HVAC / Gas fitter Apprentice – For Those Who Want to Learn It Right
Location: Saanichton, BC
Company: Pacific Fireplaces - Heating & Cooling
Who We Are
Pacific Fireplaces has been a trusted name in fireplaces and heat pumps in Greater Victoria for over 25 years. We are known for doing things properly—no shortcuts, no guesswork, and no gimmicks. We specialize in ductless heat pumps, gas, wood, and electric fireplaces, and we take pride in being the company that people call when they want things done safely, efficiently, and professionally.
We're looking for someone who wants to build a career—not just collect a pay cheque. If you're reliable, mechanically inclined, and have a strong sense of personal responsibility, we'll invest the time and training to help you grow into a skilled, ticketed trades person.
What This Role Involves
You are expected to start assisting experienced gas fitters and HVAC techs. You'll be involved in real installs from day one—not just cleanup duty. This is a hands-on, fast-paced environment where attention to detail, safety, and respect for the customer's home are non-negotiable.
Your key responsibilities may include:
- Top priority: Working toward your "C" Ticket (Appliance Service Technician – Class B) (Online Course)
- Assisting in installations of gas, wood, and electric fireplaces
- Assisting in the installation and commissioning of ductless heat pumps
- Learning to troubleshoot and understand gas & electronic controls
- Using and maintaining proper tools and equipment
- Working in customers' homes with the professionalism and courtesy we expect from all our staff
- Participating in warehouse receiving, cleanup, and seasonal work (especially summer shop projects)
- Heavy lifting and physical work
- Problem-solving and taking initiative where appropriate
What We're Looking For
We're not just looking for a warm body—we're looking for someone with:
- A good head on their shoulders
- Common sense
- Curiosity about how systems work
- The humility to ask questions, and the drive to get better every day
Minimum Requirements:
- Grade 12 diploma or equivalent
- Valid Class 5 or 7 BC Driver's License in good standing
- Comfortable with hand and power tools
- Ability to take direction, ask questions, and absorb technical information
- Respectful demeanor and tidy appearance—our work is in people's homes
- Technical aptitude—interest in electrical, gas, and refrigeration systems
- Residential construction experience is a major asset
- Electrical, Gas or HVAC experience
Why This Might Be a Great Fit
This role is ideal for someone who:
- Wants to work with their hands and solve real-world problems
- Feels frustrated by sloppy work or half-baked solutions
- Gets satisfaction from leaving a clean, properly working system & happy clients
- Sees the trades as a long-term, rewarding career—not just a pit stop
What We Offer
- Apprenticeship sponsorship (Class "C" Gasfitter, Class B Gasfitter and/or Refrigeration / AC Mechanic)
- On-the-job mentorship by experienced professionals
- Exposure to both gas fitting and HVAC—rare in most shops
- A respectful, no-nonsense work environment where competence is valued
- Steady work, interesting projects, and a long-term place to grow
To Apply:
Please submit your resume and a short cover letter telling us why you think you'd be a good fit for this position. Be honest. If you're driven but green, that's fine—we can work with that. If you already have some experience, even better.
Job Types: Full-time, Apprenticeship
Pay: $20.00-$35.00 per hour
Benefits:
- Company car
- Company events
- Dental care
- Extended health care
- Store discount
- Tuition reimbursement
