HVAC Certification

Air conditioners running below their rated performance cause wasted energy, decreases comfort and shortens the life of air conditioning equipment. These problems can be addressed when units are properly installed and maintained.

That is why a high-efficiency cooling rebate was developed. To qualify for the rebate, the central air conditioning unit or air source heat pump must be installed by a qualified HVAC contractor that has successfully completed the HVAC/R Education qualifications and testing.

Qualified installations focus on 4 key areas:

Equipment sizing
Refrigerant charge
Air flow
Duct sealing (exposed ducts only)

If contractors would like to purchase online training materials to prepare for the assessment or many other educational items for the industry, see link below.
