First of all HVAC designer should already know HVAC and AutoCAD well.

Any AutoCAD drafter has to work using different layers, and do it wisely. They have to know how to work with external references and layouts, and be ready for new ideas of solving various problems.

That is why it is very important to work in a team. Being in touch with other designers helps to do work correctly and allows to learn something new.

 

Also if person wants to be expert in AutoCAD HVAC drawings they have to study all the time. Nowadays there are plenty of different on-line Internet-based courses which could help to improve drafter's knowledge.
