An Updated HVAC Technician Tool List for 2022

Picture of a set of tools

Doing cooling maintenance yourself isn't advised as it requires a certain quality of handiwork. The correct devices are required for a successful HVAC repair service. It takes a lot of money to invest in the right toolkit, and lots of experience to carry out perfect workmanship. If you wish to get the task done properly, hire a qualified technician who has the essential gear and skills to do a good job.


Here's what you can find in an HVAC Repair professional's bag:

Screwdrivers

Reputable technicians have a collection of screwdrivers to work on different bolts and screws located in most heating and cooling systems. They don't simply use the normal level head, hex, as well as Phillips screwdrivers; they buy those with protected manages to safeguard themselves from electrical shock.

Pliers

HVAC repair service professionals keep an arsenal of pliers and wrenches to deal with devices connected to pipes. To deal with electrical wiring and other electrical elements, these devices need to have proper shielding for security purposes as well as effectiveness.


Tin Nips as well as Steel Shears

Sheet metal control is an important part of cooling and heating repair tasks. Specialists who are prepared and professional generally bring three kinds of tin nips to cut metal in different settings and also directions with precision. A sturdy set of metal shears with protected deals is vital when making long, straight cuts.

Reciprocating Saw

Air conditioner technicians find reciprocating saws as an invaluable device for adaptability. Considering the challenging tasks and all the risks that come with them, wise professionals invest great money on items of high quality.

Vacuum Pump

Vacuum Pumps for Detecting Refrigerant Leaks

Cooling Agent Range

This tool is a necessity as it is used to guarantee that the right amount of refrigerant is charged right into the air conditioning. An inadequate supply would impact the system's ability to maintain the desired indoor temperature level. Too much supply would produce a high-pressure system within the unit, leading to stressing the compressor and thus reducing its lifespan.

    Been using them for years after the owner Kevin showed up so fast when our furnace went out one year. Been a fan since! Now, Danny is so great to work with, also. So friendly, knowledgable, fast. You guys are the best!

    Danny came out on a Saturday to diagnosis and fix my mom’s hvac unit.   He was able to quickly determine what the problem was and had all the parts to complete the repair right then.  His communication was clear and did a really good job helping us understand what caused the issue.  I would definitely recommend him and will be calling his company with any needs in the future. Thanks again!

    Fantastic customer service! I had a furnace issue, called late morning and they fit me in for diagnostic right away. Technician was extremely knowledgable, walked me thru everything he found - unfortunately needed a new furnace (was 24 years old anyways), got it scheduled and installed within 24 hours as everything was in the warehouse (probably got lucky on what we needed). Overall excellent customer service, from scheduling to diagnostic, to installation. Highly recommend.

    WOW! So impressed with so many aspects of this company. We had an animal die under the house in and could smell it coming out of the vents. When I called around, pest control was weeks out and Best Owner Direct was able to come the next day. Our technician, Danny was absolutely INCREDIBLE! Very professional, kind and made sure we had the problem taken care of the same day so we could breathe again! I look forward to continuing to work with them in the future for our HVAC needs.

    Daniel was excellent, attentive to detail and committed to completing all tasks other installers overlooked. He worked tirelessly into the evening making sure everything was working properly with a water heather install, and he had a great attitude all along.

    Excellent customer service, great communications answering all of our questions, left the site clean, and very respectful of our space within the house. Arranged to have someone come from the office later in the week to explain how the thermostat works.
