Baxi launches air source heat pump training

Baxi has launched its full suite of air source heat pump training courses to support heating engineers and installers, as it looks to become more familiar with and qualified to install the technology.

The new ASHP courses, which are available at Baxi’s network of training centres across the UK, offer practical, hands-on training, all delivered by Baxi’s accredited training experts.

Luke Nicholls, director at Renew East, who took part in a Baxi ASHP product day course, said: “The training that Baxi provided, even as an experienced air source heat pump engineer, was great.

“The tutors really knew their stuff and the product. They made us feel really comfortable with the product before it arrived on site. My advice to any installer looking to get into air source heat pumps is get yourself on a training course.”

The course offs the chance for those wanting to gain their Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS) accreditation, BPEC’s accredited ASHP Course, the opportunity to achieve it.

BPEC course applicants can now take advantage of the new government Heat Training Grant of up to £500 towards the cost of training.

Harriet Evans, renewables director at Baxi, said: “We are so pleased to be able to bring our full suite of tried and tested heat pump training to installers across the UK. At Baxi, we are always committed to being a trusted partner to installers, and part of this is ensuring we are fully supporting them every step of the way in the transition to heat pumps.”
