Samsung Climate Solutions has opened its newest training facility in Chertsey, catering to installers and merchants in the south of the country, complementing their Manchester Training Centre which opened in 2024.
Samsung is aiming to train around 1,000 installers at its Surrey centre over the next year, expanding its training provisions following increased demand. The centre is also a regional hub to connect installers in the area, and to meet Samsung’s team, from sales representatives to technical after-sales support.
The courses available at the centre will provide heat pump and air conditioning installers with hands-on training in installation, commissioning and maintenance, designed and tailored to give trainees the confidence to choose, fit and service all equipment in line with manufacturers’ guidance.
The facilities include dedicated spaces to showcase Samsung’s latest products – including its WindFree™ air conditioning units, R290 Monobloc series of air to water heat pumps and new FN AI Home Controller – as well as its latest smart control solution including SmartThings and SmartThings Pro.

Technical trainer at Samsung Climate Solutions, Jaimeet Alang, invites merchants to attend the training sessions, explaining; “I think the draw for the merchant is twofold. They can better select a heatpump system for the customer, and they can learn about the future benefits of different heatpumps, and maybe push those forwards to an installer who wants to achieve a certain goal or finish a certain project. The training is tailored, so it doesn’t have to be completely technical. We can go through product training, we can go through installation training, we can go through various levels of training for the merchant or anybody in fact, just so they better understand for their needs.”
Face-to-face training sessions at the Chertsey Training Centre are now available to book through Samsung’s own training platform, the Samsung Business Academy.
