Ground Source & Air Source Heat Pumps
GROUND SOURCE & AIR SOURCE HEAT PUMPS
Our Heat pump training (along with the LTHHWS) allows successful learners to design, specify, install and maintain low-temperature heating systems incorporating heat pumps (both ground and air source).
Training will cover domestic and small commercial applications of air and ground source technologies and the requirements for application to the MCS.
The course is suitable for those wishing to enter the renewables sector, and is a necessary requirement to join the MCS.
Training takes place over five days, providing pre-requisites are met. However, we can tailor the course to suit and provide any extra training required.
LCL awards have designed the course to help build up a skilled workforce to help meet the government’s 600,000 heat pump installations annually target.
