Air Source Heat Pump Course Costs - Complete UK Guide 2025
17th of January 2025
Here at The Energy Training Academy, we’ve witnessed how air source heat pump technology has transformed eco-friendly heating in the UK. As the industry moves away from fossil fuels, we understand that heat pump installation and maintenance knowledge has become essential for heating installers looking to reduce their customers’ carbon footprint and energy bills.
Our Air Source Heat Pump Training Options
We pride ourselves on offering comprehensive training for both experienced plumbing professionals and those new to heat pump systems. Our courses cover the complete spectrum of air source heat technology, from installation fundamentals to advanced fault finding and maintenance of wet central heating systems.
Our Edinburgh Area Training – Dalkeith Facility
Our flagship 5-day course at £595 + VAT delivers in-depth coverage of both practical and theoretical aspects of heat pump technology. We teach essential installation techniques for air source heat units, along with crucial knowledge about integrating these systems with domestic hot water setups. Our course explores the complexities of buffer tanks and solar coils while also covering vital aspects like system temperature optimisation, heat loss calculations, and comprehensive maintenance procedures.
Our Glasgow Area Training – Daikin UK Partnership
Through our partnership with Daikin UK, we’ve expanded our heat pump course in Glasgow and developed a concentrated 4-day program, also priced at £595 + VAT. This focused course provides the essential knowledge required for both domestic and commercial installations, ensuring our graduates are fully prepared for real-world applications of heat pump technology.
Entry Requirements For Our Heat Pump Training
Prerequisites for our heat pump training include Unvented Hot Water, Energy Efficiency, and WRAS Water Byelaws Assessment. If candidates do not meet these requirements, we will include them in the package cost. These prerequisites ensure all our trainees can fully engage with and benefit from our advanced training.
Climate Change and Modern Heating Technology
We’ve seen how the shift in government policy responding to climate change has created unprecedented opportunities for skilled installers. The transition from traditional gas boiler systems to heat pump technology represents a fundamental change in how we heat properties. At The Energy Training Academy, we’re committed to training installers who can help reduce carbon emissions and electricity consumption while decreasing reliance on fossil fuels.
Our MCS-Aligned Training
We’ve carefully aligned our courses with Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS) requirements. Upon completion, you’ll meet the training entry requirements for MCS registration, opening doors to accessible current grant funding opportunities. We cover both domestic and industrial applications, with additional manufacturer courses certification available for those seeking to specialise.
Our Comprehensive Training Approach
We’ve developed our bespoke curriculum to integrate both theoretical and practical elements. In our theory sessions, we cover heat pump working principles, system design fundamentals, and energy efficiency calculations. We explore temperature control optimisation and renewable energy integration in detail. During practical training, we ensure hands-on experience with installation techniques, maintenance procedures, and fault-finding methods.
Investment Value in Our Training
We understand that transitioning to air-source heat pump technology requires an initial investment. That’s why we’ve structured our training to provide maximum value at £595 + VAT. Our graduates gain access to an expanding customer base and can offer higher-value installations in the growing renewable energy sector.
Our Modern Training Facilities
We’ve equipped our facilities with the latest heat pump units integrated with wet central heating systems. Our students work with modern buffer tanks and controls, gaining practical experience with solar coil integration and fault-finding equipment. We ensure this hands-on experience with current technology prepares you for real-world installations.
Our Vision for 2025 and Beyond
We continuously evolve our training as the heating technology landscape changes. Our courses prepare installers for the future of heating, including advanced system integration, smart temperature control, and energy efficiency optimisation. As new heat pump technologies emerge and government initiatives develop, we adapt our training to ensure our graduates stay ahead of industry changes.
