When most people think about air conditioning, they think of comfort—walking into a cool building on a hot summer day or maintaining the perfect environment for critical operations in hospitals, data centres, and commercial spaces. But behind every perfectly cooled space is a team of skilled professionals keeping the systems running. And for those seeking a rewarding and stable career path, the air conditioning industry offers more than meets the eye.
