BPEC Domestic Ventilation Systems Training and Assessment Course
BPEC Domestic Ventilation Systems Qualification
Xpelair by Dimplex will be holding Domestic Ventilation Training and Assessment courses aimed at anyone with an interest in installing ventilation systems.
Approved Document L has introduced Regulation 11F in England and 11W in Wales, which places clear requirements on competence when carrying out building work or design work.
There is now clear guidance that greater care should be taken when installing a mechanical ventilation system, particularly centralised systems, and to ensure that both the following are met:
- The person carrying out the work is suitably competent (for example, they are a registered competent person).
- The work meets the requirements of the Building Regulations.
For ventilation, Approved Document F also makes clear that work should be carried out by someone suitably competent, either through self-certification or by a registered competent person or certification by a Building Control Body. Registered Competent Person schemes include BPEC’s Domestic Ventilation Systems course.
This is a training and assessment course which is ideal for experienced electricians, plumbers, ventilation installers and heating engineers looking to improve their knowledge and understanding of domestic ventilation systems.
BPEC Approved Training
This 2 day course is designed to meet the requirements of the manufacturers for the installation, inspection, testing, commissioning and provision of information for fixed Domestic Ventilation Systems for both new and existing buildings currently available in the UK.
Whilst this course has been designed specifically to address Approved Document F, Volume 1. for England and Approved Document F, Volume 1. for Wales, the guidance given is equally applicable to Scotland. It is recognised as a demonstration of competence for Competent Person Schemes (CPS).
Assessments normally consist of a combination of practical and theory examinations, whilst certificates are normally valid for 5 years.
Upcoming Training Dates
The course cost is £300 + VAT per candidate which includes BPEC certification upon successfully passing the training and assessment course.
