About the film

The HVACR industry is one that is full of opportunity and professional growth but there is one problem, a lack of awareness. The film “Hot Commodity” showcases the lives of different individuals that are currently working in the HVACR industry and tells their stories on how they found their way to it. Additionally, the film highlights the demand for skilled people to enter the workforce and highlights the vast array of careers that are present in the indispensable industry.

The film features interviews with different industry leaders and employees that share personal stories on their path to their current roles, the growing demand for new talent to the industry and the limitless possibilities that can come with a decision to enter the industry. “Hot Commodity” aims to combat stigmas surrounding skilled labor and trade professions and highlights this alternative path as a very viable option for people to consider when making decisions on a career path.

There is untapped potential out there for anybody who is interested in the trade. Whether you’re coming out of college, whether you’re coming out of high school. Whether you’re going to work from the bottom up or start in the middle on the management side. Whatever that is.
