Skilled HVAC Technicians, Recruited and Relocated
Good Labor Jobs is a nationwide HVAC staffing agency headquartered in Birmingham, AL. For more than 20 years, we have helped commercial, industrial, and mechanical contractors recruit HVAC talent through our Puerto Rican labor network, trade-school relationships, relocation support, housing, transportation, and staffing programs for installation, service, maintenance, refrigeration, controls, and project leadership.
Build Your HVAC Team TodayThe Good Labor Jobs Advantage
HVAC employers need skilled people who can step into demanding roles and stay. Our model combines recruiting with relocation, transportation, housing, and continued workforce support.
- 01
Direct Access to HVAC Talent
Our recruiting relationships in Puerto Rico and connections with trade schools and technical programs give HVAC employers another source of candidates when local recruiting channels are too limited.
- 02
U.S. Citizen Workforce
Workers from Puerto Rico are U.S. citizens, so employers do not need to rely on H-2B visas or other employment visas when bringing technicians to the mainland.
- 03
Longer-Term Technician Commitments
Year-long worker commitments can help HVAC companies reduce technician turnover, limit repeated recruiting, and maintain more continuity across service schedules, installations, and larger projects.
- 04
Housing and Transportation Support
Good Labor Jobs can coordinate housing and transportation for relocated HVAC workers, which removes a major logistical task from employers and gives technicians dependable daily support.
- 05
Continued Workforce Management
Our team stays involved after placement with regular communication, worker support, and help when attendance, housing, transportation, or other workforce issues come up.
HVAC Talent for Installation, Service, and Maintenance
HVAC companies often need workers with very different technical backgrounds. Good Labor Jobs recruits across installation, service, maintenance, refrigeration, commercial systems, controls, automation, and project leadership so employers can build teams around the work they perform.
Hire Quality Staff TodayHVAC Installation Specialists
We recruit HVAC installation specialists for new construction, replacements, equipment changeouts, ductwork, rooftop units, split systems, and other commercial or industrial installation work. The recruiting profile can be built around the systems, equipment, and experience required for the project.
Service & Maintenance Technicians
Good Labor Jobs can recruit service and maintenance technicians who support repairs, diagnostics, preventive maintenance, and recurring customer schedules. These roles can be especially difficult to fill when experienced technicians are already in high demand within the local market.
Commercial Systems, Controls & Automation
We can also recruit candidates with backgrounds in commercial HVAC systems, controls, automation, and larger mechanical environments. These roles may support industrial facilities, manufacturing plants, commercial buildings, and other sites where HVAC work goes beyond basic residential equipment.
Refrigeration & Project Leadership
Our recruiting services can support refrigeration technicians along with project managers and other leadership roles. These positions can help employers manage larger mechanical projects, expand service departments, and add experienced oversight where multiple technicians or crews are involved.
HVAC Certifications, Training, and Candidate Qualifications
NCCER HVAC Training
Good Labor Jobs has relationships with Puerto Rican trade schools and technical programs and can recruit for candidates with NCCER HVAC certification when an employer requires it. Candidate credentials should be matched to the specific position rather than assumed across every placement.
EPA Section 608 Certification
For roles that involve regulated refrigerants, EPA Section 608 certification can be included in the recruiting criteria. Good Labor Jobs can search for candidates whose qualifications match the technical requirements of the position.
OSHA and Trade-Specific Training
Commercial and industrial HVAC employers may also require OSHA safety training or other job-specific credentials. We can incorporate those requirements into the candidate profile before recruiting begins.
Our HVAC Staffing Process
- 01
Define the Technician Profile
We start by reviewing the work itself. Our team looks at whether you need installation, service, maintenance, refrigeration, controls, or leadership experience, along with required certifications, project location, headcount, work schedule, hiring timeline, and the staffing problems you are trying to solve.
- 02
Recruit Through Our Puerto Rican Network
Once the role is clear, we build the recruiting plan around experience, credentials, workforce size, temporary or direct-hire needs, and expected start dates. Our Puerto Rican recruiting network and trade-school relationships give HVAC employers access to candidates outside the immediate local labor market.
- 03
Coordinate Relocation and Workforce Logistics
Before technicians arrive, we can coordinate relocation timing, housing, transportation, reporting locations, work schedules, and other workforce logistics. This reduces the administrative work that comes with recruiting HVAC professionals from outside the employer's home market.
- 04
Place Technicians and Stay Connected
After candidates are selected, Good Labor Jobs can coordinate placement, housing, transportation, and continued worker support. We remain involved after technicians begin work and can help address attendance, housing, transportation, or other workforce issues that arise during the assignment.
HVAC Staffing for Difficult Labor Markets
Add Technicians When Service Demand Outpaces Hiring
Service backlogs, maintenance agreements, and seasonal demand can create more work than an HVAC company's current staff can handle. When local hiring cannot keep pace, Good Labor Jobs can help expand the available candidate pool and add technicians to support growing service volume.
Build Installation Crews for Large Projects
Commercial construction, equipment replacement programs, industrial projects, and new facilities can require several HVAC installers or mechanical workers at once. We help employers recruit around defined project schedules and workforce requirements when additional crews are needed.
Recruit Beyond the Local Technician Pool
Experienced HVAC technicians can be difficult to find in competitive markets where many contractors are drawing from the same group of candidates. Our Puerto Rican recruiting pipeline gives employers another way to reach workers who are open to relocating for the right opportunity.
