Proper preparation is key in achieving NATE certification. This course was designed to translate the knowledge technicians already use in the field into test-taking readiness. By reviewing the basics of electricity, the refrigeration cycle, and troubleshooting, this course is an excellent preparation for the Core, Air Conditioning and/or Heat Pump exams. Many rewards come from successful completion of the NATE exam. Not only will it enhance public perception of the HVAC trade as a whole, NATE certification generally translates into increased marketability, higher pay and improved job security for the individual. Your participation in the NATE certification program says a lot about how you feel about your career in the HVAC industry. It will demonstrate your commitment to professionalism. The NATE exam fee is $220 in addition to the course fee; $110 for the Core and $110 for each Specialty. However, there is a $100 incentive offered in NJ for technicians who certify in Heat Pump, A/C or Gas. NATE Testing Sessions run from 9:00 am - 1:00pm.

This training seminar is designed for the technician who is expanding his/her education into the heat pump field. The technician will receive an overview of the heat pump’s operation fundamentals. Learning this will provide the technician with a greater understanding of the heat pump system and provide a more logical method of diagnostic procedures. Through the use of computer simulation programs, technicians will learn to diagnose common operational and mechanical defects to troubleshoot and diagnose heat pump system problems faster and more accurately.

This seminar is designed for technicians with limited knowledge of oil burners. It is a comprehensive course for learning the basic operation of oil burners as well as how to troubleshoot them. The technician will become more proficient at the art of troubleshooting. This course will walk the technician through a logical, sequential method of repairing oil burners. This approach will help technicians to learn different techniques used in the field and prevent them from becoming “parts swappers”. This course will also touch on combustion testing to keep the oil burner running at its maximum level of efficiency.

This is a comprehensive course for learning the fundamental operation and troubleshooting of boilers, piping and circulator pumps. The class will explore how the thermodynamics of water will affect the flow, how to zone a structure properly, and why pressure is so important to the system. The technicians will learn how to remove air from different systems, and why air removal is vital to the system. This class will teach the technician all of the basics of the most popular hydronic systems that are used in our industry, including low-pressure water systems as well as steam systems. When the technician completes this course, he or she should be able to start installing and troubleshooting most hydronic systems.

This is a comprehensive course that will deal with proper installation procedures of newly constructed ductwork, as well as pre-existing ducts. Also, by utilizing ACCA Manual D, the technician will understand the importance of proper duct design. This approach of selecting the proper size and sealing ductwork can reduce a multitude of air related problems that most houses are faced with today.

This certification is essentially a "license to work" as an HVAC service technician, since it is requires for all technicians who want to purchase, transport or handle refrigerants. The preparation session is a comprehensive yet concise review and will cover all topics of knowledge necessary to pass the Universal Exam. All four parts of the exam will be offered: CORE, TYPE I, TYPE II and TYPE III.The CORE section must be taken by anyone that is seeking Section 608 certification. Technicians can choose to test in any or all phases of this exam. Applicants should be prepared to present photo ID. Additional testing fee of $40 applies.

All newly installed high-efficiency equipment should be sized within fifteen percent of the calculated loads as estimated in accordance with the Air Conditioning Contractors of America (ACCA) Manual J (or an equivalent estimation procedure). This course will help you do just that.

This is a valuable course for learning basic gas furnace operation as well as improving troubleshooting skills. Technicians will learn to diagnose the two most common gas furnaces they are likely to encounter in the field – high-efficiency condensing furnaces and standing pilot-type furnaces. The class will explore the sequence of operation for these different types of furnaces in order to create a faster and more logical method for diagnostic procedures. This approach not only helps technicians on future service calls, but also allows them to share new diagnostic methods with other employees. This course will teach the technician not to be a “parts swapper” by exploring how to diagnose electrical parts using a voltmeter, an ohmmeter and an ammeter.
