What does an HVAC staffing agency do?

An HVAC staffing agency sources, screens, verifies, and presents certified HVAC technicians to mechanical contractors, facilities operators, and data-center and building owners. GlobalCybers is a permanent-only HVAC staffing agency, every placement is a full-time, direct hire onto your payroll. We verify EPA Section 608 certification, which federal law requires before a technician may handle refrigerant, and the state HVAC licence, TDLR ACR in Texas, the Conditioned Air licence in Georgia, an AZ ROC C-39 in Arizona, against the issuing authority before any shortlist. NATE certification and OSHA cards are confirmed where your work calls for them. RPO at $2,999/mo, or Direct Hire at 12–20% of first-year salary on a successful hire only.

Hiring temps for the season?

Need permanent HVAC technicians instead of seasonal temps?

Here is why permanent placement usually costs less over a service year: an agency's hourly markup (typically 35–60%) is charged on every hour for as long as the seat stays open, and each rotation means re-verifying EPA 608, re-issuing tools and a van, and putting a stranger in front of your maintenance customers. A permanent, certified technician is a one-time fee, keeps the customer relationships that renew your service agreements, and is there for the next cooling season.

Credential Verification

Every Licence Verified Before Delivery

Unverified hvac technicians never appear on a shortlist. We check directly against the issuing authority, not self-reported documentation.

EPA Section 608, federally mandatory

Federal law requires EPA Section 608 certification before a technician handles refrigerant, and violations carry civil penalties of up to $44,539 per day. We confirm the certification type (Type I, II, III, or Universal) against the certifying organisation, never from a self-reported card.

EPA 608UniversalType I–III

State HVAC licence

HVAC licensing is per-state and we verify with the authority that actually issues it: TDLR for the Texas ACR licence, the Construction Industry Licensing Board's Conditioned Air division in Georgia, and the Registrar of Contractors' C-39 classification in Arizona. Active status and any disciplinary hold are confirmed before shortlist.

TDLR ACRGA Conditioned AirAZ ROC C-39

NATE certification & OSHA cards

NATE certification is voluntary but is what separates a lead technician from a competent one, and we confirm it with NATE alongside OSHA 10/30 cards verified against DOL-authorised provider records.

NATEOSHA 30

Background, drug screening & E-Verify

County, state, and federal checks run FCRA-compliant, 5- or 10-panel drug screening aligned to your service or jobsite policy, and Form I-9 with E-Verify completed before start date.

Employer Value

What an Unfilled HVAC Seat Costs, and How We Cut It

An open technician seat means missed service calls, an install backlog, and, on a critical-facilities book, a chiller nobody is watching. Here is what the delay costs, and how every GlobalCybers placement removes it.

48 hrs
Days, not weeks, to fill

A verified 3–5 shortlist of EPA 608 certified technicians lands within 48 hours of a complete brief, instead of the weeks a service book runs short and calls slip to next week.

$44,539
The refrigerant penalty you avoid

Federal civil penalties for improper refrigerant handling run up to $44,539 per day. Every technician's EPA 608 certification is confirmed with the certifying organisation before you see a profile.

$0
Upfront on Direct Hire

Pay only when you hire, at 12–20% of first-year salary. RPO is a flat $2,999/month for continuous HVAC hiring, with no per-hire fee.

90 days
A bad fit is not a sunk cost

If a placed technician leaves or is let go within 90 days, we source a replacement free, so one wrong hire does not cost you a cooling season.

Screening & Compliance

Every HVAC Technician, Fully Vetted

Before a hvac technician reaches your shortlist we confirm the licence, safety cards, and right to work, so you take on a fully de-risked hire.

State licence & credentials

Every state licence and certification confirmed active against the issuing authority, never self-reported.

Safety cards

OSHA 10/30 and trade safety cards (e.g. NFPA 70E) verified against DOL-authorised provider records.

Background & drug screening

County, state, and federal checks run FCRA-compliant, plus 5- or 10-panel drug screening aligned to your jobsite policy.

Right-to-work & E-Verify

Form I-9 completed and E-Verify confirmed before start date, so every placement is work-authorized.

Insurance & liability. GlobalCybers carries general and professional liability cover, and every direct-hire placement goes onto your payroll as a W-2 employee, keeping worker-classification risk inside a compliant process.

FAQ

HVAC Technician Staffing Agency FAQ

How quickly can you deliver an HVAC shortlist?

A verified shortlist of 3–5 EPA 608 certified technicians is delivered within 48 hours of a complete brief. Every candidate's EPA 608 certification and state HVAC licence is verified against the issuing authority before you see a profile.

Do you place temporary or contract HVAC technicians?

No. GlobalCybers is a permanent placement agency only. Every technician goes directly onto your payroll as a full-time employee, backed by a 90-day replacement guarantee. We do not place temp, travel, or contract technicians.

Is EPA 608 certification actually mandatory?

Yes, and it is federal, not optional. Under Section 608 of the Clean Air Act a technician may not handle refrigerant without certification, and improper handling carries civil penalties of up to $44,539 per day. We confirm the certification type, Type I, II, III, or Universal, with the certifying organisation before any technician reaches your shortlist. A self-reported card is not verification.

How do you verify HVAC licences across different states?

HVAC licensing is per-state, so we verify with the authority that issues it: TDLR for the Texas ACR licence, the Georgia Construction Industry Licensing Board's Conditioned Air division, and the Arizona Registrar of Contractors' C-39 Air Conditioning classification, among others. We confirm active status with no disciplinary hold, and we match the licence to the state your work sits in rather than assuming a national credential.

What do HVAC technicians earn, and how should we budget an offer?

Per BLS OEWS May 2025 (SOC 49-9021), the national HVAC median is $61,010 ($29.33/hr) across 409,670 technicians, with the range running $40,050 (P10) to $95,210 (P90), and BLS projects 8% growth and about 40,100 openings a year. Metro spread is what actually sets your offer: Chicago runs a $77,960 median and New York $77,990, while Phoenix sits at $61,170 and Atlanta at $58,970. We benchmark every offer to the metro.

How does the 90-day guarantee work?

If a placed HVAC technician voluntarily leaves or is terminated for performance within 90 days of start, we source a qualified replacement at no additional cost. It covers both RPO and Direct Hire, and excludes role elimination, restructuring, or redundancy.
