Jim has been a full-time technician, as well as a full-time trade school and community college instructor, and administrator, working in and around the refrigeration, HVAC/R, appliance, and facility maintenance fields since 1973. He has facilitated hundreds of training seminars, workshops, and classes in the HVAC/R electrical and refrigeration areas alone, as well as many other workshops in both technical and non-technical areas.

He takes the time to explain theory to you, but it’s not dull or boring. You learn what you need to know and understand because he explains it in a clear, simple manner that eliminates the mystery behind the subjects you need to learn and understand. His background includes a satellite training network for HVAC/R and appliance technicians, and the development and presentation of more than 75 video training programs. He is nationally recognized as one of the HVAC/R and appliance industry’s best-known technical writer and instructor, having written four textbooks for the HVAC/R industry, and 10 technician handbooks… but he is quick to caution people that they shouldn’t be too impressed by that fact.“Book learning is good stuff, no doubt about it,” he says, “but until you put that knowledge to practical use, it isn’t worth much in the field.”

Jim is also a columnist for Indoor Comfort News where he has been providing their troubleshooting feature for over fifteen years. He has also written more than 500 feature articles for trade magazines. And he is also a regular columnist for RSES Journal, HVACR Today, Appliance Service News, and Marcone World Magazine.

His favorite saying? “This stuff ain’t rocket science.”

Students and workshop participants over the years have consistently rated Jim’s ability to communicate and explain things clearly as excellent. He is a member of RSES and ACCA, and is NBI-Certified as a Residential and Light Commercial Air Balancing and Diagnostic Technician. He is a registered proctor for NATE exams, and his workshops, HVAC training videos, and e-book CD’s not only provide a simplified approach to learning about troubleshooting and servicing heating and air conditioning equipment, they also serve as an effective preparation for NATE certification exams.

The bottom line? Jim teaches you what you need to know and makes sure you have some fun in the process.
