Lead Installer

HVAC Lead Installer

No Seasonal Layoffs + Bring Your Helper

No Back-to-Back Installs.

At Aire Serv of Madison, we do things completely differently than the big, corporate HVAC companies in the area. We’ve built a unique workplace where people actually enjoy coming to work, feel dialed into a cohesive team, and know they are genuinely valued.

We are seeking a Lead Residential HVAC Installer (who lives within ~1 hour of the shop in McFarland) to join our team. We aren’t the cheapest HVAC company in town – we are the best. We stand proudly behind our work - which means we want your installations to be done well – so much so, we never book more than one install per day no matter what.

We Bid It Right So You Can Build It Right.

Have a helper you already work well with? Bring them with you! We are flexible and happy to consider your helper too if you have one to bring along.

"See a Need, Fill a Need" - While your primary role is Lead Installer, we all chip in wherever it's needed. We look for individuals with a flexible mindset who are willing to step in and wear another hat if a unique need arises - whether that means helping out in new construction or assisting the service division. While this doesn’t happen often, we all step in when needed.

It really is what makes us unique. (Ask about examples of this...it’s inspiring!)

• Attitude: Professional, kind, and a true team player. We value positivity, an open mind, and people who take feedback constructively to grow.
