Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning in Longmont always talks about how our team of experts are NATE-certified, and while it sounds encouraging, what does it really mean?
NATE is the acronym for North American Technician Excellence and, as stated on their website, is the nation’s largest certification organization for HVAC (heating, ventilation, air conditioning) and refrigeration technicians. The organization is owned, operated, developed, and supported by the entire HVAC and refrigeration industry but not everyone in the industry is required to be certified through NATE. The certification is discretionary and technicians can work in the heating, cooling, ventilation, and refrigeration industry without being NATE-certified.
It’s important to Service Experts that our experts are NATE-certified to ensure we are sending the most qualified and skilled technicians into your home. To make sure professionals meet these standards, the NATE-certification tests validate real-world working knowledge of HVAC and refrigeration systems for technicians. The exams are knowledge-based exams that assess the technician’s knowledge of these standards.
Since Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning focuses on the HVAC side of NATE-certification (not refrigeration), there are only specific areas applicable to our technicians.
