HVAC Jobs in Las Vegas, NV

Las Vegas sits in the Mojave Desert, where summer temperatures regularly exceed 115°F and dry heat accelerates equipment wear differently than humid climates. The hospitality and gaming industry creates a substantial commercial HVAC segment — large hotels, casinos, and convention centers run complex chilled-water and district cooling systems that require specialized skills beyond residential service. Residential demand is also strong in the suburban growth corridors of Henderson and North Las Vegas.

Nevada HVAC contractors are licensed through the Nevada State Contractors Board. Technicians working in Las Vegas should expect exposure to commercial refrigeration in addition to standard HVAC, given the food-service density on and off the Strip. EPA 608 Universal certification is effectively a baseline requirement. Employers in this market often offer higher base wages than the national median to compensate for the challenging outdoor working conditions in summer.
