Mechanical Engineer w/HVAC Expertise

Mechanical Engineers with HVAC expertise are professionals who specialize in the design of heating, cooling, and refrigeration systems for all types of residential, commercial, and industrial buildings.

Mechanical Engineers with HVAC expertise play an important role in the building industry, ensuring the design, installation, and operation of HVAC/R systems are properly fitted to meet the required specifications for old buildings being retrofitted as well as newly constructed buildings. Mechanical Engineers, sometimes known as HVAC Engineers, are responsible for taking into account the clients' needs and designing a system that fulfills the project requirements within the given budget standards. These Engineers determine the scope of a client's project and make sure it is completed within the given deadline. Along with project design, they can oversee the fabrication and testing of systems, applying their HVAC/R expertise and troubleshooting skills to ensure delivery of higher quality HVAC/R systems. They can also be involved in the research and development efforts of emerging technologies and seek to incorporate those technologies into system design. Many Mechanical Engineers with HVAC expertise work for consulting or design firms, government agencies, facilities offices, or HVAC equipment sales offices. These individuals demonstrate a high degree of mechanical aptitude and a talent for math.
