Heating Mastery
Heat Geek Heating Mastery is an online training course focusing on hydronics and controls in the heating industry. Heating Mastery is broken up into two smaller courses, ‘The Awakening’ which will be released first, teaches the fundamentals of heating design and ‘Mastery’ which goes deeper into hydronic understanding and theory which will be released later. The specific aim is to give real-world usable information and practices in a simple to understand way and cut out unnecessary jargon.
Heat Geek’s “The Awakening” is an online training course focusing on hydronics and controls in the heating industry. The Awakening teaches the fundamentals of heating design. The specific aim is to give real-world usable information and practices in a simple to understand way and cut out unnecessary jargon. Enabling you to install more efficient systems, move in to renewables such as heat pumps and also move in to commercial heating.

System hydronic design and controls, with the aim to give you the tools to assess each scenario for yourself to give the most efficient result, rather than following the rules of thumb we have become so used to in the industry.
The Awakening covers all the theory and physics you need to understand in order to complete the Mastery section. It covers how energy is converted, calculated and distributed. It is absolutely essential information to understand before moving on to the mastery section and for heating design in general.
Mastery takes all the information in the Awakening and plays with it to see how we can use it to create the most efficient systems practical.
By far, the most important things to understand to install a heat pump at maximum efficiency is the system hydronics, low temperature system design and low temperature controls. Understanding the fridge circuit is only important if you’re doing service and repair and most heat pumps now are moving to factory sealed units.
And actually we are incredibly lucky here. We can practice these low temperature design and controls on our existing and much more forgiving gas boiler systems. And it just so happens condensing gas boilers also benefit from this by using less gas, prolonging the boiler and system life, and increasing comfort. This is literally the perfect practice ground for engineers to refine implementing low temperature design and controls and also gives 1 more mega huge advantage, it makes properties heat pump ready!
