Attention to detail, problem-solving abilities, and good communication skills help distinguish top performers in this field. These skills are crucial for ensuring homes are energy efficient, safe, and comfortable for occupants while meeting industry standards.

  • Ability to complete detailed and accurate documentation.
  • Strong communication and customer-service skills.
  • Ability to work independently and manage a daily field schedule.

  • Ability to bend, kneel, crouch, climb, and stand for extended periods.
  • Ability to lift and carry up to 50 pounds.
  • Ability to work indoors and outdoors in varying weather conditions.

Other Requirements
