Heat Pumps: The Ultimate Installation Guide

| Online course available on-demand |

Ensure the longevity and efficiency of your systems, bridging the gap between design and commissioning.

Overview

Following our first session on system design, this session is dedicated to one of the most critical aspects of HVAC – the installation. A proper installation ensures the longevity and efficiency of the system, bridging the gap between design and commissioning.

This training is a result from collaboration with a group of industry partners, ensuring a relevant and practical guide to HVAC installation challenges. Bruce Manclark will host our lead speaker, Matt Ryan of Petra Heating & Cooling, who is an HVAC contractor with decades of experience. He brings practical insights and solutions to common and complex installation challenges that are relevant to a variety of building industry audiences.

Matt will cover key areas such as:

Optimal setups for both outdoor and indoor units.
Piping details, from choosing the right bend to ensuring solid connections.
Essential start-up procedures to ensure efficient and durable system operation.

Benefit from industry-vetted knowledge and Matt’s many years of experience in order to enhance your HVAC installation process.

This session is a part of a three-part series on how to effectively design, install and commission air source heat pumps (ASHPs) in residential homes.

This series has been developed by and for building industry professionals (builders, designers, HVAC contractors, raters, and beyond) to better understand ASHP applications and to provide tangible design principles and construction practices that can be integrated into your building process.

Attend this 'Heat Pump Mastery' webinar series to gain field-tested recommendations from building professionals on the following critical topics:

It's imperative to highlight that cold climate ASHPs are no longer emerging equipment — they're mature technologies, ready and reliable for any climate. Their stellar reputation eliminates prior misconceptions and stands as a testament to their adaptability.

Moreover, the efficiency and effectiveness of ASHPs aligns well with advancing energy codes across the NW region and makes them ideal candidates for certifications such as ENERGY STAR and a viable pathway towards unlocking substantial 45L Tax Credits and incentives.

Join us to gain info and insights on how to select appropriate heat pump equipment according to your unique project objectives.

Note: We encourage you to also attend the ‘45L Tax Credit: What You Need to Know’ training offered as an on-demand course as a helpful precursor to this series.
