what kind of money do hvac contractors make?

Answer 1

It really depends on where you work, what type of work you do, and how you advertise. If you work for a company that builds houses and you're doing basic construction, you're going to make less than the HVAC contractor who oversees the HVAC for a large office building or mall. Focus on what you like doing and what you're comfortable with, then branch out as you're able.
