    Craig has been a keystone in my learning of the HVAC field. I went from being an installer of seven years not knowing how anything worked, to being able to fully diagnose some of the more complicated issues without any assistance from more experienced technicians. If you’re new, or just looking to broaden your knowledge of this ever changing field, keep it right here with AC Service Tech.

    Thanks for putting this out Craig. It is rare to find a true craftsman in the trades. Most people are just content to make it work but to truly understand how it operates and runs at optimal performance is the right way to be.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Discussing The World of VRF With The VRF Tech Himself Roman Baugh!
Q: What advice would you give to someone halfway through their VRF journey to raise their skill level?
Share what you know with others, because teaching reinforces your own learning; also master multiple brands to broaden your troubleshooting toolkit, and stay connected with communities and resources so you're not isolated when you hit tough problems.
Discussing The World of VRF With The VRF Tech Himself Roman Baugh!
Q: What are the big challenges for technicians looking to install and service VRF systems?
Challenges include strict brand-specific installation rules, line set length limits, proper pipe sizing, nitrogen brazing, and following the programmatic guidelines that export system-specific instructions; the worst outcomes come from skipping steps or misapplying guidelines, leading to reduced capacity or compressor failures.
Discussing The World of VRF With The VRF Tech Himself Roman Baugh!
Q: So Roman, can you tell us a little bit about what VRF systems are and where they are installed at?
VRF stands for Variable Refrigerant Flow, suitable for a wide range of applications from residential to large commercial; installations can be banked across multiple indoor units with one outdoor unit, including in places like banks, supermarkets, hotels, and multifamily buildings; the key is the system's ability to tailor cooling and heating to each space via inverter compressors and multiple indoor units.
Entering High-End Install and Service With The HVAC Doctor!
Q: How do you approach learning new equipment and staying current in a fast-evolving field?
Start from basics, break systems into small parts, use modern education channels like social media and formal resources, and build a network of peers for support.
Entering High-End Install and Service With The HVAC Doctor!
Q: What's your take on on-call work and how should technicians manage work-life balance?
On-call can be demanding, but with career progression you can negotiate reduced on-call time and protect family time, prioritizing a sustainable balance as skills and seniority grow.
