Download or read book EPA 608 Study Guide written by Hvac Training 101 and published by . This book was released on 2019-12-06 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HVAC Training 101 is a site visited by over 100,000 enthusiasts monthly, who are interested in becoming HVAC technicians. The site initially began as the passion project of a retired HVAC technician. The site quickly gained popularity, building a strong community of aspiring HVAC technicians. Currently, it is managed by a team of ex-HVAC technicians with decades of experience in the industry. Head over to HVACTraining101.Com to learn more. We began by writing about how to become certified as an HVAC technician. With rules and certifications varying for each state, it was a challenging task. We had a few friends in other states help us out, but for some states, we had to dig really deep to find the information needed. Our audience at the time was very happy with the information we provided. At this point, we started getting many questions about EPA 608 certification. Once you get the education and experience needed to become a technician, prospective employers will ask for certification to handle refrigerants. When we started writing about how to become certified, viewers again requested we write a study guide to help them prepare for the 608 exams. The study guides out there were dense and had much more information than was needed to pass the test. This inspired us to embark on a journey to write the simplest study guide for the EPA 608 exam, which would still cover all the necessary information. We hope we have achieved our intended objective. The journey to becoming an HVAC technician can be long and arduous. We congratulate you on taking this path and wish you the best in cracking the EPA 608 exam.

Download or read book Gas Heating written by Jason Obrzut, CMHE and published by ESCO Press. This book was released on 2019-01-01 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depending on what part of the country that you reside in, gas-burning heating systems can be either an absolute necessity or a rarity. For those that maintain, service and install gas heating systems or those just looking for a more in-depth source of accurate information, this modular training program focuses on furnaces and boilers that burn natural gas or LP. The combustion of gas to generate heat can be dangerous and should be thoroughly understood by HVAC technicians. This program covers many facets of gas heating including: combustion, system components and controls, heating sequences, installation, and troubleshooting. Through advancements in technology, modern heating systems have become far more efficient than their predecessors. Integrated circuit boards and electronic ignition systems have replaced the mechanical controls and manually lit pilots of older systems. Today, technicians may encounter furnaces or boilers that are older than they are, complex high-efficient systems, or anything in between. It is critical that they have a working knowledge of all these systems. This manual provides students and practicing technicians with the information and knowledge necessary to safely work on systems that incorporate gas combustion to provide heat. The information to service, maintain, and install these systems is also presented in an easy-to-understand format. The manual is full of color images and diagrams and includes end-of-chapter worksheets. Gas Heating was written to be a primary text that focuses specifically on gas-burning heating systems which can be used as a stand-alone text or a supplement to your current text book.
