Train To Become An HVAC Technician
The HVAC/R Technology program is built around experienced instructors, industry equipment, and trusted brand names such as Carrier, Bryant, and Lennox. Our program is designed for hands-on learners who want to get into the job market quickly. Plus, graduates benefit from our job placement assistance.
At Florida Academy, we know that you don’t learn how to become an HVAC/R technician with just books alone. That’s why we have our students cut and assemble black pipe for gas lines, wire high- and low-voltage lines to the heating and cooling equipment – all with expert, professional instructors there to show you the way. Our workshop is set up with the same equipment you’ll encounter out in the field including:
- Air conditioners
- Heat pumps
- Commercial RTUs
- Electrical boards
- Air distribution systems
- Soldering and brazing
- Black pipe
Through the program students will:
- Learn traditional HVAC/R fundamentals from experienced instructors
- Learn green technology
- Gain troubleshooting, maintenance, and repair skills
- Learn work-safety practices
In addition to achieving the HVAC/R Technology Level I Certificate, your coursework will include the principles and concepts associated with the EPA Section 608 Universal Certification. With this knowledge you will have the opportunity to take the EPA Universal examination. When you are interviewing for a job after graduation, that’s one more thing you will have that the competition won’t.
Our program provides students with a practical learning experience so that you’ll be well prepared for the real world after graduation. Plus, we offer evening classes to fit your busy schedule.
