This two day course for contractors, engineers, plumbers, builders, trades people, architects, students and homeowners will lead to NABCEP Solar Thermal Certification. Today’s solar systems are reliable and efficient but must be customized for each client’s unique hot water system design. Solar thermal system design and installation capability can be a profitable addition to your list of services.

Day 1 provides a detailed understanding of solar hot water systems, their components and design and includes northeast solar resources, client British Thermal Unit (BTU) need determination and solar loop design options.

Day 2 will cover collectors, roof attachments, recharging old systems, heat exchange considerations and solar business issues. Both days will feature an on site demonstration of how to integrate solar storage with existing and new domestic hot water and space heating systems.

Your Instructors: Pete Skinner, PE, President of E2G and Betsy Ferris Wyman of SunDog Solar.
