This module is an initial introductory overview of Environmental Technologies for domestic homes. It aims to give learners a better understanding of the different technologies on the market, and would be a mandatory unit firstly attended. Also, a useful opportunity to direct delegates towards other modules which would be most of interest.

This module outlines the need for all heating systems to be designed to operate at a low temperature from the outset in order to maximise efficiency out of the system. The objective for this module is to convey the concept of low temperature heating systems. And will provide knowledge and an understanding for the need and the requirements for installing low temperature heating and hot water systems.

The Water Regulations module will give an overview of the current Water Regulations. Topics covered within this module will be the interpretation and definitions of the Water Regulations, Materials and substances, Requirements, design and installation, Backflow and contamination prevention, Hot and cold-water services, Flushing devices as well as Sanitary appliances.

This module is for anyone who works at height in any place, including a place at or below ground level, should understand how to perform these activities safely with in in their work. Contents includes an Introduction and an insight to legislation, work at height risk assessing, avoiding, preventing, minimising risks and forms of working at height equipment.

This module is an ideal introduction for obtaining a basic understanding of health and safety duties and responsibilities and becoming aware of hazards and risks. As well as an understanding for those who may undertake manual handling operations, including the transporting of a load of items by lifting, lowering, pushing, pulling, carrying, manoeuvring.

This module will be an introduction to solar hot water systems which are commonly installed in the UK. And will provide an oversight in understanding fully filled sealed systems, drain back systems, flat plate collector systems, evacuated tube collector systems and direct flow evacuated tube collector systems.

This module will be an introduction to solar photovoltaic systems which are being installed in the UK. And will provide an oversight in understanding of the technology being used, how sunlight in converted into electrical energy, how it is stored with in a battery, the benefits and considerations to be made.

This module will be an introduction to what retrofitting insulation is, what differing forms of insulation systems are available, reasons for it, why it is needed and the benefits. Along with the role it will play in sustainability and reaching net zero targets.

This module will be an introduction to understanding about what this form of heat pump is, principles of a vapour compression system and the components involved. The characteristics of each type of heat pump unit and system arrangement. Will cover the fundamental principles of heat pump efficiency and design selection that are common for heat pumps. Along with the principles of designing a ground Collector for a Ground Source Heat Pump.

This module will be an introduction to understanding what this form of heat pump is, the principle of the vapor compression system and components involved. The differing operational characteristics of each type of heat pump unit and system arrangement. Will cover the fundamental principles of heat pump efficiency and design selection that are common for heat pumps. Along with the principles of domestic hot water cylinder selection and system design that are common.
