Regardless of where you live, people need heating or air conditioning HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, & Air Conditioning) job opportunities are dramatically increasing all over the United States. While the need for Air Conditioning and Heating Technicians steadily rises, the amount of trained graduates to fulfill the positions has not. Because of this, HVAC technicians are finding themselves with great job security as well as increasing salaries. Here are just a few reasons why more people are turning towards a career in the HVAC field everyday:

1. HVACR certification requires quick and easy training that often lasts as little as nine months. According to Jon Cline of RSIAZ, a heating and air conditioning training school in Phoenix, Arizona, “Of the approximately 7,000 technicians trained in 2004, very few graduated from other than a career school such as ours. Traditionally, career school programs for HVACR are from 6 to 15 months. Graduates of accelerated training programs find a high employment demand and starting salaries in the range of $32,000 to $35,000 with as little as six months of training.”

With the mercury well below 32 in Omaha, the last thing anyone needs during the holidays is a problem with a home’s heating system.  The source of a sudden problem could range from a cracked heat exchanger to poor gas pressure or loose electrical connections. Certainly, the repair work is no job for an amateur but during the hectic holiday season, who has time to wait for a busy technician to arrive to resolve the problem?  If time is of the essence, a homeowner in a jam has the option of hiring a time sensitive technician.

McCarthy’s One Hour proudly lives up to the slogan, “Always on time, or you don’t pay a dime”; if they are even one minute late to a Guaranteed Service Appointment, the entire cost of the repair service is free.
