Commercial HVAC Installation Superintendent
Job DescriptionJob Description Lead complex commercial HVAC installs from kickoff to crane set
Picture your week: you rally a crew of 4–6 techs at sunrise, review site drawings, coordinate the crane pick for a rooftop unit swap, verify lockout/tagout, and guide electrical disconnects, controls/EMS and life-safety tie-ins, gas piping, and condensate routing. By sundown, your team wraps a safe, code-compliant install and you’ve captured time, photos, and notes on your mobile device for the Project Management Team. Repeat on the next city—because this role takes you nationwide.
