Who is it for?

This course is not intended to turn anyone into a fully fledged heating engineer.

Anyone who does not come from a “heating engineering” background will find the course of interest, as will those who have to work with such systems.

What is it about?

The Need for a Heating System This section introduces the need for a heating system and covers subjects including the transfer of heat, design temperatures, piping symbols and heat emitters.

Piping Systems This section explores the types of piping systems available - gravity and pumped and looks in more depth at pipe sizing.

Selecting the Boiler and Pump The selection of boilers and pumps along with pump sizing, characteristics and position are covered in this section. How to balance the system and automatic controls are also introduced.
