For being a younger guy Roddy and somewhat newer you’re very professional. You listen to the homeowner, which is really important, and you thoroughly investigate issues even if you can’t determine what the issue is, you at least try to find answers. You definitely have the ingredients for making it far in this trade. 👍
You want to move to Boise and do commercial work? I’d take 10 more techs just like you. Good attitude, articulate and thorough. Keep up the good work, you’re an asset to our trade!! You got yourself another sub too.
@@Bhodi_Ballistics you can start with a union, they have apprenticeship programs and can find you a place to work. If you don’t like unions just look for who is hiring and has a good reputation and go apply. It’s a great trade. You won’t get rich and you’ll always be challenged. Lol
@@SouthAlphaSigma_ I make around $41 an hour plus benefits. In Seattle five years ago I was making $52 an hour plus better benefits. Boise is still behind in wages but better than living in a shit hole like Seattle turned in to.
Give it a few years kid you'll be cussin out customers in no time . Those dirty S.O.B's dont know nothing bout their own house then they wanna leave then the husband wants to chime in and gives ya some goofy story about shutting off at night . Probably cause of his goofy programing skills on HIS Stat . NAhhh Just Playin Gotta Give the Customers Respect ! Great Job Roddy keep it up ! You're fixing to make some MONEY with that good attitude just be patient it will come .
Great job and great patience!! I woulda left that 3rd house when the customer left! I don't want to be blamed for anything! LOL I don't know why people hate to change the blower caps! LOL They want to wait until they go out in the middle of the night! LOL
Just subscribed to you. I’ve been doing HVAC for about 5 years in the army and I’m nervous about getting out and doing hvac part time while I do school full time. The jobs I did in the army weren’t specifically Hvac focused. Any tips for me bro ? Any info would be greatly appreciated
New sub here, I’m in the commercial kitchen equipment repair/install. Not finding I like it, I had 6 months of On the job training and was booted out on my own with no previous experience, thinking of starting fresh and getting into an HVAC apprenticeship, what aspect of HVAC should I get into to get my feet wet? I was thinking installs?? Great vids
That’s a great start. In GA we can apply for the Pell Grant, and the Hope Scholarship. Between the two you may not need to pay anything at all. And if you’re applying for a job if they know you’re going to school or that you’ve graduated it very much helps.
I know installation is more important than the brand, but if all of them were equal in price, which brand would you choose for your own home? Lennox, Carrier, Goodman, Bryant, or what would you choose???
I got a new return grille 20x20 and it's alittle smaller than my current old one and the filter is snug that I used to see how it fits, also I've searched for wider dimensions but none that goes to 23 on the outside, It's not in yet I need help on what to do
Learn when to be quiet ,if you see your senior doing something shady take mental notes don’t call him out on it in public because mfs are scummy they’ll believe them before they believe you
@@hvacroddy5261 I figured lol but I don’t see how you get all the cool options. I don’t see how to make like subtitles on screen or anything like that. I suck st editing 🤣

Yo it’s crazy how we got the exact name and go by Roddy as our nickname and we’re both HVAC Technicians. Much love my guy keep getting to it !
Very respectful and knowledgeable HVAC Technician!
You should clean your condenser coils before checking pressure… a fellow HVAC TECHNICIAN

How do I break into the trade? I am very interested in hvac but have no experience but would be willing do whatever it takes to start

I just got my epa 608 universal today 🤝🏼
Cudos to you getting in the trade. Get the training and knowledge to do estimating or sales one day. This is a young mans trade believe me
HVAC looks like it’s a blend of electrical refrigeration plumbing and sheet metal
And carpentry, and science, and sales, and mining (crawlspace 🤣)
Always look forward to your videos as I get closer to attending Trade School for HVAC fr
Thanks Hero !!
How's the school going?!

I say go for it . You only live once !
How do you get started in hvac ? I’m also in Georgia. Do you just take a course at a tech school and then apply for an apprenticeship ?

The company I work at uses carrier.
For all of our new construction. We have a big contract with dr Horton
Great video love 👍🏾

Did u charge that 3rd house?
Nice video , do you get paid while driving ?
@1:46 Lmaoooo 😂
Do you encounter mice/snakes often?
Is being a hvac technician very physically demanding? Iam thinking about doing it but scared of wear n tear on my body.
It is pretty physical demand on some days . But usually most you’re doing in sit down or on your knees fixing stuff
Idk if you can say but how much a year do you make as an hvac tech??
Depends on experience and where you live but most of the ones I know are around 40k-55k a year
I think it depends on your skill set. Some make 39k while others make close to 90k.
Roddy which school did you go to am in Atlanta been tryna see which school is the best to learn please 🙏 thanks mane
I went to Georgia Piedmont Technical in Clarkston . It was pretty nice .
Thanks man preciate it !
Can u make 6 figures a year in this field bro?
Yes
Yeah. But you'd have to work a lot of overtime or own your own company.
Can you tell me what you use to edit vidoes
