Maintaining Domestic Heat Pumps

With more and more heat pumps being installed it’s likely that many of us will come into contact with them as part of our other work.  There’s no dark art to them and there’s no reason why routine servicing or repairs can’t be carried out by any maintenance team with a little training.

This one day course is designed for plumbing and electrical trades to enable them to carry out routine service, maintenance and fault-finding on already installed ground source or air source heat pumps.
