Unvented Hot Water Systems and Safety Course

£185.00

Costs shown exclude VAT, which will be applied at the current rate.

This Hot Water System & Safety (including Unvented Hot Water Systems) course is designed to provide you with all you need to know about Hot Water Systems and Safety (formerly known as Unvented systems or “G3”).

This course covers all hot water systems, replacing the previous LOGIC Certified hot water course to incorporate the recently revised G3 Building Regulation.

It is also a prerequisite for those looking to expand into solar thermal installation. As well as the content of the previous unvented hot water systems training the course also includes the new requirements for both vented and unvented systems under G3.

The Hot Water Systems and Safety certificate is recognised by those Competent Person Schemes (CPS) approved to offer a self-certification scheme under Approved document G (ADG), enabling installers of hot water systems (including Unvented HWS) to self-certify the installation.

Course Description

This course is aimed at experienced domestic heating installers and/or plumbers who require a qualification in the installation, servicing and maintenance of domestic hot water systems. It is also a prerequisite for those looking to expand into solar thermal installation. It has been developed to ensure operatives comply with Approved Document G (ADG) 2010 (as updated) when carrying out work on hot water systems. Training includes requirements for the installation of G3 Unvented Hot Water Systems and covers systems up to 500 litres capacity and 45kW power input.

Ideally candidates will be experienced in the installation of domestic hot and cold water systems. It is also recommended that they have experience and / or qualifications in one or more fuel types e.g. gas, oil or solid fuel.

A basic knowledge of the WRAS Water (fittings) Regulations is desirable although not essential and this course is available separately if required.

On successful completion of this course it will enable you to self-certify your installations and give you a competitive edge showing your customers that you are trained to the highest of standards increasing your credibility.

Re-assessment is available for candidates whose qualification has expired within the last 12 months.
