Our top Lead Installers earn between $55K-$150K+ per year. You'll train at hourly pay (2-6 weeks depending on experience), then move to flat rate plus unit pay - so the better you run your crew, the more you take home.

  • Start and test complete systems (A/C, heat pump, furnace) in any season without Help Desk support
  • Run system performance verification using Measure Quick independently
  • Install and properly secure gas lines and FMGL per code
  • Set condensers, mount disconnects, and wire units to spec

  • Mentor and guide Installer I and II technicians on the crew
  • Ensure the homeowner understands their new system before you leave
  • Keep your truck stocked, your tools sharp, and your PPE in order

What We Need:
  • Proven experience leading residential HVAC installs
  • Advanced troubleshooting skills - you solve it, you don't escalate it
  • EPA 608 Type II or Universal certification
  • OSHA-10 certification
  • Brazing and Soldering Certification
  • Evacuation and Recovery Certification
  • System Performance Certification (or ability to obtain)
  • Working knowledge of gas code and gas line sizing

  • Able to pass background and drug screen
  • Reliable - you show up on time, you run the job right, and your crew follows your lead

This isn't an entry-level posting. If you've put in the years, built the skills, and you're ready to run the job - this is where that pays off.
