IMMEDIATE FULL-TIME OPENING
HVAC Technician
Hands-On Installation, Service, and Maintenance Support
Employer: Inspiratus Construction LLC
Location: Bland County Virginia
Schedule: 40 hours guaranteed, Monday-Friday
The Opportunity
Inspiratus Construction LLC is hiring an HVAC Technician with one to three years of field experience. You will work directly under our HVAC Department Head, and support new construction installation, preventive maintenance, troubleshooting, and repair across the facilities we own and operate. This is a hands-on role for a dependable technician who wants steady work, practical mentorship, and a clear path to greater independence.
Why This Role Is Different
Unlike a traditional HVAC contractor, we develop, maintain and improve facilities that we own and operate. The portfolio includes wellness resorts, hospitality and lodging facilities, employee housing, commercial kitchens, agricultural operations, recreational facilities, and active new construction projects. You will work on varied systems and see how good installation and maintenance affect their performance over time.
Responsibilities
- Assist with HVAC installation, preventive maintenance, service, diagnostics, and repair.
- Complete assigned work carefully, follow established priorities, and ask questions when the scope or diagnosis is unclear.
- Perform routine inspections and maintenance, including filter changes, coil and drain cleaning, equipment checks, and basic service documentation.
- Support work on heating, cooling, ventilation, refrigeration, gas-fired, and related mechanical systems within your training and certification.
- Work with package units, heat pumps, mini-splits, forced-air systems, ductwork, thermostats, controls, ERVs and fresh-air systems, and facility equipment.
- Help troubleshoot electrical, mechanical, airflow, control, and refrigerant issues under the direction of the HVAC Department Head.
- Assist with equipment setting, ductwork, line sets, condensate, approved control connections, and start-up checklists.
- Gather parts and materials, report shortages, and help keep commonly used inventory accurate and organized.
- Develop stronger diagnostic and installation skills through field coaching, manufacturer guidance, and company-supported training.
- Communicate professionally with site staff, facility operators, and other trades.
- Keep tools, work areas, warehouse space, parts, clean, safe, and organized.
- Support related construction and facility work when priorities require and the assigned work is within your ability and training.
- Help with rare evening, weekend, or emergency facility needs when requested and available.
Required Qualifications
- One to three years of HVAC service, installation, or facility-maintenance experience.
- Working knowledge of basic HVAC tools, components, maintenance procedures, and jobsite safety practices.
- Ability to follow direction, accept field coaching, and complete assigned work without sacrificing safety or workmanship.
- Basic troubleshooting ability and the judgment to stop and ask for help before working beyond your training or authorization.
- Ability to read basic wiring diagrams, equipment labels, installation instructions, and service manuals.
- Valid driver's license and an acceptable driving record.
- Dependable attendance, clear communication, accurate records, and professional conduct at occupied facilities.
- Ability to work on ladders, in mechanical rooms and confined spaces, outdoors, and to safely move trade tools and equipment.
Preferred Experience
- EPA Section 608 certification, preferably Universal. If not yet certified, you must earn the appropriate certification before performing refrigerant work independently.
- Trade-school training or experience with heat pumps, package units, mini-splits, gas equipment, ventilation, refrigeration, controls, or commercial kitchen equipment.
- Experience in hospitality, residential, commercial, construction, or facility-maintenance environments.
- Interest in earning NATE, manufacturer, controls, refrigeration, or other relevant technical certifications.
Schedule and Work Environment
Full-time, in-person field position based from 119 Progress Drive in Bastian. Forty hours are guaranteed. Additional approved hours are generally available up to approximately 48 hours at the employee's choice. Work is primarily Monday-Friday with rare evening, weekend, or emergency response.
Compensation and Benefits
- Company-supported tools and necessary equipment.
- Training, licensing, and certification reimbursement for approved programs.
- Field coaching from the HVAC Department Head and more independent work as skills develop.
- Overtime paid in accordance with applicable law; overtime must be approved in advance except for a genuine emergency.
