Join the Major Team

Major Heating and Air Conditioning has been family-owned and serving Colorado since 1970. We are growing our plumbing and hydronics team and looking for an experienced Colorado Journeyman Plumber who takes pride in quality workmanship.

This is not just a standard plumbing position. We are looking for someone with experience—or a strong interest—in boilers, radiant heating, snowmelt, hydronic systems, and custom mechanical rooms.

If you’d rather build a clean, professional mechanical room than run drain lines all day, this could be the right opportunity for you.

What You’ll Do

• Install, service, and troubleshoot boilers and hydronic heating systems
• Install radiant floor heating and snowmelt systems
• Build and pipe clean, professional mechanical rooms
• Install circulators, pumps, zone valves, expansion tanks, mixing valves, and other hydronic components
• Perform near-boiler piping and system piping
• Run domestic water, gas, and drain piping as required
• Perform preventive maintenance and troubleshoot existing systems
• Read and understand piping schematics, mechanical drawings, and equipment specifications
• Assist with system start-up, testing, and proper system operation
• Work with builders, general contractors, homeowners, and other Major team members
• Maintain Major’s standards for craftsmanship, professionalism, and customer service

• Gas piping and basic combustion knowledge
• Ability to troubleshoot systems independently
• General residential plumbing knowledge
• Valid driver’s license with an acceptable driving record
• Own basic hand tools
• Ability to lift equipment and work in mechanical rooms and confined spaces

Additional Experience Is a Plus

• Colorado Master Plumber License
• High-end residential or custom home experience
• Geothermal systems
• Chillers
• Building automation and HVAC controls
• DDC or smart-home controls
• Trade school or completed apprenticeship

Why Work at Major?

At Major, we do more than basic plumbing and HVAC. Our team works on custom hydronic systems, boilers, luxury mechanical rooms, geothermal systems, HVAC controls, and building automation.

You’ll have the opportunity to work on systems many plumbers never get the chance to experience while continuing to develop your skills and career.

We believe in doing things The Major Way—quality craftsmanship, taking care of our customers, supporting our team, and doing the job right.

Family-Owned & Operated Since 1970.

Benefits

• Competitive pay: $35–$50/hour based on experience
• Medical and dental coverage
• Paid training
