Due to my unique work history in the Building Inspection Field I have the experience to instruct builders and contractors to enable a successful energuide 80 audit and

I have been in the teaching field for over 12 years to current and past HVAC installation standards. An essential requirement to educate students from experience.

My current Course content includes:

• Residential HVAC Inspection for the 2006 Ontario Building Code
• Basic introduction to all types methods used to provide HVAC to home.
• Manual built for the learner.
• Full after-class support to the learner by Email and phone.
• On-site practical inspections with the class.
• On Site Energy Audits to the NRCan Hot 2000 program
• On-site final inspection.
• In-class projects.
• In-class presentations.

The final in-class examination is unique in its content;

• Both written and practical, involving an in-house inspection followed by a class presentation of the findings. A great practice step for actual home inspections and reporting without the pressure of the home owner being there.

If the course you took does not include:

Practical in class projects

On site visits

In class presentations

Manufacturers site visits

A written and practical final exam and presentation

After school professor contact and support

After class alumni.

Then just what have you paid for?

And:

What prospects do you have after your schooling ends, to stay current and have professional, reachable and caring support when you encounter a problem out there?

Topics featured:

• Common defects
• The building envelope
• Home energy audits

Alumni meetings

Alumni meetings are held once a month in the Toronto area; a great opportunity to network with other other students past and present, practicing inspectors, share information, but generally to relax among like minded people who care about their chosen profession and about helping others and themselves.

New courses

I can tailor my courses to Ontario Building Code HVAC house exam standards. This course would allow building Inspection staff to inspect residential HVAC systems installations for compliance to current codes and standards.

Ask me for an estimate.

CURRENT COURSES.

Presently I am working on or have developed manuals for and presented the following HVAC courses:

• Building Inspectors Generalist program HVAC portion built manual and presented in-house. Instruction to building inspection personnel in the art of inspecting Residential HVAC to OBC current standards.
  
  
• Wood Heating systems built manual and presented in-house.
  
  
• Kitchen Exhaust systems to OBC 2001/ NFPA 96 built manual and presented in-house.
  
  
• Hydronics for the competent inspector.

Ask to see my manuals, the inspection process, section by section fully pictured and explained, an excellent way for your staff to understand the HVAC requirements to better able to inspect to those requirements

Let me quote you on a course tailor made to your local municipal requirements, a full knowledge of heating from the basics up, or section by section modules related to the Ontario Building Code sections that deal only and totally with HVAC disciplines. 9.33- 6.2.4. and 9.32 are the basics you would need.

Further modules can be added as you staff become more competent at their new discipline,:

Hydronic Heating,

Wood Heating installation,

kitchen exhaust systems,

fire ratings and fire damper installation and multiple family dwellings.

Your Building Inspection staff will be able and competent to inspect Installed HVAC system to current OBC standards.

All of my in college courses for Home Inspection are approved to the critically high standard required by O.A.H.I. and are accepted toward the accreditation required by O.A.H.I. for you to become certified to R.H.I.
