What a HVAC service technician job ad is for
A job ad has one job: get a good tech to reach out. Long ads lose people on a phone screen. Lead with the thing HVAC techs care about most, such as a take-home van, no commission pressure or a fair on-call rotation, then the pay, then how to apply in one step. Keep the full duties for the job description you send once they call.
