Build comfort. Build your career.
Southern Air Mechanical is seeking an experienced HVAC Installer for our Alvarado, Texas location.

What You'll Be Doing:
Install complete HVAC systems, including furnaces, air conditioners, heat pumps, ductless mini-splits, and ductwork to manufacturer specs, code, and industry standards
Perform thorough start-up, testing, and commissioning of installed systems to ensure proper operation; complete and sign the Safety, Quality, and Assurance Report
Communicate professionally with customers before, during, and after installation — delivering on the expectations set by the Comfort Advisor and ensuring the customer is fully prepared to operate their new system
Protect and care for the customer's home throughout the installation process
Complete pre-install, safety, and post-install checklists accurately, including the Job Site Hazard Analysis Report (JHAR), before beginning work
Maintain accurate records of work performed and materials used; report issues and replenishment needs to the Project Management Team at job completion
Collaborate with team members and project managers to complete installations on schedule
Help train and mentor install helpers and apprentices on the job
Stay current with industry standards, building codes, and licensing requirements

Ability to run installs with minimal supervision — furnaces, condensers, heat pumps, mini-splits, and ductwork
EPA Certification required
High school diploma or GED required
Valid driver's license and insurable driving record
Strong safety mindset — protective equipment and safety procedures are non-negotiable
