Sometimes the best of intentions go awry, and the consequences cause more damage than whatever problem was originally being addressed. Sound familiar? In his monthly column in @HVACToday, Editor-in-Chief @msweil examines the technician shortage in this country and how important it is that the #HVAC Industry gives voice to younger people who are succeeding as technicians. Governmental rule-making aside, young people today need to hear from their peers about the advantages of the trades. He says, “Let’s give them a voice.” Read his column here: https://lnkd.in/e5k6rsrd.

Contrary to some common beliefs, the best #HVAC techs are not necessarily the ones with the most knowledge or skill. Standout techs usually have a strong desire to serve others AND a natural curiosity and drive to learn. In his June 2024 @HVACToday editorial, @Team_NCI’s Dominick Guarino lays out what contractors should look for when recruiting technicians to their team. From listening skills to professionalism, Guarino provides insights on what HE would like to see in an #HVAC technician who comes to his home.

Everything is preparation for something greater... The moment I believed that, my world changed for the better...I started seeing solutions instead of problems. My personal life began to take off and I benefited professionally as well. This is the approach that made me a successful technician... instead of... "Damn, I have five calls today?!? Does anyone else?" I'd think..."if I had my own company the hardest part would be getting into the clients home, this place of employment has gifted me the opportunity to do what I do best, 5 times." or.... "Stupid dispatchers can't even do their jobs right and qualify the call correctly and now I'm on a one legger." instead it was.... "That's difficult out bounding and taking inbound calls all day plus dealing with the clients personalities, logistical nightmares and such. I'm going to turn this one legger into a two legger by utilizing technology and my brain." As I continued my professional journey I found myself reminded of this. I found it imperative to make sure the next professional outfit I join will be professional, in every sense of the word. No longer will I convince myself that I can influence the minds of those whose moral codes have abandoned them, or would rather practice archaic processes, cultivate a toxic culture but claim to preach positivity. That led me to an opportunity within the Plumbing world, I remember my first thought. "They're going to say you were run out of your industry." That was Fear trying to implement the same tired, old, strategy. But because I have practiced conquering fear for some time now, I can see the truth no matter the current weather. ...I stopped being a technician a long time ago, although I'll never lose that skill set I am no longer a technician. I was blessed to grow within the #HVAC field and #HVAC in turn taught me how to be a leader, a servant to good will and education. I am no longer lauded for my technical ability, but for my knowledge, effectiveness, processes and leadership. And in turn it allows me to turn the chapter and become someone who aims to better the trades in total, in position to #BetterHVAC down the road and learn something totally new #hvaclife

Is this ENERGIZED WORK? Here is the story... -- You are a generator technician . You've been called to a customer's site because they can't get their Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) to operate. After some careful investigation and troubleshooting you discover the control panel needs to be replaced. In order to replace it you will need to open the door to the ATS and expose yourself to 600 volts. The control panel is on the door that you opened. You ask the client if you can kill power to the ATS while you work but they say NO! Now what do you do? Can you still complete the task safely? Is this considered energized work? Do you need an energized work permit? Let me know what you think! -- Want to learn more about energized work?
