National Skills Academy introduces handy guides for installers

A range of handy technical guides has been launched by the National Skills Academy for Environmental Technologies for renewable and low carbon installers to use as a reference while pricing, sizing and installing a job.

The A6 pocket guides contain key information relating to health and safety requirements, building regulations, installation, best practice and commissioning checks.

Comprehensive guides have been published for:

Solar photovoltaic systems

Solar thermal hot water systems

Air source heat pumps

Ground source heat pumps

Greywater reuse systems

Rainwater harvesting systems

The guides are available to purchase at £14.99 each but are currently being offered to Skills Academy trained installers at the discounted price of £9.99. The pocket guides complement the National Skills Academy's series of new learner manuals which support the delivery of the QCF Level 3 qualifications in related disciplines, but are also available as standalone documents.
