HVAC Mechanic Jobs in South Carolina

A HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) Mechanic plays a critical role in the construction industry, responsible for the installation, maintenance, and repair of heating, air conditioning, ventilation, and refrigeration systems. These professionals work on both residential and commercial buildings, ensuring that they provide a safe and comfortable environment. They read blueprints and schematics, understand compliance standards, test systems for proper functioning, perform routine maintenance, troubleshoot issues, and repair systems when necessary. They also work closely with other construction professionals, such as architects, project managers, and electricians, to coordinate tasks.

Important skills for a HVAC Mechanic include manual dexterity, detail orientation, troubleshooting skills, and understanding of HVAC systems and tools. They should also have strong customer service skills as they often interact directly with clients. Certificates like EPA Section 608 Technician Certification and North American Technician Excellence (NATE) Certification are often required or preferred. Prior to becoming an HVAC Mechanic, a person may have job roles such as an HVAC Installer, HVAC Helper, or Maintenance Technician, providing them with the necessary experience and knowledge to advance in this career.
