Solar/Hydronics Technician's Apprentice

Solar/Hydronics Technician's Apprentice:

We are primarily focused on the installation, repair, maintenance and upgrade of solar thermal water heating and space heating systems. We also repair or replace boilers, tankless water heaters, zone valve manifolds, air to water hydronic heat pumps and basic hydronic equipment. Our company prides itself in being able to retrofit existing systems to integrate with various heat-delivery types i.e. radiant floors, kick-space heaters, furnace heat exchanger ducts, etc. and likewise we install new solar thermal systems and integrate them with older heat-delivery systems. We have been in business for 29 years and have done hundreds of full system installations and thousands of system upgrades/repairs. We believe that we provide the highest quality service by installing the best products while doing it with integrity and care.

Job Description: Looking for a competent individual with some familiarity with hydronic systems (boilers, radiant floors, solar thermal, etc.) We understand that very few folks have hands-on experience with solar thermal systems, but we believe that with a decent foundation in hydronics or mechanical systems we can train nearly anyone to become a competent technician within mechanical rooms or on the roof.
