HVAC MUST HAVE TOOLS 🔨🔧

[@JuanRamonLopezjr]

I’m in my 30’s and was a chef for 14 years. I just decided to change my career and became an hvac technician. I’m so happy I decided to take the leap. I currently do the maintenance with an apartment complex. I like it.

[@jessegarciaiv5380]

I’ve been a cook for 4-5 years, recently just really started hating the bullshit that comes with being on the line. About to start looking into hvac. Hope you’re doing well man

[@sealedsecure3754]

@@YungHVAC Milwaukee, Wisconsin 👍👍 I was thinking about starting a second channel.( my KZbin channel right now is about sharing scripture and the good news about what Christ did for us all). But I want to possibly start another channel about commercial HVAC. I primarily install duct and set huge air handler units on roofs in commercial and industrial buildings. At our company we have a set of guys primarily for service/ controls. In school we do learn some service and residential just to have the knowledge tho. The tools I use in the field are different than what you use usually so I would probably start with the tools we use as a HVAC commercial installer👍👍👍

[@YungHVAC]

sealed secure there’s always room for cool videos bro. If you have room in your schedule to do it then go for it bro. I’ll support for sure . As long as you have a niche then you’re good

I wish i knew about this field much earlier in life. I am into my first year doing commercial refrigeration. Minus the awful weather, it's an exciting trade. The tools you listed are good for beginners until your boss starts asking you for other tools like grease guns, hammers, pry bars, welding kits, ratchet wrenches, valve core removers, pipe cutters, manometers, leak detectors, manifold gauges, pipe wrenches, and the list goes on.

[@richardmiller3808]

Not to take away from Kline Tools but if you want a solid Meters for electrical needs Fieldpiece is the way to go. Nut drivers. Kline makes a single 5/16 - 1/4" magnetic tool that works great and you only need to carry one tool. You seem to have a good hold on the tools needed. Nice to see a younger person so interested in a Skilled trade field.

[@YungHVAC]

richard miller I totally agree with you rich! Just was working with what they had in Home Depot lol. I like field piece meters and uei

[@richardmiller3808]

@@YungHVAC keep adding to that tool collection and you may end up starting your own HVAC biz. Being in Vegas the as you are the HVAC companies are plentiful from my understanding.

I’m not in HVAC. I work in an office, doing financial planning. I make really good money, but it’s soul draining work and I work for a company/boss that doesn’t appreciate me for the extended hours and constant on-call work. I am a handy-man type and I love working on things, been considering a career in HVAC. I love doing manual work and I feel like HVAC is a good career to get into. But a career change is a scary prospect because once I burn this bridge there’s no going back. It’s all or nothing. Good thing is that I’m a tool junkie and I already own almost all these tools. Got that going for me I guess.

[@codyprejean5902]

Heck yea man join the trade you won't be disappointed

[@Ben-lo7cy]

I would recommend the klein 11 in 1 with the schrader tip instead of the electrical one. Also I just saw they make a stat screwdriver that’s a 4 in 1 with a schrader tool...btw I’m a Milwaukee fan boy too lol

[@aarongray503]

The cool thing is if your going to school. Many times you can get discounts on tools from the school.

Yung HVAC I working in grocery and considering switching over to either hvac or electrician

[@YungHVAC]

my dog those were my same 2 choices too ! I looked further into the electrician requirements and it takes a little longer so I went with HVAC . Just do a little research and then go take some tours of your nearest programs . That will give you a feel of which one you will choose.

[@bikerbobcat]

Good video. 4yrs or so, commercial and residential. Once you got that Universal refrigerant certification start opening accounts at all the supply houses you can. Some stuff like vacuum pumps you just can't find at Home Depot (sometimes I can't even find regular tools there). Plus you'll get the recovery machine and tanks (You DO use those, right?) and welding torches. Soon enough you'll basically be your own company with all your own tools and just trade uniforms until you're the owner. :D

[@markc6571]

Sweet! I have just about every tool (specifically Milwaukie)on the list minus the multimeter. There was a point in my life when I thought I had a shopping addiction. I'm 100% justified lol.
