Physical Requirements

The physical demands described here are representative of those that must be met by an employee to successfully perform the essential functions of this job.  This position is regularly required to stand, reach, bend and lift heavy objects. The noise level in the work environment is typically high.

Strength and Endurance

o Lifting and carrying heavy equipment: HVAC technicians often lift and move heavy parts, tools, and machinery, including air conditioning units, compressors, and furnaces. This may require lifting 50-100 lbs or more.

o Standing for long periods: Technicians may be required to stand or walk for much of the workday while working on various systems.

o Bending, crouching, and kneeling: Working in tight spaces like attics, basements, and crawl spaces may require frequent bending, squatting, and kneeling.

· Flexibility and Mobility

o Climbing ladders and scaffolding: HVAC systems are often located on rooftops, in high places, or inside hard-to-reach areas, requiring climbing and balancing.

o Working in confined spaces: Technicians often have to work in small, enclosed areas like duct systems or crawlspaces, which can be physically restrictive.

o Crawling or lying down: Repairing or installing equipment might require crawling or lying in awkward positions for extended periods.

· Manual Dexterity and Coordination

o Hand-eye coordination: Working with small parts, tools, and electrical systems requires precision and steady hands.

o Use of tools: HVAC technicians must have the dexterity to handle and manipulate tools such as wrenches, screwdrivers, and gauges.

· Stamina

o Work in extreme temperatures: Since HVAC systems often fail during extreme weather, technicians frequently work in hot attics or cold environments, which requires stamina.

o Repetitive motions: Many tasks involve repetitive hand motions, such as tightening

· Vision and Hearing

o Good vision: Accurate visual assessments are needed for reading gauges, wiring diagrams, and manuals. Color vision may be required to distinguish between wires of different colors.

o Good hearing: Listening for unusual noises in equipment can help detect problems.

· Health and Safety Awareness

o Physical health: General good health is important due to the physically demanding nature of the work.

o Working with hazardous materials: HVAC technicians often work with refrigerants and electrical systems, so physical agility and a strong awareness of safety protocols are necessary.
