The Work

You’ll service advanced commercial HVAC systems at customer facilities throughout Cincinnati and the surrounding service area.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Installing, commissioning, maintaining, troubleshooting, and repairing commercial VRF and VRV systems

• Working with Daikin, Mitsubishi, Toshiba, and other major VRF/VRV technologies

• Diagnosing complex refrigerant-circuit, electrical, controls, networking, and system-communication problems

• Using manufacturer software, service tools, operating data, schematics, and diagnostic instruments to identify root causes

• Testing, calibrating, and verifying system performance according to manufacturer requirements

• Reading and interpreting wiring diagrams, refrigerant schematics, control sequences, and technical documentation

• Performing preventive maintenance to improve reliability, efficiency, and equipment life

• Clearly explaining equipment conditions, repair needs, and recommended solutions to customers

• Maintaining accurate records of readings, work performed, equipment conditions, and follow-up needs

• Coordinating effectively with dispatch, customers, leadership, project teams, and other technicians

• Participating in a rotating emergency on-call schedule

• Providing technical guidance and field support to less-experienced technicians

• Maintaining an organized company vehicle, tools, equipment, inventory, and work area

Although this position specializes in VRF/VRV technology, you may also service other commercial equipment based on your experience, including rooftop units, split systems, heat pumps, chillers, boilers, and building automation systems.

What You Bring

• Five or more years of commercial or industrial HVAC service experience

• Strong hands-on experience installing, commissioning, servicing, and troubleshooting VRF or VRV systems

• Strong organization, attention to detail, and ownership of customer commitments

• Ability to work independently while remaining connected and accountable to the team

• Commitment to safe, accurate, high-quality work

• Interest in sharing technical knowledge and helping other technicians develop

Completion of an HVAC trade-school program, apprenticeship, manufacturer training, or equivalent technical education is preferred. Comparable commercial VRF/VRV field experience will also be considered.

You do not need experience with every manufacturer or every type of commercial HVAC system. We’re interested in technicians with strong VRF/VRV fundamentals, advanced troubleshooting ability, and a desire to continue building their expertise.
