“If we can’t make it better for the technician in the field, then we don’t do it.”

Fieldpiece didn’t start with the goal of leading an industry. Actually, they started with the idea that every HVACR professional in the field needs the best tools possible. It’s a simple premise, and one that they’ve held tightly to as they’ve grown into a best-in-class innovator of industry-leading tools for HVACR pros over the last 30+ years.

In each member of the Fieldpiece team, you’ll find an inquisitive explorer always looking for a better way to do things. In fact, they got their start when founder, Rey Harju, had a vision for a stick meter with detachable heads that technicians could swap out to take different readings. There was nothing like it on the market, but when the idea came to Rey while driving home from work one day, he knew techs in the field needed this single versatile, flexible and expandable tool that could run multiple diagnostic tests.

So, Rey set out to create this tool. And in 1990, after three years of testing, development and refinement in his garage, the HS24 stick meter was born. Since then, Fieldpiece has continued to develop game-changing technology like the SMAN® Digital Manifold that forever altered the way technicians work, their wireless Job Link® System probes that make testing easier, and a host of meters and detectors that continue to define the industry.

How do they know what techs in the field need? Because they are out there with them every day. There is no disconnect between the engineers in their building and the professionals in the field. When they develop a new feature or roll-out a new product, it’s because they know it will solve a problem techs confront every day.

As hard as they’ve worked to develop new products, they work just as hard to develop their people. Countless members of the Fieldpiece team started working in their facility right out of high school and were encouraged their continued growth and development through college degrees in fields from physics to industrial engineering. Fieldpiece is also focused on keeping their workplace forward-thinking by encouraging their people to read and grow on their own.

Today, after more than 30 years in the industry, they’ve accomplished many firsts. They also remain the only company dedicated exclusively to this unique market.

Fieldpiece leads in the way they think, how they work, how they treat their people, and how they remain laser-focused on creating products that empower HVACR professionals – today and tomorrow.
