Ideal Heating brings training to Scotland with new Edinburgh centre
Ideal Heating has opened a dedicated training centre near Edinburgh. The facility in Dalgety Bay provides boiler, heat pump and low-carbon heating training delivered by Ideal’s Expert Academy training arm.
With capacity to train up to 2,000 installers a year, the new training facility, which received a £250,000 investment from Ideal Heating, is easily accessible to installers across central Scotland.
Mark Derbyshire, Ideal Heating’s managing director (domestic), said: “As the industry moves towards low-carbon heating solutions, it was important for Ideal to have a strong presence in Scotland and to take installers on that training journey from boilers to heat pumps.
“Installers visiting our new centre in Dalgety Bay can not only access our high-quality range of training courses but also learn about heat pump system design and become familiar with our products.”
Installers training at the centre will find the latest rigs and simulators, gaining hands-on, practical experience of working with Ideal heat pumps and boilers.
Andrew Johnson, training and design Services director, said: “We continue to invest significantly in our Expert Academy to meet the evolving needs of the heating industry.”
