Indoor Air Quality and Preventive Maintenance
The high visibility of indoor air quality problems has created
opportunities for knowledgeable HVAC professionals in abroad range of
services. This course is designed to provide the participants with an
overview of indoor air quality issues as well as an understanding of
investigation and mitigation techniques.
Includes materials
You'll learn about:
- Effect of tight buildings on the indoor environment
- Investigating IAQ problems
- Common misconceptions about indoor air quality
- Air sampling / measurement
- ASHRAE standards
- Effective maintenance & source control
International Mechanical Code - Application & Practice
The International Mechanical Code comprehensively regulates mechanical systems and
equipment including HVAC, exhaust systems, air distribution ducts,
boilers, refrigeration, & hydronic piping. This course is designed to
give participants a "working knowledge" for everyday use in
system design, application & service.
Thermodynamics - Troubleshooting Refrigerant Circuits
This course was developed to train technicians in correct methods of
system diagnosis that take the "guess work" out of refrigeration
cycle diagnostics. The Thermodynamics course takes participants through a
review of the basic refrigeration cycle and then builds an in-depth
understanding of superheat and subcooling, and their relation to system
operation. This course will provide even the most experienced technicians
with a greater understanding and ability. The course is conducted in an A
to Z format that makes the information understandable to new technicians and
apprentices as well as seasoned professionals.
You'll learn about:
- Thermodynamic principles
- Proper charging techniques (R-22 + R-410A)
- Superheat and subcooling
- Latent & sensible heat
- Troubleshooting expansion devices, restrictions, improper air flow
Combustion Air & Venting
Topics include:
- Compliance with mechanical codes
- Combustion air requirements and calculations
- Troubleshooting venting & combustion air related problems
- A.G.A., vent sizing tables
- Materials and application
Understanding Airflow
HVAC ASSOCIATES' "understanding Air Flow" is conducted in a
format that makes information understandable to participants with no
previous air side training while promoting greater understanding for
experienced pros. You'll learn how to effectively troubleshoot "air
side" problems in existing systems. You'll also learn basic duct
sizing procedures necessary for proper system installation and operation.
Topics include:
- Terminology & relationship
