Ideal Heating has announced an expansion of its Expert Academy On-Demand platform, with the launch of new digital training courses.
These new courses include product training for both the Ideal Logic Air and HP290 air source heat pumps. Each course delivers detailed, step-by-step guidance on installation, commissioning and controls.
Designed with a modular format, installers can either complete the full training series or access specific chapters as an on-site reference guide.
Complementing the product training, Expert Academy has also launched a new introductory F-Gas course. Through a series of concise videos, this course covers essential aspects of F-Gas regulations, available training pathways and qualification options, as well as key processes and tools specific to heat pump installation and maintenance.
Ideal Heating says that this expanded training content underlines its commitment to leading the UK’s transition to low carbon heating solutions.
Andrew Johnson, Training Director at Ideal Heating, said: “This latest expansion of our Expert Academy On-Demand platform represents another step in our commitment to supporting heating installers.
“We’re investing significantly in training and development to ensure installers have the skills for both today and for the UK’s net-zero future.
“Our digital platform makes this vital knowledge accessible to everyone, whether they’re new to the industry or experienced engineers looking to expand into renewable technologies.
“By combining the new F-Gas overview course with our existing Introduction to Air Source Heat Pumps programme, we’re creating a comprehensive pathway for installers to confidently enter the heat pump market.”
The three new courses launched by Expert Academy On-Demand are:
– An overview to F-Gas
– Logic Air Product Training
– HP290 Product Training
This latest development builds upon the launch of the Introduction to Air Source Heat Pumps course in September 2024.
The company says that the foundational course, developed in partnership with BPEC, has already helped numerous installers begin their journey into renewable heating technology through 11 comprehensive modules, covering everything from refrigerant operation to electrical considerations.
The new digital courses are part of a broader collection being developed by Expert Academy, with further releases planned throughout 2025.
The digital provision complements in-person courses delivered at Ideal Heating’s training centres, including its facilities in Hessle, East Yorkshire, and Dunstable, near Luton.
