Why Ongoing Training Is Essential for HVAC Technicians
Effective training is more essential than ever before for all technicians working in the HVAC industry today.

AC Repair: DIY Or Call A Professional
Air Conditioner Repair: DIY or Professional?
It’s a beautiful summer morning in Tyler, Texas. The sun is shining. The birds are singing. All seems right with the world until you notice your air conditioning isn’t working.
Maybe it’s not coming on at all, or maybe it’s blowing air that’s just not as cold as it should be. By mid-afternoon, the temperature outside will be at least in the nineties, and the temperature inside your home won’t be far behind. So, what should you do? It’s natural to assume the worst- that you will need an expensive brand-new air conditioner or a completely new AC system installation. Thankfully, that is often not the case.

Trying to maintain your home’s HVAC system can seem like an overwhelming number of acronyms, complex hardware, and odd units of measurement.

It’s never recommended to try to do maintenance or make repairs on your own, there are professional HVAC maintenance programs for just that. But if you find that you do need an air conditioner repair at some point, knowing some of these terms will help you make sure you are getting the best work and equipment for your home (or, at the very least, it’ll be fun to quiz your mechanic’s HVAC vocabulary knowledge).
