit less learning a new trade, I needed to know this. Thank you ! I was a cook for almost 12years and I needed some better money.
I’ve never had a slow season at the company I worked for. Never had rude customers, hell customers are always happy 😊 to see me when I pull up to the job site. My company supplied all the tools 🧰 I ever needed. Rarely have to work long hours unless it was a emergency 🚨 at a hospital or health care facility. Never had to up sell stuff ever to get more money 💵 or higher pay 💰. A lot of these things are based off your location and the company you work for. A lot of HVAC companies do not care about their employees and that’s fact.
Thanks for the tips man, I've got about a year left in the Marine corps and I was hoping to go into HVAC when I get out. Hopefully I can go into it and enjoy my job tbh. All I want is a job that I'd enjoy doing for a long time even if it doesn't pay well and trade jobs always interested me
Been doing thus for almost 10 years now....you'll never be out of work...its a multiskill trade....you'll know hvac basic plumbing and basic electrical...its the best thing anyone can get into
This video makes me so grateful for my job. I work directly under the owner of a contracting company; I think 4 people total on the payroll. He took me on as an (apprentice is the best word for it but I’m pretty sure that’s Union only and this ain’t that) and says fuck school and I kinda see why. We are on the commercial installation side of the job and yeah it is rough on the body but once you got it down it’s mint; we do some residential stuff but sub out a lot of it. I just started a few months ago and already i feel the experience alone is all you need if you work hard and want to learn. I can’t wait to be a tech in another year or two; that’s when things will really kick up. Ps get an impact if you don’t have one that’s crazy to me you didn’t already have one that was the first tool I bought a week into the job
I’ve really been debating if I should go to school for HVAC but after watching this video i know I’ve made my mind up. (First video I’ve seen by you lol)
Good luck in the field I went to school New Hampshire school mechanical trades. Graduated worked in HVAC got hurt. Went over to maintenance for facilities. My recommendation would be watch for the sales right around now Black Friday leftovers. Home Depot right now has quite a bit they always get rid of clearance items. The batteries alone right around now will save you hundreds. Don’t overcharge them and don’t leave them on the charger or in the tool Long term.
As a 20 yrs HVAC Technician...I have 3 things....1. keep up with technology....2. keep up with training..3..study other trades as well..specialized in HVAC but know the other trades as well...electrical, machinist/mechanic,carpentry,plumbing...etc..shoot I seen a diesel motor drive a freezer compressor...
Good video. Agree with it all. Been doing this 7 or 8 years and I can say in many parts of the country 100k/yr is EASILY possible. You might have to work a bit of overtime but it can be done. Tools are nice but they don't make the tech. If you don't have a good handle on the basics, the best tools are useless. One thing Inwant to tell the installers, please install with service in mind! You install it once, I have to service it for 20 or 30 years!
You have a great attitude. I am a licensed HVAC contractor but work as a Facilities Director for a school but wanting to teach HVAC and have been making sure my skills and technical knowledge are up to speed since I haven't worked in the field other than some side troubleshooting and repair work. I did have a company at one time but chose to work at a school with a steady check vs. feast or famine out there on your own and with kids I wanted the health insurance at the time, any been where I am 25 years. You have a great attitude and great personality for dealing with all the people in this industry including customers, I would hire you as I am sure your currently employer is happy to have you. Good luck!
Yung HVAC, I'm a little late to find your channel. I'm really impressed with your drive and determination. You live in a wonderful time as far as Hvac goes. Admittedly the technology can sometimes be intimidating but my advice is LEARN, LEARN AND LEARN some more. And for what's it's worth... try to get into a commercial Hvac company. In fact if the chance comes along join the fitters union. Nonetheless commercial is the way to go. I've been able to do everything from installation to Building Automation. I would do it all over again. I hope you have much success in the trade
Got lucky 2 months ago and was able to get a job as a install helper . Never expected to get in this trade , and here I am 2 months later installing acs by myself ! I love the job , the only thing I hate is getting in attics and doing duct work... but hey that’s the job right !
I like your comments in this video, something that I would like to add is; be ready for your retirement, eventhough you can work all your life, this job is too hard and when you turn 55 years old, you will be to burnt out that you want to retire and you have to be ready. I'm being a HVAC technicians since 1992, today I'm 58 years old and can say I'm semi-retired. I make it because I saved my money and paid off my house and I just work for some customers, that's it. Be cool!!! Thanks.
@@augustejoseph359 Sheridan Technical College in Hollywood, South Florida institute of Technology in Miami, Palm Beach County Community College and if you’re interested Indian River State in Port St. Lucie you can get an associates degree in hvac and they have dorms. Those are some places you could try out in south florida.
Also, remember if you can't afford school you can always enlist in the Air National guard (air force) and get paid to learn HVAC. I know a lot of guys who did this and got jobs right after their tech school training. So just look at options. Always a good place to start.
I wish somebody would’ve told me this leavjf. High school, I went to school for it but the teacher sucked, currently looking for a job, got 2 interviews Friday
Am a HVAC/REFRIGERATION. Tech ,and yes the beginning it's really hard coz in these trade no body tells you anything you have to work your way up , but now am independent. Got my CONTRACTORS LIC. And am very happy with it , all you have to do is trust in yours self ,and say i can doit. And you will. Good luck u 'll.
All truth my man! I'm hvac tech and yeah you're right about all of your tips! Hardest for me is pushing air cleaners and humidifiers and things and definitely the slow season. October to May is slow here in VA.
