How to Get Certified in Charlotte

North Carolina does not require registration or certification of technicians, but Federal law requires EPA 608 certification. HVAC contractors must have one of three available licenses: heating group 1 (all systems), heating group 2 (over 15 tons), or heating group 3 (under 15 tons).

Eligibility requirements for licensure include two years or 4,000 hours of job experience in the relevant category. Half of the required experience can be met by acquiring 30 semester hours in an accredited HVAC technical program.

Once the requirements have been satisfied, an application, fee, and background check must be submitted. A time will then be scheduled to take the exam.
