TESTING & CERTIFICATIONOur optional ATMT® testing and certification sets the standard for measuring maintenance worker knowledge. Employers can use it to assess training needs prior to training or to measure training outcomes, or as documentation for a qualified electrical worker program or other internal safety or training program. Individuals use our testing and certification to demonstrate knowledge to a current or potential employer.

Our exams can be done online or on paper. The paper exam can be taken in a proctored or non-proctored setting. If you would like to take the paper test in a proctored setting, a manager in your company must apply to become a proctor with TPC Trainco.

Please contact our Testing Adminstrator at303-867-5035 or at [email protected] for a study guide or exam orders, proctor applications,or specific certification questions.

SEMINAR OVERVIEWProviding comfort to the people in your building is what this seminar is all about. And whether you are blowing heated or cooled air, keeping the temperature consistently comfortable for them is dependent upon you properly managing your HVAC electrical controls and air distribution systems. So we’ve designed this course to help you do just that. During this seminar students will learn how to “control” their controls, and how to use fundamental air distribution principles for achieving consistent HVAC comfort and efficiency in buildings, plants and facilities.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?This course is designed for anyone working on HVAC controls and air distribution systems, or who are responsible for keeping comfortable working or living conditions in their buildings. Attendees come from a wide variety of industries, skill-levels, company sizes and educational backgrounds. This course is also great for cross-training technicians who work in multi-craft environments! So if you’re not sure if you will fit in or will benefit from these classes, don’t worry – you will – as long as your work involves HVAC!

“...learned much more than expected.”Eddie B - Maintenance Supervisor

OUR EXPERT INSTRUCTORSOur team of 60 field-experienced instructors is the backbone of training seminar schedule, from HVAC certification and maintenance to PLC courses. Together they’ve logged more than 200,000 hours in the classroom — by far the deepest experience in the industry.

Our instructors must meet three core requirements:

• Relevant formal education in the seminar topic area

• Documented hands-on work experience• Specific experience as a maintenance

training instructor

Many of our instructors’ credentials extend even further, including experience as authors, speakers, and industry organization board members within their fields of expertise. And they stay current on technology and industry trends through their own ongoing education, field visits, and peer review meetings.

TRAINING PHILOSOPHYOur training is designed with practical, real-world facility and industrial applications in mind. It is unbiased, unaffiliated and non-commercial so you are assured of a real education and not a product sales pitch. It focuses less on theory and more on the actual steps students need to properly maintain equipment or fix specific problems at their own plant or facility.

Our instructors will simplify the subject matter for the novice or go in-depth to answer an engineer’s toughest question. We have over thousands of hours of experience of live classroom training using these methods, and it is why our students keep coming back.

TRAINING OUTCOMES• Identify a problem as being Electrical,

Mechanical or an Air Distribution issue• Understand the basics of electricity as it

applies to HVAC systems• Read HVAC ladder and wiring diagrams• Troubleshoot line and low voltage problems• Properly test operating and safety controls• Troubleshoot air conditioning & heat pump

systems• Specify the correct air handling equipment

required for the job• Properly size HVAC air ducts• Determine how many CFM are needed for

your system• Determine air mixture conditions at the

cooling coil• Understand the benefits and disadvantages

of “short cycling”• Control noise problems• Avoid air conditioning drafts• Test air handling equipment

CONTINUING EDUCATION UNITSUpon completion of this seminar, the student will receive a three-star certification of completion with 8 classroom hours (.8 TPC Trainco CEUs) per day attended. Most employers and many government agencies accept TPC Trainco CEUs to fulfill their continuing education requirements.

DAY TWO - DISCUSSION TOPICS

Many common problems found in HVAC systems are relatively easy to correct, but are often overlooked. These problems are not electrically related at all even though many times we can get tricked into thinking they are. Yet a non-electrical problem can be as frustrating to find and fix as an electrical one, and may be even more discomforting to the people who have to live with it. So the second day of this seminar concentrates on the most often overlooked and ignored problems in HVAC systems – the “V” in “HVAC” – or ventilation, air distribution and air balancing!

We have all heard the complaints of “too hot”, “too cold”, “not enough air” or “I feel a draft”. So in this second day of the seminar students will learn how to solve the problems that cause people to say these things. Students will learn how to handle a problem like when one area is cooling, but another is not; why 400 cfm per ton is important and why it is used; how refrigerant piping affects air conditioning performance; how to determine proper blower and duct sizes for your system; what to do when you have an undersized duct; what causes noise in a system and the tricks you can use to control it; how to troubleshoot and perform tests on air handling equipment, exhaust fans and air make-up equipment; how to properly balance an air system for ideal comfort – and so much more. The primary goal of this day is to help you minimize the complaints heard from the people working or living in your building. Once completed, students leaving this class will have all that they need to handle any complaint that may come their way.

Determining and Improving Air Flow• 400 cfm per ton• How many square feet per ton?• Air mixture at the cooling coil• Exhaust Air• Positive pressure• Negative pressure

Make-Up Air• Positive pressure• Negative pressure• Conditioning the make up air

Troubleshooting the Air Distribution System• Temperature difference across the coil• Balance in the system• Short cycling• Duct sizing• Noise• How to use a Ductulator

DAY ONE - DISCUSSION TOPICS

HVAC system problems can be divided into three major categories - Air Distribution, Electrical or Mechanical. The part that causes most service headaches is the electrical portion, and most of that can be traced back to control problems. So day 1 of this seminar concentrates on overcoming the most common service problems encountered in HVAC systems by teaching students to understand, troubleshoot and test HVAC Electrical Controls.

During this seminar, students will learn the basics of electricity including Ohm’s law and how simple series and parallel circuits are used in HVAC systems. They will learn how to troubleshoot both line voltage and low voltage in their systems. They will learn how to identify an electrical problem and determine a solution for it by testing both operating controls and safety controls. Specific situations unique to air conditioning and heat pumps will be discussed as well. Students leaving after the first day of this seminar will be confident in their HVAC electrical control knowledge and armed to go back to their workplace to immediately apply what they have learned!

Basic Electricity• Basic Electricity & Ohm’s Law• Meters & Tools for Taking Electrical

Measurements• Electrical Circuits• Series and Parallel

Control Circuits• Schematics• Ladder Diagrams• Developing Wiring Diagrams

Controls• Overloads• Relays• Contactors• Control Transformer• Starting Relay• Defrost Timer• Thermostat• High Pressure Control• Low Pressure Control• Oil Pressure Control

Troubleshooting• General Troubleshooting Techniques• Common Problem Areas• Commercial Air Conditioning• Heat Pump Control• Pump Down Cycle