I also am from VA! What is your recombination on how I should start? Go to a local school? I found a local company that I could work for right away to help install and learn from Hvac techs with no college. Just not sure how far I could go without a degree. I also am 20 Years old and have no clue what I want to do! (Not sure what the pay will be at this job just know they are hiring apprentice position.) But if I am wanting to try it and see if it sticks because I still live at home currently going to community college and I hate the degree I'm working toward. I am so much more about hard work than schooling. I just personally think learning a Trade would be more beneficial to me in the long run than a degree. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
Thank you for being here. I start Monday at tech school and alot of emotions flowing . Im 40 but needed a change in life . I am excited about the future
I have worked and come up the same way your working on went to school was not the best student I was very immature my dad passed the very day I got my first hvac job, I got my jack ass in high gear ended up being paid very good as a service manager of a large hvac, plumbing, electrical company. Proud to see a younger generation with DRIVE you will go a long wall. No get after it😁
@@AmbiguousAndrew it’s a big community where everyone can talk about different things. It’s free . Think of it as a big group chat almost but more organized
just got my first job as a commercial service tech @ 19 years old here in Massachusetts. Im excited to learn and have the drive to be better everyday. I know its not always going to be easy and a cake walk. Im hoping to get a better understanding of everything. The technician im going to work with taught my father and he's doing very well for himself 4 years into the field. I'll try to update more on how things are going if anyone comments. start date is either the 14th or 21st of February 2022
I'm currently a student, I'm genuinely excited to graduate and pick a commercial type job. It's very true, what you put in is what you get. If things get hard take a breather. Focus and remember to always believe in yourself, and you can achieve greatness. If you don't understand something always ask. Or just watch more youtube videos until you ger it. Also I thought refrigerant was so weird to understand. Now I love it and to see how it can be manipulated into two different phases: Vapor and Liquid.
@Jeremiah Castillo yea thanks you i was already working for a hospital and I met a Hvac guy that owns a company and offer me a part time job thank God there is great people out there that my story
I've been studying HVAC in College for a year and my experience was challenging. Next year I will graduate college and then soon I will apply for an apprenticeship program to have more knowledge, more practice and more experience. The reason why I want ot be a HVAC Technician is because my late inspired me and I want to make big loads of money. Thanks for the 10 tips yung hvac. Keep it up!
I’m 22 now, been a service tech for a little over 2 years and getting into this field has been the best decision I have ever made. I bought a house at 21 and I’m now making a little over 100k a year. If you’re questioning whether or not to get into it, do it. Be willing and able to work and learn and you can do this. It’s not the easiest career, but it’s so worth it. It’s very rewarding.
Hey Nicholas, I’m currently the same age as you and although it may seem like I’ve wasted time, I’m ready for a career change. I’ve visited schools and am interested in the craft but also very nervous as I wasnt the brightest in my schooling career, and I’ve heard it’s necessary to read schematics and blue prints on my visits. I also know not a single thing about it but if the money is there I’m willing to do the work. Have you ever had second guesses as to which trade you should go into? Because for me unfortunately I’m not passionate about any trade but fell into a hole in life and see trades as a way out and see hvacr as one of the higher paying trades. any reply helps thanks.
@@Keithmmm yeah I had second thoughts, but I’ve learned to ignore that and just focus on what I do now. I’ve made it a priority to find reasons to enjoy it. And you haven’t wasted time, 22 is young. If you’re on the service/ diagnostic / repair side (I can only speak for residential work), then there are no blueprints. Schematic reading occasionally is helpful, but it’s extremely rarely necessary at all.
@@Keithmmm if it helps, I knew absolutely Jack shit about HVAC when I started. You’ll learn, it comes with a little time.
I turned 19 last month and im considering leaving college to go trade school for hvac(my major is undecided cause I didn’t know what I wanted to do) im in Florida btw, can you explain how you’re already making 100k and what I can do to get like you
@@nicholasmessersmith6187 how long was your school?
I just retired from 25 years of being a hvac technician. I'm 56 and can now take it easy. Just want to add that the HVAC industry more than just residential work, if you want to make a good living you can go into commercial HVAC field. Working on large equipment is more stressful and requires special training but can be very rewarding. It takes years of training both in the field and in the classroom but once you get there you will be highly skilled and you will be in demand.
Im 24 about to be 25. I'm going all in on this career. I'm tired of making a little above minimum and want a career where I can learn and grow from there.
@@MBJH17isbackonlyone Good luck. The problem I encountered was most small companies wanted 4 or 5 years experience before they would hire me and I was fresh out of technical college. But persistence pays off so don't let anyone tell you it will never happen because it will. Be willing to learn and show up for work early, ask lots of questions and don't be on your phone constantly. Try to find a mentor to work with you will learn faster but be patient. The more you learn the easier it will become so learn, learn and keep your skills growing.
Drew Blood great advice drew! Thank you for taking the time to pass those kind words on
I find commercial takes me to far from the family. School districts are the way to go. I work on Ems, units from 4ton bards to 500ton Trane chillers. I make good money and I got every benifit there is. And my job is not hard my average pace is like 1 blower motor every 8 hour shift.
@@MBJH17isbackonlyone ... get ready to crawl around small tight attics with high heat ... small crawl spaces in basements... we are called rafter rats or celler dwellers... and I hope your not scared with heights... im not trying to be a party pooper... just the facts... your body will take a beating... i started in residential... then switched to commercial/ industrial... i make ridiculous money! Good luck!!!! P.S...You must have mechanical ability or you won't last or won't advance (25yrs in the field/ management)... p.s.s... don't listen to Noah jaugs.... poor mindset!!
Damn, I watched this video 4 years ago when I thought about making the switch. I know have non- union residential, union residential, and full commercial experience. I start out out installing, maintenance, and now I am a commercial service tech. It’s incredibly how far I have come in such a short amount of time. Thank you! But man, this video is absolutely 110% accurate. I agree with all of it and could not explain it any better. Hope you are still out there man!
I’ll make sure to come back bro in 2-3 uears
How’s it’s going now ?
@@JoeJoe-gg9uc making 35$ an hour. Still doing commercial. Currently out on medical leave. Hurt my shoulder and received surgery. I love this trade, but it is hard on the body.
@@orange_ash6902 damn , is it still worth it ?
