Honeywell is presenting over 50 of its popular one day Installer Training Courses throughout the UK and Northern Ireland during the first half of 2010.
The Course was recently updated extensively to include all the latest aspects of heating controls, installations, energy conservation and updates to Building Regulations. It combines theory with practical wiring, such as on S and Y Plan installations, and fault finding exercises which installers will find invaluable when on site.
At just £30, it represents excellent value for installers. It provides continuing support for the Professional Development Programme of the Chartered Institute of Plumbing and Heating Engineering (CIPHE) and the Institute of Domestic Heating and Environmental Engineers (IDHEE).
Each course is presented and guided by Honeywell experts. They begin by explaining the heating control fundamentals: how they work, their practical and energy efficiency benefits, and which are best for particular installations.
There are special sections on wireless controls which make installation faster and easier, Smartfit low voltage controls which feature “plug in” connections, and controls for underfloor heating.
There is advice on upgrading existing systems to the standards now required by Building Regulations. The course explains how to create independent heating zones either using zone valves or a wireless CM Zone system which has the benefit that there is no need to change existing pipe work.
