Unvented Hot Water Systems

UNVENTED HOT WATER SYSTEMS (G3)

For years, the UK has met hot water demand in a variety of ways. Many traditional installations continue to work in homes and offices to this day, from gas and oil to solid fuel and electricity. However, with the ever-evolving industry, there are more options than ever before.

Yet, renewable energy technology in the replacement market creates challenges, from the difficulties faced installing in existing premises and the ever-changing technology to understanding and utilising realistic energy-saving options and ensuring all technology is compliant.

This training program has been designed for plumbing and heating engineers to demonstrate understanding and competency in installing, servicing, and maintaining domestic hot water systems.

Assessment takes place through multiple-choice assessments, scenario questions and observed practical tasks.

We deliver training as part of our ACS Gas & Renewables Training Course. However, it can also be undertaken by existing gas and heating engineers as an add-on course.

Qualification renewal is required every five years.

Up to 31st December 2020 Regulated qualifications and UKAS Accredited certificates of competence issued in the UK were widely recognised by other EU member states. However since the UK’s withdrawal from the EU, individual member states that previously recognised a UK qualification may now no longer do so. Learners undertaking qualifications on the basis that it is recognised by an EU member state should in the first instance make enquiries with the relevant bodies in that Country to confirm its recognition status.
