Worcester Greenfloor heatingGlobal responsibility for nature and the environment

As part of the Bosch group, Worcester is committed to

environmental protection. With product development being

prioritised in the interests of people’s safety, the economical

use of resources and environmental sustainability.

In just a few short years, Britain’s domestic heating and

hot water industry has changed dramatically.

With approximately 25% of the UK’s carbon dioxide

emissions being produced by home energy consumption,

75% of which is for the provision of heating and hot water,

such change is not only inevitable but crucial.

Words and expressions such as “renewable energy”,

“sustainable technology” and “carbon footprint” have

become part of everyday conversation and have been

fuelled by extreme weather and stark television images

of melting polar ice caps.

Worcester, Bosch Group, whilst continuing to satisfy the

daily demands for heating and hot water comfort, has taken

a lead in developing solutions which reduce the impact on

the environment by reducing CO2 emissions – not only for

today but well into the future.

As part of this philosophy we are proud to introduce

high efficiency Greenfloor heating systems. Part of the

Total System Solution offering from Worcester, Greenfloor

heating systems deliver efficient heating in their own right

as well as facilitating the use of low carbon technologies

such as air source and ground source heat pumps and

condensing boilers.

Greenfloor heating is suitable for both new build and

refurbishment applications, offering a number of major

benefits over traditional radiator systems. By operating at

lower temperatures, underfloor heating helps to increase

the efficiency of the boiler or heat pump and reduces

overall running costs. Unlike radiator systems underfloor

distributes heat more evenly, increasing user comfort and

helping to reduce dust and the risk of house mites.

Greenfloor provides a complete underfloor heating

package that’s robust and reliable. The range includes

PE-Xc pipe with a choice of different pipe fixing methods

and manifolds for between 2 and 16 zones. These

are complemented by controls and a full range of

other accessories.

The pipe fixing methods are designed to make installation

quick and easy and can be used with traditional sand and

cement screed, wet screed or as a dry construction system

to suit the requirements of each property.

Greenfloor heating

Worcester’s Greenfloor heating system uses a water-filled

pipe system that turns the floor into a large surface area

radiator. The pipe system gently warms the space above it

through a combination of radiant energy and heat conduction.

In a modern, well-insulated space where heat loss factors

have been taken into consideration, underfloor heating can

act as the primary heating source and, in most cases, no

other space heating methods will be required.

Underfloor heating operates with lower water temperatures

than traditional radiator systems. This makes it the perfect

complement for Worcester’s ground source and air to water

heat pumps. As well as space heating, Worcester heat

pumps are able to provide a constant supply of hot water

throughout the year.

The low return water temperature of underfloor heating

also makes it suitable for use with Worcester condensing

boilers, ensuring they remain at their optimum efficiency,

with significant energy savings.

As there are no radiators to take up space, Worcester

Greenfloor systems also provide maximum flexibility within

the property. They can also be used with a wide range of

floor coverings, including parquet, carpeting, marble or tiles.

Underfloor heating is a system where every component is

important to overall performance. Worcester Greenfloor

systems provide a comprehensive selection of high quality

system components, while offering considerable flexibility

to meet all of a project’s needs.

Greenfloor pump and mixing stations

Greenfloor offers a number of pump and mixing stations to

satisfy the needs of each individual installation.

FRS pump and mixing station

The FRS standard pump and mixing station features a fixed

value thermostatic injection valve, which is commissioned

on site by the installer to the specification provided by the

Worcester Design Service. The flow water temperature will

be maintained constantly at a safe and efficient level. The

FRS also includes a high limit thermostat to protect the

heated floor area from excessive temperatures using a

circulating pump and temperature gauge. Each installation

of an FRS will also require an FRS connection set, available

from Worcester, to allow an easy and speedy connection to

the Greenfloor stainless steel manifold.

Alternatively, a choice of advanced controls featuring

weather compensation is available.

VRS pump and mixing stations

The VRS weather compensated pump and mixing stations

are available to suit up to both a 7kW and 10kW installation

and fit directly to the Greenfloor stainless steel manifold.

The VRS station features a modulating circulating pump,

electronic mixing valve and an intelligent controller. This

feature, through input gathered by the supplied flow

temperature and outdoor sensors, adjusts the output

temperature based upon external conditions.

KMS pump and mixing stations

The KMS remote pump and mixing stations feature the

same proven components and method of operation as

the VRS pump and mixing stations. The KMS provides

the flexibility of mounting the station away from the

Greenfloor manifold and is available to suit up to both

15kW and 25kW installations.

All Greenfloor pump and mixing stations are provided

with comprehensive installation, commissioning and

user instructions. Further support on planning

and specifying the system can be provided by the

specialist Worcester Design Services team.

