The training consists of both classroom and lab. Theory is introduced in the classroom and then reinforced in our state-of-the-art lab. In the lab students will identify components and review load calculation sheets and procedures that will help save on refrigeration costs. A demonstration of starting and operating a live, two-stage ammonia refrigeration system is also included in the course. This training is for companies with personnel who assist with system oversight but who do not operate system components.

The class is taught 8am to 5pm.
The cost is $495 per student.
