Job Description

HVAC Install Helper

Jake's Heating, Air & Plumbing | Full-Time

No Experience? No Problem. Got the Drive? Let's Talk.

Jake's Heating, Air & Plumbing is growing, and we're looking for an HVAC Install Helper who's ready to roll up their sleeves, learn a skilled trade, and build a career.

We're not looking for someone who knows everything about HVAC. We're looking for someone who's hungry to learn, shows up ready to work, and isn't afraid to get their hands dirty.

Someone who takes initiative, asks questions, learns from mistakes, and wants to get better every single day.

If you're motivated, dependable, and ready to turn hard work into a real career, this could be your opportunity.

What You'll Be Doing
  • Get Hands-On: Work alongside experienced HVAC installers to install and replace residential furnaces, air conditioners, heat pumps, and other HVAC equipment.
  • Learn From the Best: Gain real-world experience with HVAC systems, tools, ductwork, and installation techniques.
  • Keep Things Moving: Help load equipment, organize materials, prepare job sites, and make sure the crew has what they need to get the job done.
  • Be the Right Hand: Assist lead installers with equipment placement, ductwork, system connections, and other installation tasks.
  • Build Your Skills: Learn system startups, testing, troubleshooting, and adjustments while working under experienced technicians.
  • Take Ownership: Pay attention to details, follow through on tasks, and take pride in doing things right the first time.
  • Work Safely: Follow safety procedures, keep job sites clean, and treat customers' homes with respect.
  • Stay One Step Ahead: Look for ways to help your crew without always waiting to be told what to do.
What We're Looking For
  • A Strong Work Ethic: You show up on time, ready to work, and give your best effort.
  • A Willingness to Learn: You ask questions, take feedback, and want to improve.
  • A Go-Getter Attitude: You see something that needs to be done and take initiative.
  • A Team-First Mindset: You understand that a successful installation takes everyone working together.
  • Mechanical Aptitude: You enjoy working with your hands, figuring things out, and learning how things work.
  • Dependability: Your team can count on you to show up and follow through.
  • A Growth Mindset: You're not just looking for a paycheck. You want to build skills and move forward.

You'll also need to be comfortable working in attics, crawl spaces, and different weather conditions, and be able to perform physical installation work with appropriate assistance.

A valid driver's license with an acceptable driving record is required, along with the ability to successfully complete a background check and drug screening.

HVAC experience is a plus, but it's not required. We'll teach you the trade. You bring the effort.

Bonus Points If You Have
  • Previous HVAC installation or helper experience.
  • Construction, maintenance, or other hands-on trade experience.
  • Familiarity with hand tools, power tools, or mechanical equipment.
  • Experience working with ductwork or HVAC systems.
  • Trade school education or HVAC certifications.
What's In It for You?
  • Paid Hands-On Training – Learn the trade while working alongside experienced HVAC installers.
  • Career Growth Opportunities – Build your skills and work toward becoming an HVAC Installer or Lead Installer.
  • Medical, Dental, Vision & Life Insurance – Benefits to support you and your future.
  • Steady Work – Join an established company with opportunities to learn and grow.
  • Real Skills, Real Experience – Gain knowledge and hands-on experience you can build a career around.
  • A Team That Wants to Win – Work with people who take pride in their work and help each other get better.
