Oklahoma
You need a license to do mechanical contracting work in
Oklahoma. To apply for a license, contact the Department of
Health at http://www.health.state.ok.us/cib/index.html.
The Division issues mechanical contractor and journeyman
licenses for these trades:
HVAC unlimited (over 25 tons and 500,000 Btu)
Natural gas piping
HVAC limited (under 25 tons and 500,000 Btu or less)
Sheet metal
Refrigeration
Process piping
Applicants must pass exams to get any mechanical license. To
qualify for a contractor's exam, an applicant must have four
years of work experience. To qualify for a journeyman's exam, an
applicant must have three years of work experience.
The exams are given by Experior, which can be reached at http://www.experioronline.com/.
Once an applicant has passed the exam, the applicant must
provide proof of workers' compensation insurance, a $5,000
license bond, and $50,000 liability in order to receive an
active contractor's license. If the applicant decides not to pay
these, he/she will receive an inactive license. The inactive
license functions the same as a journeyman's license.
