HVAC Jobs in Mississippi

Mississippi is an active HVAC hiring market with consistent demand across residential, commercial, and refrigeration segments. Contractors across the state are hiring technicians at all experience levels — from apprentices completing their training hours to seasoned service leads with EPA 608 certification, NATE credentials, and manufacturer-specific authorizations. Demand is driven by the aging residential install base, new construction activity, and the ongoing need for commercial system maintenance and replacement.

Mississippi HVAC contractors are licensed through the state licensing authority, with EPA 608 certification required federally for anyone handling refrigerants. NATE certification is increasingly expected by larger commercial employers. Salary ranges vary by specialization — commercial refrigeration and controls technicians typically command the highest rates, followed by commercial HVAC service and residential replacement. Technicians with heat pump and mini-split experience are in particularly strong demand as the market transitions away from gas-only heating systems.
