Training courses are offered at 10 locations in Germany either in company-equipped training centers, conference hotels or online. Installation videos can also be used by specific business partners on the manufacturer’s YouTube channel.

Michael Lechte, Product Marketing Manager at Mitsubishi Electric, Living Environment Systems explains: “The Building Energy Act has caused fundamental changes in the market since its publication – particularly in the renovation of energy efficient buildings. Heat pumps play a major role in this because they satisfy the so-called 65% rule without ifs or buts. Our new training program aims to be able to plan and install a full range of heat pumps for energy efficiency repairs safely and effectively.

In addition to the basic events, the topic of hydraulics in heat pump systems is also provided in the technology training section. In addition to air-water heat pumps, training courses on brine water and air-air heat pumps as well as CO₂ hot water heat pumps are also part of the new program.

In the certification training, training course and examination in accordance with the EU Regulation 2015/2067 for the acquisition of professional knowledge in accordance with Section 5 ChemKlimaschutzV for the work of refrigeration, air conditioning and heat pump systems ( refrigeration certificate) is a high priority. .

Qualification to handle flammable refrigerants DIN EN 378 and ISO 22712 is being released for the first time. Training course on the construction and installation of heat pumps VDI 4645Paper 1 is also in the app.

An important part of the new training provision is training in contract law, VOB and warranty law – because the success of the company depends not only on good technology, but also on legal expertise in these basic areas. The courses teach the basics of, for example, being able to read and conclude contracts correctly. The program also includes online training on BEG funding for heat pumps. Experienced dealers are constantly updated on ever-changing financing topics with frequent updates and can therefore provide their clients with the right advice. Events on contract law in end-customer and B2B business are presented for the first time.
