There is a skills gap in the skilled trade industries and Ohio employers in those industries are struggling to find and maintain qualified employees. By completing the HVAC Technician course at Northview Trade School, you can become certified and be ready to work immediately upon graduation!
Ohio HVAC Workforce Size & Demand:
- Ohio employs approximately 14,450-14,700 HVAC technicians, making it one of the top HVAC employment states in the Midwest.
- HVAC employment in Ohio is projected to grow >6% through 2032, adding over 1,300 annual job openings statewide due to growth and workforce replacement.
- Replacement hiring (retirements, turnover, exits) is the primary driver of openings, not just new construction growth.
- More than 40% of HVAC workers are age 45 or older, placing Ohio on the same retirement trajectory as the national HVAC workforce.
- Contractors across Ohio report open tech positions that stay unfilled for months, especially during summer and winter peaks.
Ohio HVAC Wages & Competition:
- The average HVAC technician wage in Ohio is $29-30/hour ($55,000-$60,000 annually).
- EPA 608 certification is federally mandatory for refrigerant handling and is now widely expected before hire, not after.
- Ohio contractors increasingly favor techs with the following certifications and graduates of the HVAC courses will receive all three:
- EPA 608 Universal
- OSHA 10 (jobsite safety)
- NATE Ready-to-work credentials to reduce onboarding risk and training costs.