@@JoeJoe-gg9uc thinking about becoming a teacher or back to residential. But yeah absolutely
I’ve been in the field for over 8+ years and I’ve done very good for myself and worked very hard to get to where I am and I get bored every now and again and look up random videos about hvac (difficult diagnoses processes or even hearing peoples opinions/ tips on coming into the field) you have the most spot on examples and advice for some one come in and I want to tell you you that I respect you and you said everything I would have said to anyone asking about it . Keep it up and I hope you the best on everything you do man
Bro that quote “Start of as a padawan and one day you’ll be a Jedi” was so motivational
Bro i felt that too
Bro I love star wars haha .
Bro he right. Like thats how it go some people think you can just skip steps in life. That quote was fire 🔥
Don't work for any company that forces you to sell. The job is hard enough
I was basically the installation back bone of a company here in British Columbia.
Asked the boss about Unionizing, he threw a fit like a baby. Gave him 2 weeks notice and 2 weeks later they had filed for what the US would call chapter 7 bankruptcy.
Cya Eli, thanks for the shirt off your back.
Sometimes, you gotta get your foot in the door!
Me, I like sells.
An air conditioning unit, a burglary alarm system, a microwave oven, some freon gas.
Every trade!
Upselling is easy. Even the minimum wager have to upsell everyday. "Would you like a large drink and fry with that sir? " Its easy. Especially if your already in the customers home. Sell them a tune up or "new part " to continue making sure their system works.
@@xtrah8ed4life Bullshit, this is a trade, not a sales position.
@@themacocko6311 you can request a higher wage of they require you to do that. If they don't want to give it to you go apply somewhere that will. Life is not as hard as ppl make it seem
Great advice. I’m an installer in Vegas and one piece I’d add is that you can be afraid of heights (pack units) afraid of the heated attics (up to 140 degrees.) the hardest part of the job is the mental part. There will be times it gets so hot you feel like you’re going to pass out or blackout. Remember drink a lot of water, and NEVER DUMP ICE COLD WATER ON YOU AFTER GETTING OUT OF AN ATTIC. Easiest way to send yourself into shock. The money is really good from March/April through sept/October. Then it’s slow after. You still can make 60-80k a season installing. Maybe 15-20k off-season.
Hello, I’m in vegas too and I’m about to graduate highschool, I want to start my journey in hvac but I’m not sure where to start/apply, by any chance could you tell me where you applied ? Or how could I get started
Ayy i just moved to Vegas too and about to start NTI
@@triggered_5oh607 did you ever start school?
@@richisv3669 dont bother with school, go to every hvac company in your area and ask for a job aplication.
I’m a tech in vegas, bro. 2 story package units (not the houses than you can get up on the first level and walk up to the second) plays a total mess on your head. My worry is falling not even fixing the damn unit lol! good luck out there, be safe! If you’re looking to move to the service side let me know!
51 year old journeyman of almost 30 years ehre.. love seeing a young man get in the trade and promote it.not enough people getting into the trades these days. we have been telling kids for 50 years you can't make money with out a college education, here is a prime example of a young man proving that just because you don't go to college does not mean that you are locked out of a good career.
This comment is so true I'm 20 years old I'm trying to get my friends into it as well especially my friends younger than me also since you have alot of experience would you suggest writing down steps for certain procedures like Evacs,recoverys and sequence of operations if the tech has a hard time remembering the steps
I'm 46 and I've been working in factories for a long long time. Would this be a good pivot for me at my age? I made 46K last year, I need more than that.
@@six0sickfactories might lay off and leave. I would say go get trained. Its never too late to get a new job
As a master Commercial/ Industrial HVAC technician with 34 years experience you are exactly right!!
I work for one of the largest HVAC manufacturers in the world. In this career you will be an installer, service tech and a salesman if you expect to get to the top of your game. Learning every aspect of this business will drive up your worth throughout your career.
This career field has unlimited possibilities if you give it your all...
I also teach HVAC at our local trade school at night and try to instill this in the new techs!
I’ve always had a moto about my worth...”learn everything you can about this business....and sell it to the highest bidder”!
Glade to see young new talent!!!
I wish I could take your class
What location do you teach at?
I’m a current HVAC student. This video gave me hope, no lies school is pretty intense and I’m only in month 3. Learning to read schematics can feel overwhelming and actually tinkering with thermostats / ac units feels like I’m climbing a mountain with my bare hands. But this video made me feel better about myself and my dream of becoming a technician 15 months from now 🙏
Good luck in the field Rex I went to school New Hampshire school mechanical trades. Graduated worked in HVAC got hurt. Went over to maintenance for facilities. My recommendation would be watch for the sales right around now Black Friday leftovers. Home Depot right now has quite a bit they always get rid of clearance items. The batteries alone right around now will save you hundreds. Don’t overcharge them and don’t leave them on the charger or in the tool Long term.
How is it so far ?
What do u do now?
@@craigt9203 what about now?
Hello, i'm HVAC technician students, i need the based schematic
Been in the trade since 1984 when I entered a college Technologist program for HVAC. Did some mechanical estimating , sales and marketing early on and then went full bore into the trade .
I’m 55 now and still enjoy it but I’m feeling the workload more .
God Bless all who chose this Trade ✝️
at 55 you should be telling others what to do...not climbing into attics yourself...bro, you gots to delegate lol
I live in Florida and just made the decision to change at 33 years old from my desk job to something that will not only have great income potential but also will keep me physically active as well as provide me with the skills to be part of a trade that is a need in so many aspects of our lives.. I start school Monday and this video definitely helped me feel way more confident in my decision.. Thanks
I'm 35 and plan on starting school in March. Keep me updated on your progress.
I'm 23 and thinking about leaving fedex for this. How are you guys doing?
Don't do it.. summer season you have no life.. calls nonstop be home late go bsck in the morning
After a few years get the experience you will make big money 💰
I’m i Florida too def would suggest getting a helper job if possible as early as you can you learn wayyy more in the field than in school
I start HVAC school in August, I’m applying at a few locations for helpers now. I’m 20 years old and glad I found my passion for this young! Super dope channel man!
joseph santos wats up Joseph! Thanks for tuning in bro, you’re doing a good job of getting ahead , most people wait until the end to apply for jobs. If you can get in as a helper now , by the time you’re done with school, you may get moved up to a tech position with that company . That’s a good idea. I tried the same thing but I didn’t have any luck but it was the winter time . With the warm weather coming up, I’m sure you will find a spot bro! Keep me updated on everything bro !
