Gamechanger Heat Pump Training Event

Introducing the Gamechanger Heat Pump Training Event! This class should be called how to design heat pumps so that customers’ bill don’t increase, and the customer rips the heat pump out, but we decided against it. Heat pump are incentivized by the federal government to reduce combustion gas emissions in our communities. With this historic investment going into our communities, position your business to be the best at installing and servicing heat pump systems. This course is designed for novice and experienced technicians and contractors looking to increase their knowledge of Heat Pumps. This course is an excellent preparation course for multiple industry certification exams including BPI (Building Performance Institute) Air Conditioning and Heat Pump Technician and the NATE (North American Technical Excellence) Heat Pump Technician Exam, and ESCO Institute exams. The course also qualifies for continuous education credits for those already holding industry certifications. At the end of this course, the attendees will have the ability to design, select, install, and service air source heat pump systems.

HVAC U’s Gamechanger Heat Pump Training course has been recognized by the U.S. Department of Energy as “Energy Skilled” in the categories of Heat Pump Installation.
