BUILD IT. LEAD IT. BE PROUD OF IT.

We’re building the original installation team at One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning of Greater Hartford.

We’re looking for an experienced Connecticut D-2 or S-2 licensed Lead HVAC Installer who wants more than another installation job.

We want someone who takes pride in craftsmanship, understands that details matter, knows how to lead an installation professionally, and wants an opportunity to help establish the standards for a growing HVAC company.

You’ll be one of the people who helps determine what “great installation” means at our company.

COMPENSATION

$40–$48/hour base pay , depending on license, experience, leadership capability, and technical expertise.

Plus:

• Overtime opportunities
• Performance/productivity incentives
• Advancement opportunities as the installation department grows

Strong performers have the opportunity to earn approximately $85,000–$110,000+ annually , depending on hours, incentives, and performance.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

As our Lead HVAC Installer, you’ll:

• Lead residential HVAC system replacements and installations
• Install furnaces, air conditioners, heat pumps, air handlers, and related equipment
• Complete ductwork and system modifications as required
• Perform electrical and refrigerant-related installation work within license scope
• Ensure proper startup, commissioning, and system operation
• Follow manufacturer specifications, applicable codes, permit requirements, and company standards
• Maintain clean, organized, professional job sites
• Protect customers’ homes and property
• Communicate professionally with homeowners
• Identify installation challenges before they become problems
• Work effectively with apprentices and installation helpers
• Teach and develop less-experienced team members
• Maintain company tools, equipment, vehicles, and inventory
• Help establish our installation procedures and quality standards
• Reduce callbacks by doing the work correctly the first time

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

Required:

• Active Connecticut D-2 or S-2 HVAC license
• EPA Section 608 certification
• Valid driver’s license and insurable driving record
• Strong residential HVAC installation experience
• Ability to independently lead residential replacement installations
• Understanding of applicable HVAC codes and manufacturer requirements
• Strong workmanship and attention to detail
• Professional homeowner communication

HIGHLY VALUED

We’re especially interested in candidates with experience in:

• Heat-pump installations
• High-efficiency furnaces
• Central air-conditioning systems
• Complete system changeouts
• Ductwork modifications
• Refrigerant piping
• Electrical troubleshooting
• System commissioning
• Airflow and static-pressure testing
• Indoor air quality products
• Leading installation crews
• Training apprentices
• ServiceTitan or similar field-service technology

THIS IS A LEADERSHIP ROLE

Technical skill is only part of what we’re looking for.

A Lead Installer sets the standard for everyone working beside them.

We want someone who can say:

“This installation has my name on it, and I’m proud of it.”

That means doing the job safely, correctly, cleanly, and professionally—even when nobody is watching.

OUR CULTURE

We’re building a learn-it-all culture, not a know-it-all culture.

We value people who are:

• Dependable
• Accountable
• Coachable
• Team-oriented
• Customer-focused
• Detail-oriented
• Self-motivated
• Proud of their craft

Experience should create confidence—not arrogance.

Our best people will teach others, accept feedback themselves, solve problems, take ownership, and continuously improve.

WHY JOIN US NOW?

This is an opportunity to join the company while we’re still building the foundation.

You won’t be joining an installation department with years of habits and bureaucracy already established.

You’ll have an opportunity to help build it.

As we grow, this position could create a path toward:

• Senior Lead Installer
• Installation Supervisor
• Field Supervisor
• Technical Trainer
• Installation Manager
• Operations Leadership

We want people who can grow as fast as the company does.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM US

• Competitive licensed-installer compensation
• Performance incentives
• Overtime opportunities
• Company vehicle as appropriate for the role
• Company technology
• Professional uniforms
• Quality tools and equipment
• Training and continuing development
• Certification support
• Leadership-development opportunities
• Direct access to ownership
• Opportunity to help shape the installation department
