Is it possible to get HVAC certification without experience or schooling?
Asked by ntccharvester
I'll be looking to get a job a building maintenance and it will eventually require HVAC certification. I will not be doing HVAC work continually but from time to time will need to work on the systems(residential and commercial tenant units). Will it be possible to study for the test and then take it? What levels of certification are there and what is most likely required for apt. building maint? Is classes required? What is the test like and what can I expect? Is there something online or avail. at the library that would help me get certified? Your help is greatly appreciated.

Best Answer:
there are class on line available for HVAC certification and you can use the studie guides to help. the books are available at the library or use the link below. the test books are some of the older questions that have been asked on test. you would still need to study online or by a class to get the answers and competedence for working.

Not that I know of, but there is a way to get training while going to school if you have trouble with classes. If your not a good student taking classes on the internet may be tough, they require a lot of reading and writing. Some places will hire you for training and allow you to take the necessary classes to become certified while you work. You will be an apprentice to someone who is certified and do their grunt work. Try looking up HVAC apprentice online and see what you get. Here is an example: http://www.simplyhired.com/job-id/srs2bvkf4z/hvac-r-jobs/