Yung HVAC YOURE here now! Haha, but yea I’m super excited to start school, I love problem solving and am super excited I found HVAC. Keep up the channel man, I’m loving the content!
joseph santos haha you’re right and yea I’m the same way man. I’ve always been able to build things without instructions , solving problems and other little things that hinted at this kind of work and now that I’ve found it. It’s great! Thanks again for your support bro! Keep me updated on everything man !

Do you have to have a good mechanical understanding to be good at HVAC
David Herrera good question
Do you work for yourself or a company?
@@InfiniteDreamzxP it would help. Ive been a mechanic but wanting to get into HVAC/appliance repairs. It helps if you are mechanical inclined and know how to read schematics, and also how to be resource full. If you dont know an awnser know how to look up the information. Eveey issues in my home for ny appliances and HVAC even plumbing and electrical i jave fixed all on my own with no training, just using common sense and doing research.
Working for a small mom and pop company is by far the best way to get started in HVAC. You learn so much more vs. working for a larger company in my opinion
So true, I started working for one last month and is only 5 of us so we can't really pick and choose the jobs, but what I like is that we do everything, It's good for gaining experience that way..
@@abcastillo3123I have a question for u bro, did you have prior experience before getting hired with them? Or did u js outreached with them and asked if they can take you in as an apprenticeship
I’m 22 years old and just got hired at this small company to get some experience. Thanks for this video man, you got straight to the point and it gave me more confidence that i can succeed in this field
D'andre Reaves. Congrats. No doubt you can succeed. But there will be obstacles and learning curves. #hit will get real. Stay composed as much as possible and weather the storm. Be humble. Develop strong work ethic right away. Surround self among good people and learn from them. Respect.
Benjamin Lam will do man thanks for the words!
D'andre Reaves we are all nervous/scared when we try something new. If you’re ever nervous about something, that means that you might just be really great at it. Mike Tyson , one of the greatest fighters of all time admitted that he would be scared before his fight but once it started , he knew that nothing could stop him. You got this bro!
Yung HVAC much appreciated bro. Needed the words of encouragement! ✊🏽
If your state requires a license then make sure your company has you on an apprenticeship. There are a lot of shady companies that’ll higher helpers under the pretext of an apprentice but never set you up with one and get rid of you after the busy season
28 year Hvac mechanic here. Senior tech, lead installer, electric license and I sell. I do it all. I usually can pick apart a lot of Hvac vids but I gotta say you are spot on my brotha! Great points and honest. These young bucks starting out have to understand they are helpers before they are even junior techs. When I came up you were a helper for 5 years. Same pay each year. Once five was up and you could bang out work, usually installing then you got a big pay bump. I love when the kids come out of school thinking they gonna run shit from the jump, yea carry my tools! Haha. Nah I don’t mind teaching either. One more point I would bring up is your social life is non existent during busy seasons. Mainly AC! Last thing Hvac field has a high divorce rate and unfortunately suicide rate. Not an easy field. It’s why companies can’t find workers. Great video. Good luck to you my Brotha!
I’m 16 and may take a 1 year hvac course at my school do you think I should get into it?
Here is a tip for any one getting into the field. Do one year of installation. And one year of service. And then choose what is better for you. I have been doing this for over 20 years. never took a class. all hands on and people teaching me. simple as that. I just don't think you need to go to a tech school. I can train any one as an installer in less than a year. I can show people on how to diagnose symptoms and what to look for.
what area are you in ?
@@guillermoloredo2057 NC
How did you get a job or training without having experience? Any recommendations? I’ve been looking for some but they all require some sort of training or certification.
@@edwingonzalez1222 When I first started I had a couple of friends that worked at an hvac company and they were looking for work. Experience or not. So if you have a friend or know some one that works at a company and you want to work and learn. More than likely that company will hire you. Hell maybe even apply for parts runner for Hvac business just to get you in the door. Get a Universal cfc certification. Alot of companies now will help you get a NATE certification. I don't need NATE since I have 25 yrs experience. take a class or GET a manual D for ductwork design. a "manual J" and/or class for heat load calculations.
I resonate with this! As an 18 year old with 80 years of experience working on Jupiter servicing alien tech to cool their tentacles, it’s the more satisfying than a drop of water in the Saharan desert!
I’ve been in HVAC for over 10 years now. I think guys will definitely do better if they do install first and then turn to the tech side. I started there and knowing how the system is supposed to be installed helps you find issues later on.
About a year ago I moved to the sales side and I have to admit, sometimes I miss the field, but you’re 100% right. It takes a toll on the body and the mind. Don’t forget, it doesn’t pay to lie either. You can always find something wrong with a system or something that the system could use...but if your ass is lying, you aren’t going to get anywhere and you’ll get a crap reputation
The Joy Of Putting With DL Moriarty I agree with you 100%. I’ve done alittle but of everything at the job I’m at now.
How do I get into sales? I had my first day as a pre apprentice today and I’ll be honest, I’m really questioning it. It’s just so much. I’m never gonna give up but I really doubted myself all day.
Do yourself a favor and learn the trade. It took me a long time to feel comfortable.
It’s worth having the knowledge. My time installing and servicing systems made me a better salesman

It seems your driver is 'money', and not 'service'. As a retired mechanical engineer (HVAC & refrigeration) I appreciated your final comment, about your feeling of accomplishment, when you provide good service to a customer who really needs it. Point: Provide the good service and not only will you be paid, you will be requested.
Hey I'm at my local community college for Mechanical engineering.ill likely soon be working as an apprentice for HVAC. Do you know of any HVAC related companies that pay for employees to get a mechanical engineering degree at the University/Bachelors level.
@@semimaky check with your teachers and your college counselors.
@peter: I didn’t get that impression about money. Sure he mentions it a few times but he,IMO, balances with comments about service. Do your job well, treat people fairly and the money will come. I’ve tried to live my life by this and I’ve done fairly well.
