A Day In The Life Of An HVAC Technician

Im 28 years old and a father of four. I was working at a dead end manufacturing job for 10 years and knew it wasn't it for me. This past fall I saw a scholarship that was hard to get but I worked my butt off for it and it paid off!! I just got accepted this spring for a full ride for my HVAC associates degree! TIME TO MAKE A CHANGE! GOD IS GOOD! 🙏

Funny how he acknowledges the crawl space where the other dudes like like get this job done

The inconveniences are the bathroom and place to eat home-cooked food. But as a customer, I would let technician use my bathroom because I know how hard working these people are.

I worked as a residential tech and never went to the bathroom all day. You sweat it out. No need to pee.

Thats to big of a craw space. You need to craw on your belly to get to the equipment.

dude in the orange shirt is ANNOYING.

$220 cap? god dame

That dude did awesome! I’m 23 and a tech, I can’t stand people in my ear when I’m slammed and trying to work, he handled himself great

Never ask a customer to use their bathroom, you would make a lot more money working on aircraft.

That’s weird most of our techs are from tech schools.

well whatever comes with the callout charge

with ac problems not issues with life

hunter amazing im a hvac guy but id ask you to sort my issues

Lol SOMETIMES…it’s not about what you know… but WHO you know 😅







Yeo. I use to be a ups driver I was definitely a Gatorade in the back of truck kinda guy😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Onlyfans joke was on point, and subtle.

atleast there is space in that crawlspace i been to many where you literally have to be in you’re stomach

So genuine question. Do any of these guys ever think to bring like a battery powered fan under any of these houses that get that hot? Is that a thing they could do? I mean sure it wouldn't do much, but it would at least give them a nice breeze.

The tech was cool. The weird dude in the orange is annoying

Dang this looks fun. I’m in to all phases of construction and handy work. Looking to do framing but hvac is fun too.

Never trust the parts, I double check before heading out to the job

“don’t forget what i taught you”😂😂😂

Great video, You got a bright future ahead of you! In my experience to date I have found that eight out of 10 times refrigerant leaks are in the evaporator coil!

Hey is there a way to contact this person for HVAC Technician for on-the-Job Training?
If so, can you get me plugged in.

Hunter struggling with that control board

Great Job Hunter !!!

What's your point of view in taking the community college route instead of trade school. My local college offers the program and hands on work too. Can't decide which route is best.

U have to know the principles of electricity and the principles of refrigeration if u want the be a good tech

haha the only fans joke😂

great tech for one yr experience he knows his stuff thumb’s up

shes using OnlyFans 💀

Brooooo this is a great video!! I just finished technical school and about to start looking for companies who are hiring. This video gave more inspiration to start my Hvac career, Hunter dude is my hero 🙌 God bless my man!!

Gemini and Virgo hanging out

Fix the damn leak! It's that easy plus you had free help to assist with the torch!

I sure hope you didn’t just replace that evaporator coil and apply that amount of money towards the new system for better efficiency and a 10year manufactures warranty. That’s a easy unit sale at only $150 monthly payments

these guys are so cool 😭

Very good video. This is exactly what a day in the life is like!

I am a 20 yr old HVAC Tech myself from the Midwest. I am really impressed by the way this Tech handled himself and how well spoken he is.
I would have told that guy in the orange shirt to shut up and watch!😅 Especially when I'm on the phone!!

Sheesh. Glad I wasn't crawling under houses where I'm at.

Why isn't he wearing a mask when going into the crawl space? I wouldn't want to breath in dirt and mold. It is GA though, so it's probably super hot.

I'd be nervous telling a customer a cheap part like a capacitor is 220$ also. Lol.

Why is the only guy that went to trade school and got the knowledge and some experience a installer and not a service technician?

you definitely learn more out in the field than you do in tech school, only good thing about tech school is the fact that once you complete the program more than likely any company will hire you on the spot

Question, Compressor was replaced in January 2022. Fast forward to first hot 95 day in May, the entire day the A/C struggled to keep the house cool it ran all day both zones and ultimately the temp in the house kept rising to 76f degrees. At that point called HVAC folks who installed the new compressor in January...I expressed to them that it felt like there was not enough refrigerant and therefore could not properly cool the house..the air was cool but not cold, the copper pipe was cool but not cold as expected. Anyway that evening when they finally came out, the heat pump disconnect shorted out and they went on their way as I said I would replace the disconnect for $15 myself and 2 days later, same behavior they sent someone out, and finally they checked and agreed, the compressor was not properly charged and they added freon and the 25 year tech said you can't properly add freon in January because too cold out and the original tech from his company should have come out in warmer month to properly charge it...yah no kidding!!! Anyway, my argument to them was the disconnect shorted out because the HVAC was working overtime because it was not properly charged by them! I am trying to get them to refund my initial visit where they showed up and said the disconnect needed to be replaced...

I believe the disconnect shorted because they did not properly charge the compressor with Freon in January....thoughts????

The orange shirt guy was so annoying

Thanks for this

I'll be soon adding this skillset under my belt in the near future

Underpaid. Guaranteed. Those crawls will get tougher over the years. It's a dirty rough trade. Not enough space here to detail the down side of this trade.
