SUMMARY:Bozeman\, MT - Retrofit Installer Technician: Mechanical Systems
DESCRIPTION:Retrofit Installer Technician: Mechanical Systems\nCourse Description\nThis course covers residential weatherization practices for installers\, with emphasis on assessment\, troubleshooting\, and improvement of mechanical systems such as furnaces\, boilers\, domestic hot water systems\, and ventilation systems. Skills taught include combustion analysis\, assessment of ventilation systems\, and pressure diagnostics at the shell and ductwork. The companion course (RIT Building Shell 101) covers insulation\, air-sealing\, and exterior repairs. Both courses are aligned with the NREL Job Task Analysis for Crew Leader (that now includes RIT). \nThis course immerses students in practice scenarios. Upon completion of the class\, students will have hands-on experience performing the most common tasks needed to assess and improve common mechanical systems. \nCEUs\nThis course includes 22.5 contact hours and can qualify as 22.5 continuing education units (CEUs) toward Home Energy Professional Recertification. \nCourse Objectives\n\nSelect appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for assessment and remediation tasks\nEvaluate and improve the performance of heating and domestic hot water systems\nTroubleshoot and repair simple HVAC issues\nPerform advanced pressure diagnostics of building shells and duct systems\, and use findings to specify typical air-sealing tasks\nEvaluate and improve the performance of mechanical ventilation systems\nDemonstrate basic equipment and tool maintenance\n\nOrganization of Course\nThis is a lecture-lab course. Lecture topics are presented in the classroom setting followed by hands-on practice in the lab. The class is appropriate for students who have had a basic introduction to weatherization training and are ready for advanced “hands-on” training. Student participation in discussions in the classroom and in the lab exercises is very important. This course has a written final exam and student participation is graded as pass/fail. \nGrading Criteria and Passing Score\nThe final exam is a group participation exam taken electronically. Group exams better engage students and allow students the opportunityto discuss questions and answers with each other and instructors. Exams are not graded but rather instructors ensure each student leaveswith an understanding of course content. \nStudents receive course credit through attendance and group participation throughout class. \nAudience\n\nPrivate Contractors\nProgram Managers\nWeatherization Professionals\nBuilding Managers\n\nCourse Fees\n\n$725 for the public\nFree for associates of the Montana Weatherization Workforce\n\nFor additional information contact the Center at classes@weatherization.org or you can call (406) 586-0070. \n  \nREGISTER HERE
