HVAC can provide a sustainable lifestyle; but you must first determine what is best for you. It may not be HVAC. Salary shouldn't be the only thing that motivates you. You can make a good salary and dislike your work. I think the best situation is to find employment in an area that truly fits your career goals and let this dictate your lifestyle.

I worked in Marriott's hospitality industry for almost 10 years in their maintenance department and got to know these companies and the people that work for them.
Working for a hotel chain you have to call HVAC guys very often for support and you get to know them.
If you work for a quality company you can support yourself and your family.
Many of those long time people I worked with held those same jobs the entire time I did that role and will be there long after I am gone holding those careers due to the experience they obtain through the years.