- Year-round work, home most nights and weekends, and room to advance within a growing HVAC department.
Who Will Succeed Here
This role is best for an early-career technician who takes pride in reliable work and wants to keep learning. You should be comfortable taking direction, working in occupied facilities, helping with varied systems, and building the judgment needed to handle more work independently over time.

What Employers Look For
The qualifications that appear most often in heating air conditioning mechanic jobs.
- EPA 608 Universal certification required for handling refrigerants across equipment types
- Minimum two to five years of hands-on HVAC installation, service, or repair experience
- Valid driver's license and clean driving record for operating a company service vehicle
- Proficiency reading electrical wiring diagrams and mechanical schematics
- NATE certification preferred or required for commercial and new construction roles
- Physical ability to lift heavy equipment and work in confined spaces or at heights
Tips for Your Heating Air Conditioning Mechanic Job Search
List every EPA certification you hold
Your EPA 608 certification type matters to employers, so specify Section 608 Type I, II, III, or Universal on your resume. Many applicants list only '608 certified' and get filtered out when a posting requires Universal certification for large commercial equipment.
Highlight commercial versus residential experience separately
Employers in commercial facilities and new construction look for different skills than residential service companies. Break your experience into two clear categories so a hiring manager can instantly see whether your background matches their environment without reading every bullet.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists heating air conditioning mechanic openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Name the brands and equipment you have serviced
Calling out specific manufacturers like Carrier, Trane, Lennox, or Daikin tells employers whether you already know the equipment on their service routes. Generic phrases like 'various HVAC systems' do not give hiring managers the specificity they need to make a quick decision.
Prepare for practical skills assessments before interviews
Many HVAC employers run a shop walk-through or hands-on diagnostic test before the formal interview. Expect to be asked to identify a refrigerant leak, read a wiring diagram, or explain a sequence of operations on a rooftop unit you have not seen before.
Negotiate tool and vehicle allowances alongside pay
Service technician offers often include truck, fuel, and tool stipends that vary significantly between employers. Ask specifically what is provided, what you must supply yourself, and whether uniforms and continuing education for certifications like NATE are covered before you accept.
Heating Air Conditioning Mechanic Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most heating air conditioning mechanics?
The companies hiring the most heating air conditioning mechanics right now include Perfect 72 Heating and Cooling, SBS - NC, and South Cooling, with the largest share of openings in Texas, Florida, and Michigan, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Demand tends to stay consistent year-round given the mix of residential, commercial, and new construction hiring cycles.
How many heating air conditioning mechanic jobs are remote?
About 1% of heating air conditioning mechanic openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting the hands-on nature of most field service and installation work. The sub-areas most likely to offer remote or hybrid arrangements include HVAC system design, estimating, project coordination, and technical support roles rather than direct repair and installation positions.
How do you become a heating air conditioning mechanic?
Most heating air conditioning mechanics complete a formal apprenticeship or a postsecondary HVAC certificate program that combines classroom instruction with paid hands-on hours. After completing training, you obtain your EPA 608 certification to legally handle refrigerants, then build experience across residential, commercial, or refrigeration systems. Many technicians pursue NATE certification later to qualify for more specialized or higher-paying commercial positions.
Can you get hired as a heating air conditioning mechanic with little experience?
Yes, many HVAC contractors hire helpers or apprentice-level technicians who ride along with experienced mechanics and handle basic tasks like running line sets, sheet metal work, and equipment staging. Completing a vocational certificate program, earning your EPA 608 Type I or II certification before applying, and demonstrating comfort with basic hand and power tools meaningfully improves your chances of landing that first paid position.
What does the heating air conditioning mechanic interview process look like?
Most employers start with a brief phone screen focused on your certifications, equipment experience, and availability, followed by an in-person interview with a service manager or field supervisor. It is common to be given a scenario-based technical question, such as diagnosing a system not reaching setpoint, to assess your troubleshooting logic. Some companies add a shop walk-through or a brief hands-on skills check before extending an offer.
