The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that HVAC technician jobs are going to grow 5% in the next 10 years between 2021-2031, about the average for all jobs. The median pay HVAC technicians make is over $48,630 per year.

And the best part? Your job’s never going to get outsourced to some overseas factory or call center. Every year, summer or winter’s going to come again (sometimes both, depending on where you live…), heating and cooling systems are going to break down, and sweating or shivering people are going to pick up the phone.

Our goal with this website is to provide you with the most comprehensive info available on the web about HVAC training degrees and certificate programs, at colleges, vocational schools, and other locations across the US. We provide contact info, cost info, and much more – and we’re going to be adding to it frequently.

HVAC Technician Certificates

You can seek to become a full-fledged HVAC technician. The EPA’s Section 608 Technician Certification comes in three levels and is necessary for anyone handling refrigerants. There is a universal one.

  • EPA Type 1 Certification: To work for smaller appliances like window air conditioners.
  • EPA Type 2 Certification: This is for those who want to deal with high-pressure systems.
  • EPA Type 3 Certification: This one is for low-pressure systems.
  • Universal EPA Certification: This certification will cover all types of EPA.

Aside from these mandatory ones, NATE offers four optional certifications that you may want to pursue-
