About KC Mechanical
KC Mechanical is a locally owned Vermont company that’s been serving restaurants, schools, and facilities for nearly 30 years. We specialize in commercial kitchen appliance, refrigeration, and HVAC service and installation — keeping local businesses running smoothly year-round.
We’re a small, skilled team — not a big corporate chain — and we take pride in doing quality work while treating our people right.
Why This Is a Great Fit
If you’ve built your career as a mechanic, oil burner tech, HVAC tech, plumber, refrigeration, or appliance technician, your skills are highly transferable here. Many of our best technicians came from those trades — they’re great with combustion, controls, and troubleshooting, and they love the variety and stability of our work.
As oil work and residential heating decline in Vermont, this is a great opportunity to pivot your trade skills into a steady, year-round field that’s growing. We’ll train you on commercial kitchen and refrigeration systems so you can build a career with long-term stability and local routes.
What You’ll Do
Diagnose and repair commercial kitchen, refrigeration, and HVAC systems.
Perform preventive maintenance and occasional installations.
Communicate clearly with customers and document work professionally.
Work independently, locally, and as part of a supportive team.
What We’re Looking For
2+ years of experience in a mechanical trade: oil burner, HVAC, refrigeration, plumbing, appliance repair, or similar.
Strong understanding of combustion, electrical, or control systems.
Willingness to learn new systems (commercial kitchen & refrigeration).
Clean driving record, reliability, and professionalism.
What We Offer
$30–$45/hr based on experience.
Take-home company van.
Health insurance, paid holidays, and PTO.
Local routes only – no out-of-state travel.
Career growth and training in HVAC and refrigeration service.
