National Technology Transfer, Inc.


Delivery Method
Seminar
Seminar

Target Audience
HVAC maintenance and Repair Technicians, Plant and facility maintenance technicians, Building engineers, others

Summary
Learn how to maintain peak efficiencies of heating & ventilation (HV) systems while minimizing the risk of downtime due to unscheduled maintenance and repair

Description/Agenda

Learn how to maintain peak efficiencies of heating & ventilation (HV) systems while minimizing the risk of downtime due to unscheduled maintenance and repair. Since HV system problems are electrical, this heating and ventilation training teaches you about the proper procedures and equipment for electrical safety testing. Electrical test meters are also important. If you take a Lab-based training program, these skills are practiced in hands-on exercises with the actual type of test instruments, such as an ohmmeter, voltmeter and ammeter.

Continuing Education Units (CEUs) and Contact Hours
Upon completion of this training program, the attendee will receive a certificate of completion. Please contact your state or local licensing agency to determine if this training program is accepted for Continuing Education recognition by the agency.
