Dimplex trebling support for UK's low carbon heating market with an air source heat pump accredited installer programme.
Dimplex is trebling its support for the UK's low carbon heating market with an air source heat pump accredited installer programme, a new renewables training suite at its Southampton headquarters and the appointment of a business development manager for heat pumps in Scotland.
Access to the UK's widest range of air source heat pumps is now easier than ever, thanks to Dimplex's accredited installer programme.
Developed in response to soaring demand for low carbon heating solutions, the training opens up a new and profitable stream of business to contractors, as well as ensuring easy access for specifiers to an expanding accredited installer network.
The Dimplex course is open to experienced heating, plumbing, electrical and HVAC installers and is supported with a dedicated training facility at Dimplex's Southampton headquarters.
With a variety of air source heat pumps available in the training suite, the course provides installers with the practical and theoretical know-how necessary for top quality installations.
Training is also available at Chesterfield and Inverness.
Dimplex training manager Steve MacLean explains, "There is huge demand for quality renewable solutions in heating, and the accreditation course and new training facility means that installers now have access to market-leading expertise and equipment in one place".
A short exam at the end of the comprehensive two-day training course must be completed successfully before accreditation, to ensure the highest levels of competence, after which installers have the right to market themselves as a Dimplex Accredited Installer.
In addition, the scheme gives installers exclusive access to post-installation commissioning services, extended warranties, full Dimplex technical support services and a free website listing and marketing support pack, plus cashback on the first installation which fully refunds the GBP395 application fee.
One day courses are also available to give specifiers and other building professionals an overview of heat pump technology and system design.
For further information on the courses and a list of dates, visit the website or call 01489 773120 or email training@dimplex.co.uk.
In addition to its investment in training, the Dimplex heat pump team has appointed Laurence Allison as business development manager for Scotland.
Laurence has worked for Dimplex for 6 years and brings particular expertise in Scottish regional issues to the team.
