hey evryone, thanks again for help with ? that i post. here is my situation. i have been in the plumbing and heating feild for about 14 years. i have good work ethics and believe in workmanship, try to do the best job i can. i have a good business and am learning more everyday. have worked for about 4 companys before starting my own. plumbing is not the issue, but heating i love doing. all my abilities have been somewhat question and answer learning. but my main issue is i rely on distributors to do all my take offs. it limits me to one distributor for the most part because he comes around and makes time for me. i would really like to start to learn more so i may dictate what i want. were do i start on learning more in a simple reading and drawings i guess so i may become more independent. low voltage wiring, basic operations of a boiler, understanding btus etc.... i have a good basic understanding of all but am hungry for more. kinda like heating for dumbies book? thanks again, david fauver

books
Head to the left of this screen to the "Books and More" section. I don't think you can find a better selection of accessible information in one place - anywhere. Hydronics, heating, wiring, piping, boilers, emitters and life lessons are all there. Enjoy.....Dan

more good places for books
If you want more info on fuel oil and burners, go to www.oiltechtalk.com and click on "The Store", and go to www.firedragonent.com and click on "books". Alan Mercurio and George "Firedragon" Lanthier have written some great books on Oil burner service and other aspects of the heating industries.
If you want to learn all there is to know about gas burners and controls, Contact Tim McElwain of the Gas Training Institute at gastc@cox.net . He has written numerous mini books on all aspects of gas burners and controls of all types.
All three of these gentleman do training seminars also, check their websites for times and places.0 -
training
in additton to the library that Dan has assembled in Books and more,Peerless boilers Colors of Heat training. Wirsbo's HCT training, Rehau's training, ITT's Little Red School House, Dan's Seminars, RSES training, RPA training, Beckett, Riello, Honeywell, etc. It is all an investment in time and money, some more, some less. Take advantage of any and all information sources that you can tap into. It's a never ending process, the more you learn the more info you want.0 -
If you do oil buy the
NORA Oiheat Tech's Manual. For $30.00 it's a lot of pages. Go here: www.noraded.org and click on the service truck.0 -