Nobody wants to work for free. Whenever a person takes a job they want to be sure that it will benefit them as well. It should be a given that if you are dealing with customers that you want to treat them well. And money is very important. Who wants to struggle? Of course I want to know if I can take care of my family by doing this job. Otherwise, I am wasting my time.
I'm 25 and am looking into going to trade school for HVAC. I'm not expecting to be paid in silver and gold bars, but what I do expect is work, and high value work that will be consistent, and in demand. As a southerner, AC is the most important thing here so there will hardly be any shortage of work.
I'm 21 and I've been a HVAC tech for almost 2 years already, I love what I do, both install and maintenance on units.

I’m 21 and I haven’t really chose a career yet. Lot of things that interest me but I’m thinking being hvac technician. If you could please tell me more or link me an article on the careers you mentioned. Thank you
I started at a used appliance place when I was 18. I've been in the AC business now for 30 years. It's a rockstar living!
Kerry Potts that’s wats up! Keep killing it!!
What’s a rough number you would say you have made
The best piece of advice I can give is never be too good for tech support, and don’t be afraid of not knowing something or asking for help. No one knows everything and we’ve all experienced problems we couldn’t figure out, and that’s okay
I am a current residential technician. let me add that for those of you who are going to go to school for this, when you come out, there will still be A LOT you dont know. do not be discouraged by that. it all comes with time. experience is the best teacher in this field. also, dont be that guy that doesnt wanna stay late and help out the other techs. that will ruin your career. (companies talk)
My young brother works for a hvac company, he had no experience but he was trained and he's well respected and has less then 2yrs. He's been getting job Offers but turns them down. In so proud of him. also great video and good luck to those chasing their dreams.
i’m in highschool and i’m blessed to have a hvac class but shit hard asf, but i definitely needed to hear this
I didn’t even go to school and I’m making it happen. I did, however, have LOTS of mechanical abilities as an advanced auto technician, and lots of computer skills including programming. I got lucky, and got my foot in the door through my friend that worked as a clerical at a good HVAC company that was desperate for help. On the job training got me surpassing their best techs within a few years. Don’t give up.
Been doing Hvac for a little over 3 years now. I’ve came so far in the this field. Only way to get paid more is to true care about other and love what you do. Tech life It’s definitely more mental than physical but it’s still blood, sweat and tears.
Yessir!!!
Well said bro , need to keep going to school too. Every chance you get. Work on your weaknesses. The stuff you know well , just hone the skill. Work in service, installs and construction. As well as selling.Also learn some refrigeration . Remember that your character and attitude are big in this trade no matter what you do or where you come from. Lastly , it doesn’t hurt to know other trades. Especially carpentry, electrical and plumbing 👍😎 . I did all these. Currently I’m in South Florida 48 years old. I’ve been doing this 24+ years I came from up north 13 years ago. Currently on my selling technician. We have to walk a fine line between fixing or selling. Our focus is indoor air quality and comfort. You have to add value to the customers home or business. Don’t forget to mention you have to work on call hours in late hours generally 10 to 14 hours per day when it’s busy. With some weekends. Fortunately we alternate weekends because we have a lot of guys work.As for the comment with the girl below me a new a couple of really good girl techs They did plumbing and air conditioning.🙂
jerry lockhart wats up Jerry! Wow man thanks for the great comment man. Everything you said is 100% true and very helpful.! 🙌🏾
"Its kinda like a star wars thing, you start off as a padawan and someday you'll be a Jedi" Greatest analogy ever 🤣
Crimin4L haha really. Gotta be one with the refrigerant lol!
Give thanks super positive and straight to the root of the problem when asking are self’s if we should make the step ! Bless up I’m 35 and I searched this video because I feel I need something more stable in my life for work !
I'm 16 and was blessed with the opportunity to go into HVAC as a helper even though I don't have my driver's license and and haven't finished my GED yet but I have already finished my math portion. So I'm very excited to get into this field and I hope and pray everything goes well
@Oddwolf 799 nope so far it has been 100% worth it🤷🏻
Do you need your GED to get this program?
Congratulations, I am 38 I got in at 18. It was one of my greatest decisions, good luck.
@Oddwolf 799 like? Office job? Ha
@Oddwolf 799 You’re an idiot, before starting business you need some capital, where do you get that money for business? Where did you start it? Shut yo mouth man
HVAC technicians rock and are saving the world one day at a time, you spoke well, it was very educational
I'm a technician, not a salesman. The large companies insist on sales. This is mainly for the residential side. You can ruin a good tech trying to make them salesman Ibelieve this young man explains the high point very well.
is it better to go residential or commercial ?
@@miguelandres2908 That depends on how you feel about what you do in this trade. I can turn a educated residential tech into a commercial tech, but not the other way around. There are many possible positions one could hold in the HVACR industry, but it's not for everyone. The point I'm trying to make, is learn the fundamental principles of this trade. And the first thing to master for Air conditioning and comfort heating is air properties. We could go on and on about this question.
Brad Murray I applied for HVAC Service Technicians, Apprentice for residential today
Went to college and constantly kick myself for going into a degree field where the job opportunities are very limited/hard to reach. I'm 24 and currently thinking about going into HVAC, and currently have someone in the field who is willing to help me make that decision/even offering me on the job experience if I decide to go to school for it. Also, love the Star Wars reference! Thanks for the vid!
im 25 im starting schoo next month for it
I just graduated and I feel you. College is a scam
Go for it. I graduated from college with a BSBA. I went to trade to trade school a few months later and never looked back. I’ve been in the trade for about 8 years now. I make a very good living and everyday is different. Go for commercial if you do. Good techs are far and few between. Hustle, take chances and never stop learning and pushing yourself to grow and you will ALWAYS be in high demand. Good luck!
@@MK4vDubbin for hvac?
@kaylab2517
update?
Im a service tech on industrial compressors, very taxing on the mind and physical, with a great company and it’s rewarding to fix/do PMS!
Logan Chodacki that sounds sweet man!
