HVAC Service Technician

HVAC TECHNICIAN
Columbus, MS

Join a growing HVAC company where 3 focused calls a day (not
4) means real time for full system diagnoses — not rushed patch jobs. This is a shop that pays for your training, funds your tools, and rewards you for doing the job right with real commission on top of a strong base.

THE BASICS

Columbus, MS
Pay: $25–$30/hr base + commission (3% on service tickets; 4–6% tiered on system installs; first month's payment on service plans)

7:15 AM arrival, work starts 7:30 AM. Typical end time 4:00–5:00 PM — usually 4:00 PM off-season, can run 5:00–6:00 PM during peak. Half-day Sundays available for those who want to attend church, starting around 12:00 PM.
On-Call:
Rotating on-call schedule; last call taken by 8:00 PM. Weekend work limited to emergencies or service-plan customers. $200 stipend + time-and-a-half for hours beyond 8/day.

WHAT YOU'LL DO
