Job Description
About Us Sprung Heating & Pump Service is a family-owned mechanical contractor serving homeowners, builders, and businesses across the greater Lake Country area. Along with heating and cooling, we handle well pumps, water heaters, water treatment, plumbing, and standby generators — so there's real variety in the work and real room to build your skills. We're a team of about 15. The owner still runs jobs. There's no corporate call center between you and the person making decisions. Why Techs Stay Here Competitive hourly pay based on experience and certifications Overtime available Uniform allowance and PPE C ompany-supplied specialty tools and instruments Paid time off and paid holidays Health insurance, Vision, Dental, HSA, and 401K with company match (restrictions apply) Paid ongoing training — manufacturer schools, EPA/NATE certification costs, and continuing education covered if directed by the Company Rarely on call — after-hours work is the exception here, not the routine What You'll Actually Do You'll be part of our install team, putting in residential and light commercial heating and cooling systems and getting them running right the first time. From time to time you'll also lend a hand on water heater installs, generator installs, and repairs — that's a bonus for building your skills, not the core of the job.