Patience is key. Been in the business five years and am just now to the point where I’m not having to make phone calls anymore.
I am a girl trying to find a trade. My point is not to make the most money... I just don't really want to deal with humans. If it's just for a second to see what the problem is then that is totally okay with me. I am just trying to find a job where I can do my work and be left alone. Thanks for making this video, it gave me some more insight into this field.
In the same boat. Did u find anything?
@@tre12124 Well yeah actually. Thanks for asking.
I'm getting a certificate in Video Production & Editing. I think it's exactly what I needed.
Not really a trade I even knew existed but I am pretty confident this is where I'm supposed to be. 😀
I hope you find your niche too and can do what you actually want rather than settle for something you don't want. Best of luck!!
@@Melbot103 wow good for you! Good luck and thank you 🌺
Learn to program. Better pay, less customers
After time spent on researching HVAC your video was the most informative to me. Also people in the comments have helped motivate me into getting in the field. Thank you all.
Love this video thumbs up- I am a licensed contractor in Florida. I started off just like you. My father was a contractor, And now I have 30 years experience and my own company. Lots of hard work pays off. Never did I think I would have my own license. And here I am today-45 years old and calling all the shots!!!
First off thanks for the support!!! And wow dude that’s my goal for the future is to maybe have my own company also. Thanks for those kind words man
I want to be like you. I am from Florida as well. In Orlando the college that I applied for HVAC said I'll owe 21,000 but 8500 with grants. BUT THE GOVERNMENT MADE A PROGRAM CALLED Jobcorps that I can attend and learn the trade for free 🤔. But I don't think I'll be able to have more benefits than the college like a NATE Certification,HVAC Excellence Certification,HVAC Quality Installation Standard, and every State or Local Licensing.
After 30 years under my belt I can truly say it’s been a great career- great money and a sense of accomplishment when the job is well done. With that being said it’s exactly what he said - it’s what you put into it - can be hard work at times - long hours but at the end it’s well worth it.
God bless you and your family, good job mate!👏👍
I do supermarket refrigeration. There is no slow season lol
Wats up Ashton! Wow so you’re getting that money all year!
Ashton Lanier How do you like it? I’m a recently got HVAC certification but trying to get into refrigeration, any feedback?
When you get into commercial and industrial HVAC/R there is no slow season
I love it. But just keep in mind if you get into supermarkets, the hours can be grueling. But being I’m 22 and single, I just figure I’ll take advantage of it while I can lol
That’s cool Ashton. How did you learn refrigeration? Did your company provide training for you?
I've been doing electrical work for 22 years just recently decided I want to make a change and start learning the HVAC field your videos are very helpful would speak into someone about getting into the field very good and educational information please keep making these videos I believe it's going to help a lot of people that are debating on getting into the trade keep up the great work
What's easier to comprehend. The electrical field or the hvac? I know they're both electrical. But which one is easier to retain?
I just passed my interview for the hvac apprenticeship program at CITC. I hit number 3 on the list so I am going to be dispatched soon. Videos like these really help my understanding of whats to come in this career path.
Joey's Car Seat good job Joey ! Keep me posted on that .
I'm currently in Tech School with the Air Force. I'll be graduating in a month. I'm guard so I'll be applying for HVAC jobs very soon. Do you mind to share your interview experience with me? Mainly questions, how did it go, what should I expect?
Good stuff man. This gave me more courage in attempting HVAC.
Do it bro!
Go for it bro . I’m 24 with 3 years experience doing hvac it’s pay very well
@@hazoleos5325 great bro
@@duudiefilms9895 I’m thinking bout doing. My community college offers . I heard it’s 0 tuition, a free class . I’m thinking bout taking it.
@@duudiefilms9895 how is the work to life ratio? I'm 18 and considering getting in the hvac program but I don't wanna work my life away.
I started the HVAC field 22 yrs ago straight outta high school, no official trades school for me, minus my time in the military and still did side work...while not downrange....
This trade is both hard on your body and mind having experience in installation, residential, light/heavy commercial, refrigeration and now chillers. I can say I absolutely hate my trade but it's always put food on the table and has helped me collect the wealth I enjoy today. With that said I'm gonna migrate into an office job...HVAC related of course...I'm just ready to be out the field for sure
Look into facilities management bro. FMP cert to start. Office work like a maintenance supervisor but spread across energy consumption, grounds, security ect. HVAC experience is probably the experience they are most sought after.
I have 22 years in the field and this my list that I never hear people tell the younger apprentices
1. It's always the apprentices fault even when it's not - don't take it personally
2. Get used to being called "the kid" or "kid" - again don't take it personally
3. If your journeyman tells you to get the pipe stretcher or a bucket of steam, he likes you, if he says nothing at all he probably doesn't
4. Don't buy Ryobi - have some self respect
5. Expect to work in pain - cuts & bruises are part of the job
6. Bring your journeyman a coffee every morning and your day will go much smoother
7. Don't be on your phone around your journeyman even if he's on his unless it's work related
8. Being an apprentice sucks but it's worth it in the end
9. You do not talk about fight club - just go with me on this one
10. MOST IMPORTANT TIP, carry a roll of toilet paper in your truck - when you need it you'll thank me
I just turned 20 yesterday June 4th. I got my associates in Biology not too long ago and my plan was to further my education and one day become a doctor. My Father is an electrician and he had given me the advice to look into this career in which I did and liked it. I want to get into this field and get the experience needed to one day eventually own my business (If that's possible). I am also in Florida so I think there is high demand here. I am willing to put the work and hopefully become a technician one day in the future. Thanks for the advice in the video man!
Biology? Your dad paid for a degree, now you are not going to use it? You really need to pay him back for that.
