Can only just cope with NG, let alone anything else 😩
Nope the only way I was looking at doing was for heat pumps but there going the other way now
I hadn’t heard of them until now. Had a quick look, seems focused on hydronics.
Have you done it? Not sure it would be worth my time/money. Perhaps for newer guys.
I have mate yes. The only reason I asked was because there was a similar post of Facebook in the Heat Geek group from a person I though was called Timmy, after double checking I realised it was someone else.
Was the course any good? What level of experience would you rate yourself with before doing the course?
What’s the controls section of the course? Just wiring etc?
I was only ever an oil burner technician, so had very little knowledge, or even experience with the system side of things. The course is good and I learnt a lot from it. It is cleverly thought out and makes you think about things that I certainly never did while servicing burners.
The second part of the course I'm told is going to be a lot harder, although I personally didn't think part 1 was all that hard.
The "controlling your heat source" module was easy in my opinion. It takes you through the various ways of controlling modern day systems with particular concentration on advanced weather compensation and choosing the right curves.
On the whole the course is good and I know a lot more now than I did a year ago but as I mentioned by trade I was just a humble service technician.

Heatgeeks gets slated on another site, stating it’s a bit of a con/rip off and teaching how to suck eggs.
How much is it?
If the people that slate it already know what's taught in the course then fair enough but I highly doubt that.
About £700 for the two parts. There was a discount not long ago but couldn't tell if there still is mate.
Only for England 🤬

Some might, as they’re commercial engineers.