Single room extensions

The RMS pump and mixing station is designed to offer a

simple underfloor heating control solution for single rooms.

The RMS connects into the existing flow and return circuit

of the central heating system and features a circulation

pump and a temperature limiting valve on the return side.

It is possible for the circulation pump to be electrically

supplied via a proprietary room thermostat to provide an

interlock as well as to aid energy efficiency. Please note

that the RMS single room pump and mixing station relies

upon the existing central heating system’s controls to be

‘calling for heat’ to achieve warming of the floor. To achieve

a greater level of independent control, an FRS standard

pump and mixing station should be selected.

Greenfloor offers a range of pipe fixing methods

to suit every project.

Greenfloor pipe

positioning panels

Greenfloor pipe positioning

panels are ideal for use in

new and existing buildings

and can be used with cement

or pumped liquid screed.

The channels on the panels

ensure that optimum spacing of the pipe coils

are achieved. Pipe is fixed using a press-stud action

which enables fixing without clamps. The panels

are available with and without insulation.

Greenfloor staple panels

Greenfloor staple panels are

easy to assemble and very

cost-efficient. They are

supplied as a rolled panel and

manufactured from foamed

polystyrene with a fully

bonded, tear-proof and

waterproof woven fabric

coating. The imprinted installation grid allows for system-

compatible pipe spacing, as well as quick and easy pipe fixing

when using our Greenfloor clip rails or staples.

Greenfloor dry

construction system

The Greenfloor dry construction

system provides the ideal

solution for dry construction

in buildings of all ages. They

are particularly popular with

timbered floors where a

water-based screed is undesirable. The system is based

on working with dry construction panels while using steel

spreader plates into which the pipe is pressed. Easy to work

with, the system enables serpentine or spiral installations and can

accommodate even the most complex of room geometries.

Greenfloor timber

suspended floor system

Greenfloor clip rail and

staples provide a simple cost

effective solution. It is ideal

for when fixing pipe to floor-

grade insulation between the

joists of a timber suspended

floor. Tongue & groove or

chipboard flooring can then be laid directly across

the joists.

Greenfloor controls are optimised for use with

Greenfloor heating systems. The range of products

includes wiring centres and components for individual

room temperature control.

Room thermostats

Single room controls allow the temperature in each room to

be set individually. The temperature is controlled by the

thermostat in relation to variable factors such as solar heat

gains, electrical devices and people. They are available as

230V wired controls or as wireless (RF) versions. Single

room thermostats are available as wall mounted models.

Wired programmable room thermostats are available as

flush mounted models.

Wiring centres

Greenfloor wiring centres provide a quick, simple and safe

means of wiring together room thermostats and actuators.

The wired unit can be used with up to six 230V room

thermostats, or programmable room thermostats. It can

also operate up to 14 actuators. There is the facility to

connect a time control which enables a night set-back

mode and an interlock to

stop the manifold circulating

pump from operating. It also

turns off the heat source

(when all valves are closed).

The wireless unit will receive signals from up to eight

wireless thermostats and can be wired to a maximum of

16 actuators. The unit is supplied complete with a 7 day

programmer that allows each zone to be programmed

independently and works harmoniously with Worcester’s

wireless (RF) room thermostat. To stop the manifold

circulating pump running and turning off the heat source,

the unit incorporates an interlock.

Actuators

The 230V actuators are

supplied by the Greenfloor

wiring centres and control

the water flow through each

zone, according to the room

thermostat’s demand signal.

They consume as little energy

as just 2 Watts.

Pipe fixing methods

Before a suitable Greenfloor pipe fixing method

can be selected, consideration must be given to

the following factors:

• The desired finished floor level and the available

depth for installation

• The heat output required from the floor to accommodate

the heat loss of the room and building

• The type of floor that Greenfloor will be installed within

• The desired floor finish.

Wet screed floors

Screed

Greenfloor pipe positioning panels and Greenfloor staple

panels are designed for use with either a standard sand

and cement screed or a pumped liquid screed. Typically

a 75mm screed depth is used.

Greenfloor pipe positioning panels

Greenfloor pipe positioning panels offer flexibility in

achieving a balance of the finished floor level against

the available installation depth. The panels are available

with either 30mm or 11mm of polystyrene insulation.

Alternatively an option with no insulation provides the

ease and convenience of the panel fixing method and

relies on the floor grade insulation installed on site.

Greenfloor pipe positioning

panels offer a number of

advantages over other pipe

fixing methods, while allowing

an experienced installer a one

man installation. Working

with a 200m coil, Greenfloor

PE-Xc system pipe can simply

be walked into the pre-formed castellated sections of the

panel. Greenfloor pipe positioning panel installations are

also much easier to adjust should last minute changes be

required to the layout of the installation. There are no clips

to release, no damage to the panels and the pipe can easily

be relaid to the revised requirements. Greenfloor pipe

positioning panels deliver a highly professional finish to the

installation procedure, prior to pressure testing and the

screed being laid.

