Job Description

Here is work for a technician who can find a leak fast and gas a system up properly, with the air-conditioning maintenance company in Springs. Good for someone who wants to build a solid track record they can put on their CV.

This post is Springs-based, with most of your time spent at an air-conditioning maintenance company.

The work, day to day

  • Service cold rooms, display fridges and freezers on planned maintenance routes
  • Complete service reports on a tablet and have the site manager sign them
  • Install split units, cassettes and ducted systems, including brazing and vacuum work
  • Diagnose faulty compressors, fans, contactors and control boards
  • Commission new systems and show the client how to use the controls
  • Replace thermostatic expansion valves and electronic controllers

Must-haves

  • Brazing, flaring and vacuum skills you can demonstrate
  • Understanding of single- and three-phase control circuits
  • Refrigeration and air-conditioning trade test or an NQF 4 occupational certificate
  • At least 2 years servicing commercial or residential systems

Nice if you have

  • Building management system alarm handling
  • Experience with VRF systems or chillers
  • CO2 transcritical refrigeration experience in retail stores

What you get

  • Standby pay for weekend fridge breakdowns
  • Gauge manifold, vacuum pump and recovery unit issued to you
  • Company vehicle with a fitted tool rack

How to apply

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): refrigeration trade or occupational certificate, a clear copy of your ID plus SAQCC Gas card.
  3. Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
