The HVAC Replacement Protocol course educates the student on proper removal and installation of new equipment. Today’s HVAC equipment is much more sophisticated than in years past. Older units still operated within tolerable parameters even if they were not fully installed properly, but with the variations of units of today and the use of R410A refrigerant, there is no room for error. An improper install today could cost the customer not only much aggravation, but money as well, and if you cost the customer money then they may not be the company’s customer for long. This course is designed to help prevent service callbacks and to know the equipment will run to designed specifications for years to come.
