My name is Dave, and I’m a former commercial Hvac service technician. Currently working at a busy apartment complex with tons of HVAC issues. I’ve got 15+ years of hands-on experience in the HVAC field, and here to share some of those experiences with you.
My goal is to help homeowners, business owners, and aspiring Hvac Technicians to learn the ins and outs of the HVAC field. I will try and cover everything from best practices, safety, customer service, and minor troubleshooting of residential and commercial HVAC systems.
I am also an avid Stock photographer, and have taken many self-portraits of myself working on air conditioning and heating units, which some have sold in the thousands. If you need Hvac photos for your website, flyers, billboard promotions, then I have you covered.
Hi Dave, I ‘ve looked over your information on hvac. I just started working for a McDonalds franchise in Ill.& In. There are 5 stores total and the owner hired me as his maint. man,traveling from one store to the next to take care of their needs. In short I have 25 years experience in maintenance but nothing in hvac. I am looking for videos on hvac for beginners, with just the basic info on these units. Also the every day PM maint. and how to guide for beginners. If you can be of any help with videos please contact me @ dhwillhite@yahoo.com or call me at 1-765-592-2509. Thank you so much for your time, I hope to be hearing from you soon. Don
Hello David:
I am searching for HVAC education and certification. I would prefer to learn online and save time from commuting to school, though I’m sure much of this education would have to be hands-on. Can you recommend an online school ? My goal is to become certified by the State of Florida as a technician. I already have my EPA license. What could the local community college teach me that I couldn’t learn online ?
Hi David,
I am looking for advice on how to begin in the field of HVAC. I have no experience but am fairly interested in HVAC, i have visited a couple of trade schools that seem real decent but the student loan cost is a big commitment, is there another way/better way to enter the field of HVAC, what would a technicion of your experience reccomend?
I really appreciate your site. It seems like there is always more to learn with HVAC, and people like you offering free information is priceless! Maybe we can do business sometime, I run a sort of “directory” called HVAC Services. We point people to reputable and licensed HVAC service centers.
Dave I found your site and find it very informative.
I am in S Florida and have been keeping units running for 8 years, BUT I do not have the expertise to replace a compressor or handler. I am looking for a way to get this knowledge either on line or at a local school.
I am EPA universal certified(also a proctor) plus I am very familiar with with all components in Resi and Light comm equip. I have been in the portable business for many years supplying and servicing 1 thru 25 ton plus chillers. I just dont have the complete package to do it all.
Can you give me some insight on a good path. I would also like to chat with you via phone for more info if possible.
Thanks in advance

Hi Dave
I am looking for a good online school for HVAC training. I live in South Africa and am looking to change careers from building project management to a new one in HVAC. I only have time initially to study at night to get the academic knowledge and once I have the theoretical knowledge I will join company to get the relvant practical experience. Thank you for your insightful website. It has been very useful.
Is there a school in Central Florida (Eustis area) you would recommend to become an EPA certified technician.
