Industry is not creating enough new workers, report says
HVAC construction will need to find more than 100,000 technicians in the next seven years to meet expected demand, according to several new reports from an industry foundation.
Almost half of HVAC construction mechanics and installers are expected to retire by 2025, the HVACR Workforce Development Foundation says. Trade schools and college programs are not graduating enough students at current levels to fill the positions, foundation officials said.
