The Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning, and Refrigeration (HVAC-R) field is part of a growing technical-trades industry. This program is designed to provide the student with a fundamental understanding and working knowledge in the fields of Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning, and Refrigeration. Students will study all phases of HVAC-R applications, fundamental circuitry/schematics reading, and troubleshooting electrical, mechanical, and refrigeration systems. Students will be given the opportunity to take the EPA certification testing on site (at an additional fee) as well as testing for field certification in residential, light commercial, and heat pump application. Students will train on light commercial systems applications, in-depth trouble shooting of circuitry, mechanical, and refrigeration systems. While in training, students will be given the opportunity to learn the practical application of recovery equipment and other service tools specific to the trade. Students will also be allowed to choose specific areas of training, such as building energy management, sheet-metal design and fabrications, estimating and layout. Time will also be spent preparing for industry certification.
