Job description

We’re Hiring: Level 1 Residential HVAC Service Technician – Step In and Step Up

Location: Collegeville, PA (Field-Based Role) | Pay Range: $23–$27/hour | Full-Time

Company Overview:

At Alpha 1 Heating & Cooling, we don’t hand out easy days or low bars. We fix real problems in real homes, and we do it fast, clean, and right the first time. We’re a tight, growing crew that rewards work ethic and accountability — not seniority or shortcuts.

If you’ve got some experience and you’re ready to carry more weight, you’re exactly who we’re looking for. But fair warning — if you just want to coast and cash a check, we’ll sniff that out fast.

Position Summary:

We’re hiring a Level 1 Residential HVAC Service Technician — someone with 1–2 years of field experience who’s ready to stop riding shotgun and start earning trust. You’ll run calls, troubleshoot issues, and handle repairs in residential settings, with guidance when you need it — but no one holding your hand.

You’ll deal with heat, cold, crawlspaces, demanding customers, and sometimes after-hours calls. It’s not easy — but it’s worth it if you want to move fast and grow sharp.

What You’ll Do:

• Run service calls on residential HVAC systems — with backup when needed

• Diagnose and repair heat pumps, furnaces, AC units, and mini splits

• Keep your truck stocked, your tools sharp, and your job notes tight

• Communicate with customers like a pro — no scripts, just clarity and respect

• Work long days, tough calls, and deliver results that hold up under pressure

What You’ll Bring:

• 1–2 years in residential HVAC or a similar mechanical trade

• Clean driver’s license and the ability to work independently

• Solid diagnostic instincts and growing repair chops

• Respect for customers, team, tools, and time

• No ego, no drama — just execution

Pay & Benefits:

• $23–$27/hour based on skill, speed, and accountability

• Health Insurance + Retirement Plan

• Paid Holidays + PTO

• Direct line to Level 2 for techs who prove they’re ready

• A crew that expects more from each other — and delivers
  

Physical Requirements & Work Environment:

You’ll be in the field — not behind a desk. Expect attics, crawlspaces, basements, bad weather, and tight deadlines. You’ll lift, sweat, solve, and still look sharp when you knock on the next door.

Don’t Just Wear the Uniform — Earn It

If you’ve got a year or two in the trade and you’re ready to run harder, think sharper, and take the next step, apply now! If you’re still waiting to be told what to do — don’t bother.

Alpha 1 Heating & Cooling is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We hire people who show up ready, stay coachable, and carry their weight. That’s the only résumé that matters here.
