Commercial Preventative Maintenance Technician

Comfort Temp Heating and Air

Anyone can fix what's already broken. It takes a real technician to make sure it never breaks in the first place.

Rooftop units running hot. Belts one season from snapping. A chiller nobody's looked at since it was installed — until it goes down on the hottest day of the year and everybody's calling. You're the reason that call never happens.

Prevention isn't the backup plan. It's the whole game. And if that's the game you play best — not just repair, not just patching things when they finally quit — we want you on our commercial maintenance team.

Who We Are

Comfort Temp Heating and Air has been doing this since 1985. Four decades of trucks on the road, techs earning trust one visit at a time, and a name that means something when it's on the invoice. No shortcuts, no excuses — just reliable work and people who back up their word.

Four rules run this company:

• Do what it takes.
• Do what you say.
• Do it with purpose.
• Do the right thing.

That's not a poster in the breakroom. That's how we run the company, and it's how we expect our people to show up — on the job and off.

The Job

You're the reason a building's HVAC system just works, day after day, without anyone upstairs ever thinking about it. Air handlers, rooftop units, chillers, cooling towers, boilers — you roll up, you know exactly what to look for, and you catch the small stuff before it turns into a 2 a.m. emergency call for somebody else. In. Out. On to the next stop. No two properties run the same, and no two visits look the same either — that's what keeps this job sharp instead of stale.

What You'll Do

• Travel to commercial properties as scheduled — your route, your responsibility
• Perform routine maintenance on air handlers, rooftop units, chillers, cooling towers, and boilers
• Inspect systems like you're hunting for trouble, because you are — catch problems before they become breakdowns
• Check refrigerant levels, belts, motors, filters, and overall performance
• Clean coils, fans, and other key components so equipment runs the way it's supposed to
• Keep your tools, parts, and equipment inventory squared away — a disorganized truck is a wasted stop
• Document findings, recommendations, and completed work — clearly enough that the next tech (or you, six months from now) knows exactly what happened
• Back up senior techs on repairs or upgrades when needed, and pick up what you can along the way

What You Need

• 1–2 years of commercial HVAC maintenance experience
• Able to lift 50+ lbs regularly, 75+ lbs occasionally
• Valid driver's license and reliable transportation
• Comfortable with manual and power tools
• Self-motivated — you don't need someone standing over you to get the job done right
• Solid communication skills with customers
• Attention to detail and respect for safety protocols — the kind that never becomes a "we'll get to it later"

Nice to have: Completion of an HVAC training program or apprenticeship.

Why Techs Stick Around

• Over 40 years in business — this isn't a company that folds when things get tight, and it isn't going anywhere
• Steady, scheduled PM routes instead of chasing emergency calls all day
• A stocked, well-maintained truck so you're never scrambling for parts mid-visit
• Real trust in your judgment — we hire people who know prevention, and we let them work like it, no one riding your bumper
• A culture built on doing what you say, not empty promises hung on a wall
• Work that actually matters — every system you keep running is a building that stays open, and a business that keeps making money, and a customer who never has to think about their HVAC at all

Is This You?

You'd rather stop a breakdown than get called out to fix one. You take pride in a clean coil and a quiet motor. You keep your truck squared away because you respect your own time as much as the customer's. And when you say a system's good to go, it's good to go — no asterisks.

If that sounds like you, we want to hear from you.
