Levels 1-3 Multiple Fan Testing of Large Buildings [Metric]
Retrotec’s new Large Building Training is our most comprehensive and involved online course package to-date. Previous manufacture training courses have primarily focused on equipment operation. Contrastly, this course serves to teach not only how to test residential, commercial and high rise, but also explain basic Building Science. Testers will study why & how buildings leak, the impact of leakage, and more.
The training pathway consists of milestones that require completion in order for a tester to receive certification.
Courses do not expire, meaning trainers can review and refresh their knowledge & skills indefinitely.
