They typically work on specific aspects of a construction or renovation project, focusing on climate control and air quality systems. HVAC subcontractors are responsible for tasks such as ductwork installation, system troubleshooting, and equipment maintenance, ensuring that all work complies with relevant building codes and regulations. They often collaborate with other trades to ensure seamless integration of HVAC systems within a project.
