Uponor recently announced its factory training schedule for 2013, which includes a new course on commercial plumbing applications. The course, which is eligible for continuing education units (CEUs), focuses on codes and standards, pipe sizing, unit piping, riser piping, distribution piping, public and service piping, and design and installation practices.
“We are continuing our momentum in the commercial plumbing sector by offering several options for professionals to learn more about Uponor PEX-a piping systems,” says Wes Sisco, training manager at Uponor. “This includes webinars, field training and now factory training with our newly constructed Commercial Plumbing Applications Lab.”
The new Commercial Plumbing Applications Lab features all of Uponor’s products and systems for suspended piping, risers, in-suite and out-of-the-wall plumbing systems to showcase the benefits of the flexible, durable pipe in real-world applications.
The two-day Commercial Plumbing Applications course is available six times throughout the year beginning in March. Attendees who complete the course are eligible for CEUs to meet continuing education requirements.
The 2013 Uponor Academy factory training schedule also includes Radiant Hydronics and Design with Controls and Advanced Radiant Hydronics with Advanced Design Suite (ADS), which are also eligible for CEUs.
