How good are these for HVAC work?

They do offer some protection, but ideally you want two things these don't have.1) Protection from cuts on the edge of metal sheeting from a glove with a kevlar palm and fingers.2) Superior grip of smooth metal from finger tips coated in rubber or silicone.However, both of these things add to the cost of a glove, and they will still wear out with regular use so the level of protection you want has to be weighed against the cost to have it.In some parts of the work like fabrication you might be working a lot with sheet metal screws. In that case you might also want a 2nd pair of gloves with a finger or two cut out for best grasp of small screws.

I can't vouch for their efficacy for that line of work. They are a tight fitting, flexible glove. I actually bought mine to use as light/medium weight motorcycle gloves.

HI, I would not use them for masonary work, fine for anything else though including hardened metals.

I agree with the other answers. I find them comfortable in the 40-70 degree range. Lower than 40 degrees and they would help, but their primary function is protection, not warmth. I have used them in 90 degree weather where the are warm but not unbearable. I use them primarily for home construction and they have saved me from cuts and bruises many times.

They should be great for your application. You can get dimmers for these and you will need a transformer if you will run on AC.

Yes, I work in an industrial plant. They work fine in a noisey environment .

I have had no issues with moisture, etc. so i would say they are as air-tight as needed for standard household usage.

I understand your concern in regards to getting hot, but I believe you should be fine with these. I ran a half marathon in these and never got over-heated.

I've used them extensively doing work both inside and out. They are excellent when it comes to keeping debris out of your eyes, even small dust from wood and fiberglass. Since it's been very cold up here in the North East, outside work requires some adjustments to the heat and cold changes; sometimes they fog up for a bit until they acclimate. Great glasses, I've been through a number of different kinds, but these are a keeper.

Been using these for 8 years now and airflow is fine. Just keep them clean and it filters great. I have had no issues in the eight years of use. They are not that thick, just filter. I change monthly.

They work pretty well, the nose hole lets out most of the heat and the mouth part just lets fresh air in.. Ive had nothing but good responses from these, I sell them at refineries when I go work

I have been using mine for carpentry projects and they work fairly well. For best results I use them with earplugs.So far no airplane rides.

I have these installed in a motorhome. I dont use them a lot but after a year they work fine. I dont know how well they would hold up being outside with the humidity.

I use mine for woodworking and they are very good for that; I don't know if they'd meet a machinists tolerances but I've found them to be true for my needs.

No they hold up well but for the price they are meant for above average task

Very. Well above average. With moderate use, previous pair lasted several years.

Should be fine. They have been fired at a much higher temp. They are made for the heat. We use ours for everything.