Greenfloor staple panels

Greenfloor staple panels are made of polystyrene insulation

and are coated with a fully bonded, tear and waterproof

woven fabric. This has a number of advantages, particularly

in avoiding the situation with floor grade insulation where

the staples can pull out.

The Greenfloor staple panel also provides an installation grid

at 50mm intervals for easy spacing of the Greenfloor PE-Xc

system pipe. This is applied directly to the staple panel

using staples and a stapler available from Worcester.

Greenfloor staple panels are available in a choice of

two installation thicknesses, 30mm and 35mm. It is

recommended to fix the Greenfloor PE-Xc system pipe

with Greenfloor staples every 300mm. More staples

may be necessary on bends.

The pipe spacing will be specified as part of the package

of information supplied by the Worcester Design Service.

Once the Greenfloor PE-Xc system pipe is installed, pressure

testing must be carried out prior to the screed being laid.

Greenfloor staples & Greenfloor clip rail

Both of these products offer an alternative method of

installing Greenfloor. A particularly low installation cost can

be achieved by simply fixing the Greenfloor PE-Xc system

pipe to the floor grade insulation installed on site.

Greenfloor staples, installed using the Greenfloor stapler or

Greenfloor clip rail, or a combination of the two, provides a

robust fixing method prior to the screed being laid.

We recommend fixing the Greenfloor PE-Xc system pipe

with Greenfloor staples every 300mm, while more staples

may be necessary on bends.

Greenfloor clip rails should be fixed to the floor grade insulation

using the self adhesive backing. This should be done prior

to Greenfloor rail fixing pins being pushed into the

insulation through the clip rail. This will provide a robust

and secure fixing.

Greenfloor clip rails should be fixed at no more than

1,000mm spacing between clip rails and no more than

500mm spacing from wall edges. They should be installed

at 90° to the coldest external wall.

After applying the Greenfloor PE-Xc system pipe, pressure

tests must be completed prior to the screed being laid.

Installation requirements

Dry screed floors

Greenfloor dry construction

panels offer an alternative to

the traditional approach of

installing Greenfloor PE-Xc

system pipe within 75mm

of wet screed. The dry

construction panel system

is designed to be installed

directly over an existing floor surface; this may be designed

as part of a new construction or a retrofit at a later date.

Greenfloor dry construction panels can also offer a solution

where an existing floor is not able to withstand the weight

or loading of a traditional wet screed, for example on

timber suspended floors.

The dry construction panels are laid over the existing floor

surface and feature an interlock system to ensure secure

installation of each panel to the next. Once the installation

of the dry construction panels is complete, Greenfloor heat

conducting plates are installed.

The Greenfloor heat conducting plates allow the heat from

the PE-Xc system pipe to radiate over a wider area to

provide an even heat output. They are available in both

straight and curved sections.

The curved sections allow for a 180° bend at the edge

of the installation area prior to installing the next

straight section.

On completion of the installation of the Greenfloor

dry construction panels and heat conducting plates,

the Greenfloor PE-Xc 14mm system pipe can be installed.

Once the system pipe is installed, the Greenfloor dry

screed system foil is placed over the whole area.

This provides an intermediate layer to minimise the

risk of movement or expansion noise against the

finished floor surface.

For pressure testing directions see page 17.

Timber suspended floors

Greenfloor offers a simple and effective solution for timber

suspended floors which is particularly suitable for retrofit

installations. Timber battens are fixed to run the length of

the joists to provide a platform upon which the floor grade

insulation can be installed. Greenfloor staples or clip rails

can then be used to secure the Greenfloor PE-Xc pipe.

Installation centres can be as close as 100mm to ensure

maximum heat output is available for a comfortable,

efficient and effective heating system.

This style of installation is only recommended for use in

timber suspended floors at 1st floor level and above.

Ground floor installations should, wherever practical,

employ a wet screed installation. This allows for maximum

efficiency and avoids the risk of the ventilated area below

drawing heat away from the floor surface. In all cases, the

installer must plan for maximising thermal insulation and

minimising drafts.

Greenfloor timber suspended floor installations must

successfully pass the same test criteria as a

Greenfloor dry screed floor installation.

For pressure testing directions see page 17.

Insulation to Building Regulations requirements

In all instances, all floors must be insulated to the latest

Building Regulations requirements. The thermal resistance

of the pipe positioning, staple or dry construction panels

may be calculated as part of the building’s insulation

programme or seen as an extra over the minimum

compliance standard already planned.

Pressure testing

Once the PE-Xc system pipe is installed and connected

to the Greenfloor stainless steel manifold, the installation

must be pressure tested using the following procedure.

