Lead HVAC Installer JP HVAC - Heating & Cooling | Southern New Hampshire JP HVAC is a family-owned and operated HVAC company serving Southern New Hampshire. We're growing, and we're looking for an experienced Lead HVAC Installer who wants to be part of a company that takes the trade seriously. We're not interested in rushing through installations just to get to the next job. We want our systems to look good, operate correctly, and be installed in a way that the next technician who opens the equipment can immediately tell someone cared about their work. If you take pride in straight pipework, clean wiring, organized mechanical rooms, properly commissioned equipment, and leaving a job better than you found it, you'll fit in well here. What You'll Be Doing This is a true lead installer position. You'll be expected to take ownership of installations from the beginning of the job through final start-up.

Your work will include:

Gas furnaces and central air conditioning systems Heat pumps and air handlers Cold-climate heat pump systems Single-zone and multi-zone mini-splits Wall-mounted, floor-mounted, ceiling cassette, and ducted mini-split equipment Refrigerant line sets, condensate piping, and equipment drains Gas piping and appliance connections Sheet metal, plenums, transitions, and duct modifications Zone control panels, dampers, thermostats, and associated controls Indoor Air Quality equipment, including filtration, humidification, dehumidification, ERVs/HRVs, and other accessories Low-voltage HVAC controls and equipment wiring Equipment replacement and new installations You'll also be responsible for working with and providing direction to helpers or apprentices assigned to your jobs. We Expect Our Leads to Know the "Why" Being able to physically install equipment is only part of this position.

A JP HVAC

We do expect our lead installers to have a strong technical foundation, know how to find the correct information, and be willing to continue learning. What Good Work Looks Like at JP HVAC Quality isn't just whether the system turns on. We care about the details. That means straight and properly supported piping. Clean electrical and control wiring. Thought-out equipment placement. Proper drainage. Sealed and supported ductwork. Clean penetrations. Following manufacturer requirements. Protecting the customer's home. Cleaning the work area when we're finished. Most importantly, it means not walking away from something you know isn't right. Our name goes on every installation, and we want our employees to be proud to put their name on it too.

Someone who can lead when necessary, work alongside the rest of the crew, help an apprentice become better at the trade, and ask questions when something doesn't make sense. Mistakes can be fixed.
