Profile |

Most heating and air conditioning specialists
start out as apprentices, with simple
tasks such as insulating refrigerant lines
or cleaning furnaces. They may quickly
advance to cutting and soldering pipes
and sheet metal and checking electrical
and electronic circuits. Then they often
go into business for themselves. If you’re
an independent type who is persistent,
inquisitive and mechanically inclined,
you’ll take pride in a heating and
air conditioning career.
Among service technicians, the fastest
growth rate will be among heating, air
conditioning and refrigeration mechanics
and installers, an occupation that is
expected to grow 31.8% through 2012. Job
