CTHP- Commercial Service Plumber
About The Position
Comfort Temp HVAC and Plumbing is hiring a Commercial Service Plumber to service commercial facilities in the Gainesville area. This is a commercial-service-only role with no residential calls. The plumber will diagnose, repair, maintain, and install plumbing systems in large commercial facilities, including grocery stores, retail locations, and other high-demand commercial buildings. The work includes independent field troubleshooting and service in mechanical rooms with multiple boilers, recirculating pumps, and multiple system branches. The position involves commercial water and drain systems, fixtures, valves, and equipment. The plumber will travel to scheduled commercial job sites, communicate findings and recommended repairs to property managers and site contacts, and document work with accurate service notes, photos, and details. They are expected to follow applicable codes, safety standards, company procedures, and jobsite requirements, while maintaining an organized service vehicle, ready tools, and disciplined parts inventory. Comfort Temp has provided mechanical and plumbing solutions since 1985 and describes its values as integrity, craftsmanship, and accountability. Its stated core values are: “Do what it takes. Do what you say. Do it with purpose. Do the right thing.”

- Service commercial drain systems, including Schedule 80 drain piping, floor drains, air gap drains, indirect waste connections, and runoff drains.
