Course description

Wall-Mount Training: Air Conditioning & Heat Pumps (3.25 hours of video plus 89 question knowledge check – 80% score required for certificate. Total time est. 4.5 / 5 Hrs.)

This course is focused on the NEW 11EER Single and Two-Stage Wall-Mount Air Conditioning and Heat Pump units. However, the material provided in this training applies to All Bard equipment. The control boards reviewed are the same across the entire Bard model platform and any sequence of operation differences are due to model control voltage schemes, applications needs and requirements. Once you learn to troubleshoot a (example) dehumidification control board it is the same for ALL models.

Welcome to Bards’ comprehensive Wall-Mount Air Conditioning & Heat Pump training! This short convenient on-line training course is designed with these goals in mind:

  1. Provide you with the information you need to professionally install, setup and maintain the wall-mount units you routinely work with, helping you achieve your customer service standards.
  2. Provide you with 24/7/365 factory training and enable you to expand your knowledge base at your pace and when you are available. Simply view the short videos, download and view (or print) the provided documents (installation manuals, video guides, start-up documents, etc.) and follow the instructions.

Thank you for choosing Bard!
