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

Work effectively with apprentices and installation helpers
Teach and develop less-experienced team members
Maintain company tools, equipment, vehicles, and inventory

Active Connecticut D-2 or S-2 HVAC license

Valid driver’s license and insurable driving record
Strong residential HVAC installation experience

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.

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
