Principles are the same, but in practice they are different.
one more question,we were told that we have to have 3 years hvac experience to take the state exam to get a state license,i know all this is true,but we were told that our 9 months schooling will count as 2 years of experience and after we finish school all we need os one year of experience out in the field to add 2 our 9 months of schooling to equal 3 years of expience. is it true that 9 months of schooling=2 years work experience? Not here. It may be in your area. Since you did not put your location in your post or profile, no one can answer that.
by the way yall this whole program at our school is learning the residental work,just lettin yall know since this is the residental hvac section of the forum.
