First of all, you may be wondering what NATE is. NATE stands for North American Technician Excellence. It’s the largest non-profit certification organization in the nation for refrigeration, air conditioning, heating and ventilation technicians. From NATE’s website: “NATE is the certification organization governed, owned, operated, developed and supported by the entire HVAC/R industry.”
Why should you hire a NATE-certified technician? NATE-certified technicians are preferred among many different groups, including technicians, contractors, manufacturers, distributors, educators, trainers, utilities and, most importantly, consumers.
Why are NATE-certified technicians so well respected? Read the reasons and watch the video below, and it won’t be long before you’re making sure your HVAC technician is NATE-certified.
- They do the job right the first time, meaning fewer callbacks.
- They generate more income for their employers, so they receive a bigger paycheck, which makes the technicians value their jobs more and work harder.
- NATE has a uniform test standard, which is beneficial to educators and trainers.
- They correctly install and service sophisticated equipment. In the long run, this equipment saves energy and money.
- NATE-certified trainers are well-trained, very experienced and knowledgeable.
To sum up: a NATE-certified technician is the ONLY person you want working on your HVAC system.
