Home > City & Guilds 6084 Energy Efficiency for Domestic Heating Level 3 (Part L of the Building Regulations)

This award is for plumbers, gas fitters and anyone involved in the plumbing and heating sector and the installation of condensing boilers.

This qualification and content is connected with the introduction of Part L within the Building Regulations.

The award is made up of a short training programme centred around underpinning knowledge and is assessed by a multiple choice test set on-line via City & Guilds Global On-line Assessment system-GOLA

This course has been designed to enable plumbing and heating engineers to confirm their competence in:

• the design, installation and service and maintenance of unvented hot water storage systems

 

• the understanding of central heating and hot water storage systems' design and installation issues as they relate to energy conservation measures as detailed under Part L1 of the Building Regulations

The Unvented Hot & Cold Water Cylinder Course is aimed at practising plumbers and heating engineers who already have a knowledge of the fundamental requirements of hot and cold water systems and central heating systems.

By undertaking training and assessment in Unvented Hot Water Storage Systems, you will no longer need to contact your local Building Control Officer to have your work approved. You will be recognised as being competent to design, install, service and maintain Unvented Systems and can therefore self-certify your own work.

A self-study manual is provided in advance of the course and it is recommended that this be studied for at least three weeks.

Half a day each is spent on training and assessment. These run concurrently so can be achieved in one day.
