Our free Ground Level Training course is ideal for plumbing and heating engineers wanting to learn to install ground source heat pumps and develop their careers in the renewable heating industry.
If you are traditionally a gas heating installer, transitioning to fitting ground source heat pumps is straightforward and reduces risks, cost, and time. Unlike a gas boiler system, a ground source heat pump has no flue or ventilation requirements, no condense pipe to fit, no more landlord gas safety checks, and simpler and cleaner servicing.
“I booked a free 1-2-1 training session with Kensa’s Training Manager. It was really useful, as I was able to be specific about exactly what I wanted to learn, and the day was tailored to match my skill set. There’s nothing worse than being sat on a training course where half of it isn’t relevant to youMatt Owen, Home Heating & Plumbing
