The HVAC course is designed to prepare students for careers in residential and commercial heating, ventilation, and air conditioning as well as refrigeration, boiler repair, sheet metal systems, and small appliance repair. The training could also lead students into careers in plumbing, electrical construction, low voltage wiring, and other trade careers. Students will learn to assemble commonly used piping systems, wiring techniques and schematic reading, air conditioning installation and repairs, gas furnace installation and repairs, and many other systems and practices common in the HVAC industry. Students will also be exposed to modern technologies such as programming residential split systems with bluetooth- communicating control boards, bluetooth manifold gauges, building automation systems, and apps that can assist with many facets from finding parts to identifying temperature/ pressure relationships. Students will also take several certification courses with the main one being EPA 608 which allows a technician to work with refrigerants.
