Books and Guides

Knowledge is the most valuable tool in your bag. Invest in your career with our selection of industry-standard HVAC/R books, field guides, and reference manuals. From the acclaimed AC Service Tech series by Craig Migliaccio to essential BPI and HERS certification guides, we carry the educational resources you need to master modern systems and advance your trade.

Why do experienced technicians still buy HVAC books?

The HVAC industry evolves rapidly with new technologies like inverter mini-splits and variable refrigerant flow (VRF) systems. Even seasoned pros rely on updated field guides and reference manuals to troubleshoot complex modern equipment efficiently, reduce callbacks, and stay compliant with changing energy codes.

What are the best books for HVAC apprentices?

For those starting out, we highly recommend the "Refrigerant Charging and Service Procedures" series by AC Service Tech. These books (and their accompanying workbooks) break down complex thermodynamic concepts into clear, step-by-step procedures with practical visuals, making them the gold standard for trade education.

Does TruTech Tools carry study guides for BPI and HERS certifications?

Yes. We stock the official BPI Building Science Principles Reference Guide and the HERS Handbook. These are critical resources for energy auditors and home performance professionals preparing for certification exams or looking to deepen their understanding of building envelope science.

Why buy technical books from TruTech Tools?

We don't sell generic textbooks; we sell the practical, field-tested guides written by industry legends like Russ King, Craig Migliaccio, and Bryan Orr. These are the books that real technicians keep in their trucks for daily reference, covering everything from airflow dynamics to business growth strategies.