Been doing HVAC my whole life my Father was a Tech then we started a Company .... Im now 48 with a Beautiful Home and Family .... I was a dropout and worked my tail off to get these things so it can be done .... I decided to get out of the field and now work for Johnstone Supply as a Inside Sales and Store Tech and now my son is following my and my Father's footsteps and just finished his first year for a Friend of mine Company as a Installer .... You said it right its about keeping you head down and learning as much as you can and investing in tools that will make you $$ and your job easier
I got into heating and air, started as an installer, loved it! Now I fly through installs and service, I got all the best tools and make great money! I work for a company but also do a lot of private contracting! If you're the kind of person who learns quickly hands on and you have an entrepreneur attitude you will make great money in the six figures in most states around the United States!
What company do you work for ?
I'm an industrial machine/automation tech., been doing this for 15 years now. With the right company and the right individual with the right mind,
Brad Moore that sounds pretty interesting. You don’t meet a lot of people in that niche
@@YungHVAC yeah, cause people these days are either entitled and lazy or have an engineering degree and don't know how to use a screwdriver (I've seen this with many engineers (mechanical and electrical)).
My neighbor just journeyed out with IBEW, about 6 months ago, and now makes mid 50s/hr + benefits.
Without us, techs, everything in the world would cease to function. There are more jobs than qualified techs, easy to pick and choose the fields and industries you want to be a part of.
Way to go young man. My son may be headed to HVAC school next year. Based on your helpful message it seems like a no brained. I will remind him to sit in the front of the class!!
This is definitely a good field to be in. People will forever use Ac/ heating . And the more experience you get the higher you get paid. It has helped me live alittle more comfortably
You are an American hero in my book. Thanks for doing the duty and showing the way
I was never informed of my decisions so I went to college and now I owe about 15k lol
@@YungHVAC No worries. Whatever you gained in college will help. You may be glad later. Pay off the debt as soon as you can. There are no free lunches which is a truth every educated person should know. There are a lot of good books about financial planning. Learning the trade will give a big boost up before you know it. We will be rooting for you. Go get em’!!
I watch a lot of videos and comment on very few. I am a retired technician in the food , pharmaceutical , and cosmetic industry. I installed and repaired equipment all over the world and your advice works for all Technicians. Very glad to see videos like this, keep up the good work and you will go as far as you want. Do good work and help those that will receive it.
Im 17 starting senior year this year and before that im getting into hvac recently had to go under a mobile home to remove ducts and put new ducts with a TY a 12in splitting into a 6in duct with a new unit and furnace
Just bought a new home and I just want the training to fix my own system. I was being charged an arm and a leg just to change my damper, so I did it myself thanks to youtube. Great video bro
Wicked proud of u for getting educated in a skilled trade to make a better life for yourself. To many people blame there lack of motivation on others. Thanks for making a difference.
Tim S. Thanks for your support Tim !
Powerful words my man, I’m starting a hvac job on the 20th
The only other things you might add is that you will be constantly going to school nights to learn new things. The second is you will be dealing with managers rather than the public if you go into the commercial side.
As someone who's been scared shit less learning a new trade, I needed to know this. Thank you ! I was a cook for almost 12years and I needed some better money.
Everything is mental once we get over that and getting proper training will be all good. Get physical health
I’m about to be 30 and considering Hvac. Just hoping it goes well.
I’ve never had a slow season at the company I worked for. Never had rude customers, hell customers are always happy 😊 to see me when I pull up to the job site. My company supplied all the tools 🧰 I ever needed. Rarely have to work long hours unless it was a emergency 🚨 at a hospital or health care facility. Never had to up sell stuff ever to get more money 💵 or higher pay 💰. A lot of these things are based off your location and the company you work for. A lot of HVAC companies do not care about their employees and that’s fact.
kilomover8890 great input! Thank you for sharing that. You made a lot of valid points!
Yung HVAC keep up the good work in the industry and stay safe while doing it.
Installing is a great place to start. I honestly feel like everyone should get the best of install before being a tech
Thanks for the tips man, I've got about a year left in the Marine corps and I was hoping to go into HVAC when I get out. Hopefully I can go into it and enjoy my job tbh. All I want is a job that I'd enjoy doing for a long time even if it doesn't pay well and trade jobs always interested me
Hey did you ever get into this field? I’m in the Army and I’m thinking about getting out.
did you ever become a hvac technician?
Been doing thus for almost 10 years now....you'll never be out of work...its a multiskill trade....you'll know hvac basic plumbing and basic electrical...its the best thing anyone can get into
What do u do?
Nice seeing this advice from another Brother 💪🏾. Good shit bro , deff helped with my decision
Yodr P thanks for tuning in bro! What decision did you have to make?
This video makes me so grateful for my job. I work directly under the owner of a contracting company; I think 4 people total on the payroll. He took me on as an (apprentice is the best word for it but I’m pretty sure that’s Union only and this ain’t that) and says fuck school and I kinda see why. We are on the commercial installation side of the job and yeah it is rough on the body but once you got it down it’s mint; we do some residential stuff but sub out a lot of it. I just started a few months ago and already i feel the experience alone is all you need if you work hard and want to learn. I can’t wait to be a tech in another year or two; that’s when things will really kick up.
Ps get an impact if you don’t have one that’s crazy to me you didn’t already have one that was the first tool I bought a week into the job
I’ve really been debating if I should go to school for HVAC but after watching this video i know I’ve made my mind up. (First video I’ve seen by you lol)
Congrats brother ! Let me know how everything goes
Awesome advice! I loved the Star Wars analogy. Nobody just starts a new career at the Master level. Gotta work your way up!
Love this content brother! Im in the hvac tech school rn and everything youve said is what we’ve covered so far at the school program! Great advice!
Good luck in the field I went to school New Hampshire school mechanical trades. Graduated worked in HVAC got hurt. Went over to maintenance for facilities. My recommendation would be watch for the sales right around now Black Friday leftovers. Home Depot right now has quite a bit they always get rid of clearance items. The batteries alone right around now will save you hundreds. Don’t overcharge them and don’t leave them on the charger or in the tool Long term.
As a 20 yrs HVAC Technician...I have 3 things....1. keep up with technology....2. keep up with training..3..study other trades as well..specialized in HVAC but know the other trades as well...electrical, machinist/mechanic,carpentry,plumbing...etc..shoot I seen a diesel motor drive a freezer compressor...
