About The Position

Heating, Air, Plumbing is a family-owned and operated HVAC and plumbing company serving Midcoast and Southern Maine and we are looking for an experienced Lead HVAC Installer to join our team. This is not an entry-level installation position. We are looking for an experienced heating professional who can take ownership of a project from start to finish. You should be comfortable receiving the scope of work, planning the installation, working with an apprentice or helper, completing the installation to a high professional standard, starting and commissioning the equipment, and making sure the customer receives a system we are proud to put our name on. Just as importantly, we are looking for someone who can help develop apprentices into skilled tradespeople.
