My father taught me everything I know about heating and cooling units.
When I was young, I always had dreams of entering bizarre work fields, but as I grew up, I realized that I really enjoyed working on HVAC units.
I first realized this when I was at home and our furnace stopped working. Our whole house was cold, and my dad was at work and couldn’t come fit the HVAC unit for us. I decided to go down in the basement and try to fix the furnace myself. I looked at the furnace and started to tamper with a few different parts, hoping to find the problem. I finally found out what was wrong with the furnace and was able to fix it on my own. My dad was so proud that I was able to fix the HVAC unit on my own. From that day on I decided I wanted to work on air conditioners and furnaces for a living. I went to school and earned my HVAC degree, then I got hired at a large HVAC company where I always have either an air conditioner, furnace, boiler, or thermostat to work on. It is great being an HVAC technician, but all the thanks goes to my dad. My dad is the one who first taught me about HVAC and helped me decide that being an HVAC technician was what I wanted to do with my life. I’ve had the privilege of working on several different air conditioners and furnaces with my dad, and I will admit that I have learned more from him in a few months than I did in all my years in college learning about HVAC.
