Heating and Cooling Essentials

CD ROM, Textbook and Student Workbook available separately

About this Course

This CD-ROM is fun and sets a new standard for training. The text is both visual and audible (voice over), requiring no computer literacy or instructor. Navigation is easy and simple, with hundreds of animated and interactive graphics to explain principles and system components. This stimulating, self-loading CD teaches the refrigeration cycle, how each component works, and how to identify and repair many problems. The new refrigerants, recycle and recovery, and EPA regulations are covered. The program is professional, easy, fun, and challenging.

What You Will Learn

You'll learn what is necessary to know about AC&R systems from a master serviceman's point of view…the nuts and bolts of proper preventive maintenance and repair. You'll learn proven, current, useful facts…not old wives' tales or hand-me-down procedures.

This program explains the WHY, HOW, and WHEN. A mixture of both practical and theoretical design is given to provide the technician with the proper skills to maintain every level of industrial equipment safely and efficiently, from standard technology to state-of-the-art. This AC&R program is essentially dedicated to the mechanical functions of the equipment and system.
