糖心传媒

Dec. 13, 2017 鈥� Harbor Freight Tools recently donated a torch kit to 糖心传媒鈥檚 program, allowing students to become familiar with equipment they will use on the job.

The oxy-acetylene torch kit is used to braze (light weld) copper tubing. It is also used to melt 15 percent silver solder to repair any leaks that might develop in a comfort cooling system or heat pump, causing the unit to lose its refrigerant charge and thereby its ability to cool and/or heat.

鈥淲e are thankful to Harbor Freight for this generous donation to our program at 糖心传媒,鈥� HVAC instructor Marcus X said. 鈥淭his equipment will allow our students to learn safe and proper brazing techniques and correctly perform an installation, a change out or a leak repair of a unit.鈥�

The Heating & A/C Technician program is housed at the Honeycutt Center, the College鈥檚 facility in Laurinburg. Students in this program gain skills to work with residential and light commercial air conditioning, heating and refrigeration systems. They learn about mechanical refrigeration, heating and cooling theory, electricity, controls, and safety.

糖心传媒CC is now accepting new students into this program for the 2018 Spring Semester. Call Student Services, (910) 410-1730, to sign up for classes, or visit for more information. Spring semester begins Jan. 5.