Good video. Agree with it all. Been doing this 7 or 8 years and I can say in many parts of the country 100k/yr is EASILY possible. You might have to work a bit of overtime but it can be done.
Tools are nice but they don't make the tech. If you don't have a good handle on the basics, the best tools are useless.
One thing Inwant to tell the installers, please install with service in mind! You install it once, I have to service it for 20 or 30 years!
You have a great attitude. I am a licensed HVAC contractor but work as a Facilities Director for a school but wanting to teach HVAC and have been making sure my skills and technical knowledge are up to speed since I haven't worked in the field other than some side troubleshooting and repair work. I did have a company at one time but chose to work at a school with a steady check vs. feast or famine out there on your own and with kids I wanted the health insurance at the time, any been where I am 25 years. You have a great attitude and great personality for dealing with all the people in this industry including customers, I would hire you as I am sure your currently employer is happy to have you. Good luck!
Yung HVAC, I'm a little late to find your channel. I'm really impressed with your drive and determination. You live in a wonderful time as far as Hvac goes. Admittedly the technology can sometimes be intimidating but my advice is LEARN, LEARN AND LEARN some more. And for what's it's worth... try to get into a commercial Hvac company. In fact if the chance comes along join the fitters union. Nonetheless commercial is the way to go.
I've been able to do everything from installation to Building Automation. I would do it all over again. I hope you have much success in the trade
Jll Test thanks for the great ideas !! I appreciate your support !
Fitters union?
The "you can do it" part really helps, thank you.
Thank you Derick. I appreciate the video. Its helped me make a better decision on pulling through. God bless you and the family. Love man
I'm glad you use the word hungry to describe yourself because that's what it takes to really improve. hunger
Got lucky 2 months ago and was able to get a job as a install helper . Never expected to get in this trade , and here I am 2 months later installing acs by myself ! I love the job , the only thing I hate is getting in attics and doing duct work... but hey that’s the job right !
Money wise is it worth it and can u explain a little on the attic duct work situation
I like your comments in this video, something that I would like to add is; be ready for your retirement, eventhough you can work all your life, this job is too hard and when you turn 55 years old, you will be to burnt out that you want to retire and you have to be ready. I'm being a HVAC technicians since 1992, today I'm 58 years old and can say I'm semi-retired. I make it because I saved my money and paid off my house and I just work for some customers, that's it.
Be cool!!!
Thanks.
Do you live in a nice house do you make as much money as they say you do
I’m in south Florida it’s summer all year long never really slow
Where in south Florida? I'm in Broward do you know of a good school that's worth it?
@@augustejoseph359 Sheridan Technical College in Hollywood, South Florida institute of Technology in Miami, Palm Beach County Community College and if you’re interested Indian River State in Port St. Lucie you can get an associates degree in hvac and they have dorms. Those are some places you could try out in south florida.
I just finished school and thank you for giving me the in out on becoming a HVACK technician in the trade on the job training.
Also, remember if you can't afford school you can always enlist in the Air National guard (air force) and get paid to learn HVAC. I know a lot of guys who did this and got jobs right after their tech school training. So just look at options. Always a good place to start.
I wish somebody would’ve told me this leavjf. High school, I went to school for it but the teacher sucked, currently looking for a job, got 2 interviews Friday
Am a HVAC/REFRIGERATION. Tech ,and yes the beginning it's really hard coz in these trade no body tells you anything you have to work your way up , but now am independent. Got my CONTRACTORS LIC. And am very happy with it , all you have to do is trust in yours self ,and say i can doit. And you will. Good luck u 'll.
All truth my man! I'm hvac tech and yeah you're right about all of your tips! Hardest for me is pushing air cleaners and humidifiers and things and definitely the slow season. October to May is slow here in VA.
I also am from VA! What is your recombination on how I should start? Go to a local school? I found a local company that I could work for right away to help install and learn from Hvac techs with no college. Just not sure how far I could go without a degree. I also am 20 Years old and have no clue what I want to do! (Not sure what the pay will be at this job just know they are hiring apprentice position.) But if I am wanting to try it and see if it sticks because I still live at home currently going to community college and I hate the degree I'm working toward. I am so much more about hard work than schooling. I just personally think learning a Trade would be more beneficial to me in the long run than a degree. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
Thank you for being here. I start Monday at tech school and alot of emotions flowing . Im 40 but needed a change in life . I am excited about the future
How’s it going after 1 year in hvac?
I'm really looking forward to getting into this field. This helped me visualize A lot!! Thank You!!!

I have worked and come up the same way your working on went to school was not the best student I was very immature my dad passed the very day I got my first hvac job, I got my jack ass in high gear ended up being paid very good as a service manager of a large hvac, plumbing, electrical company. Proud to see a younger generation with DRIVE you will go a long wall. No get after it😁

I know its not always going to be easy and a cake walk. Im hoping to get a better understanding of everything. The technician im going to work with taught my father and he's doing very well for himself 4 years into the field. I'll try to update more on how things are going if anyone comments.
start date is either the 14th or 21st of February 2022
How’s it going
Waiting for the update man. How’d it go for you?
I'm currently a student, I'm genuinely excited to graduate and pick a commercial type job. It's very true, what you put in is what you get. If things get hard take a breather. Focus and remember to always believe in yourself, and you can achieve greatness. If you don't understand something always ask. Or just watch more youtube videos until you ger it. Also I thought refrigerant was so weird to understand. Now I love it and to see how it can be manipulated into two different phases: Vapor and Liquid.
Thanks I still got 2 semesters of school and this will help
@Jeremiah Castillo yea thanks you i was already working for a hospital and I met a Hvac guy that owns a company and offer me a part time job thank God there is great people out there that my story
I've been studying HVAC in College for a year and my experience was challenging. Next year I will graduate college and then soon I will apply for an apprenticeship program to have more knowledge, more practice and more experience. The reason why I want ot be a HVAC Technician is because my late inspired me and I want to make big loads of money. Thanks for the 10 tips yung hvac. Keep it up!
