Overview

The Moultonborough campus is the newest location of The New Hampshire School of Mechanical Trades and expands the school’s mechanical-trades training into the Lakes Region. The school began developing the location after identifying demand from companies struggling to find trained tradespeople in northern and central New Hampshire. It selected the 67 Whittier Highway site in 2025 and held a grand-opening event in February 2026.

The campus is now included alongside Manchester and Hampton as one of the school’s three official locations.

Students can pursue many of the same trade categories available elsewhere in the school system, including plumbing, electrical, heating, air conditioning and fuel gas.

Programs Offered

Schoolwide training available through the NH School of Mechanical Trades includes:

• Plumbing 101
• Plumbing Apprentice Years 1–4
• Electrical 101
• Electrical Apprentice Years 1–4
• Oil Heat Technician
• Air Conditioning Technician
• HVAC Equipment Installer
• HVAC Service Technician
• Gas Piping Installer
• Gas Equipment Installer
• Gas Service Technician
• License-renewal and continuing-education courses

Not every course runs at every campus each semester, so Lakes Region students should check the current schedule.

Plumbing Apprenticeship

The Moultonborough location already has upcoming apprentice training scheduled.

For example, Plumbing Year 1 — Lakes Region is currently scheduled to begin September 22, 2026, meeting Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 5:30–9:30 p.m. for 19 weeks.

Published tuition is:

• Year 1 — $1,600
• Year 2 — $1,635

An active apprentice card is required for the apprenticeship sequence.

• Oil Heat Technician — $2,640
• HVAC Equipment Installer — $2,800

Tuition & Financial Aid

The school relies primarily on direct tuition and interest-free installment plans, rather than prominently advertising federal financial aid.

Down payments vary by course, and the remaining balance can generally be spread across weekly payments.

Student Reviews

Based on your listing data:

⭐ Average Rating: 5.0 (1 Review)

Because this location is new and has only one review, the rating is far too small a sample to use as a meaningful quality measure.

Enrollment Tips

• Verify that your course is actually scheduled at the Lakes Region campus
• Take advantage of the school tour before enrolling
• Plumbing and electrical apprentices should confirm apprentice-card requirements
• Ask exactly which state educational hours each course provides
• Consider combining qualifying HVAC courses to receive the published discount

Bottom Line

The Moultonborough campus is an important addition to New Hampshire’s trade-school landscape because it brings HVAC, plumbing, electrical and gas training directly into the Lakes Region. Since the location only recently opened, its public review history is still extremely limited, but the campus benefits from the established curriculum and licensing-focused structure already used by the school’s Manchester and Hampton locations.