• Ensure the Greenfloor installation is isolated from the

heat source using the valves between the pump and

mixing station and the stainless steel manifold.

• Flush and fill each loop individually using a mains

cold water supply by ensuring only the manual

isolating valve and flow meter, for the current

loop, are open when being flushed.

• Once all loops are flushed of air and filled, connect

a suitable pressurisation pump to one of the fill and

drain points on the manifold.

• Open each of the loops fully using the manual isolating

valves and flow meters.

• Increase the pressure using the pump to 6 bar. An initial

decrease can be expected as the Greenfloor PE-Xc system

pipe expands. Following this decrease the pressure

should be adjusted back to 6 bar. No other decrease

should be seen. This test pressure must be successfully

witnessed for at least 1 hour.

• After successful completion of the pressure test at 6 bar,

the wet screed or floor finish can be laid. The pressure

test should be maintained throughout the laying of the

screed or floor finish. This protects the system pipe from

deformation and allows any damage incurred to be

immediately noticed.

Laying wet screed

• The screed should be laid

as soon as possible after

successful pressure testing

of the Greenfloor installation.

• This should be supplied and

installed in accordance with

British Standards and the

flooring manufacturer’s

instructions.

• As wet screed cures, it releases heat. As a result a slight

increase in pressure may be observed.

• Once laid, all screeds require a period of time to cure.

Curing periods are typically 21 days, but British Standards

and the manufacturer’s instructions must be followed.

For the first 3-4 days the screed must not be walked on.

Any pressure could introduce a weak spot to the screed

and the potential for cracking in the future.

• After the initial period has passed the screed can be

walked on.

• The screed must then be covered with both a polythene

barrier to maintain moisture levels and a protective

plywood layer to prevent damage. At all times the screed

supplier’s instructions must be followed.

• At the end of the curing period, the system pressure

should be adjusted to the normal working pressure of

1.5 bar by draining off via the fill and drain point.

• The isolating valves between the pump and mixing station and

the stainless steel manifold can then be opened to connect

the heat source circuit with the Greenfloor installation.

• The heat source can then be turned on to aid the

drying process.

• The temperature in the Greenfloor installation should be

limited to 25°C for 3 days, then increased for a further

4 days to approximately 40°C.

Greenfloor PE-Xc system pipe

Greenfloor PE-Xc system

pipe is available in two

different diameters and

two different lengths.

There is a choice of 14mm

dia. and 16mm dia. pipe,

each with a 2mm side wall.

The selection of the

diameter depends on each particular installation and will be

specified as part of the package of information provided

by the Worcester Design Service. This is dependent upon

factors such as total pipe length and pressure loss

throughout the installation.

Domestic installers will find the 200m long coils the most

practical and easiest to work with. If installing regularly, for

example on construction sites, it may be more practical to

specify the larger coils which are available – 14mm dia. as a

750m coil or 16mm dia. as a 650m coil. These much larger

coils will reduce the amount of off-cuts. The coil is best

handled when using a pipe reel and stand which are available

from Worcester, and enables the pipe to be supported and

easily uncoiled.

Greenfloor PE-Xc system pipe is guaranteed for a period

of 25 years.

Greenfloor stainless steel

manifolds

Greenfloor stainless steel

manifolds are available

in a range of sizes to

accommodate applications

from 2 to 16 zones.

It is also possible to

connect two manifolds

together. For example

if an extension to the

Greenfloor installation

is required, or to accommodate unforeseen circumstances

at installation stage.

The number of ports required on the manifold depend

on a number of factors including:

• The number of rooms in the property

• The size of the rooms

• The heat loss of the room and building

• The heat output required from the floor

• Limiting any one pipe run to no more than 120m,

from the manifold and back.

Greenfloor stainless steel manifolds feature flow

connections on the lower manifold section.

Incorporated flow meters allow each zone to

be accurately commissioned.

The zone specifications and the optimum number of ports

will be provided in the package of information provided by

the Worcester Design Service.

The outlets of the manifold are 3/4" and easily connect with

Greenfloor PE-Xc system pipe using 3/4" to 14mm or 16mm

adaptors, according to the diameter of the pipe specified.

The upper manifold section contains the return

connections, again using 3/4" adaptor fittings, the

Greenfloor PE-Xc system pipe can be easily connected.

Each port on the return manifold includes a 30mm

threaded connection which incorporates a manual isolating

valve and is expected to be replaced with a 230V actuator.

This enables full control over each zone using either a wired

or wireless control platform and wiring centre.

Each manifold section also features a fill and drain

point with a sealing cap provided, an automatic air

vent and 1" connections to the chosen Greenfloor

pump and mixing station.

Greenfloor manifold cabinets

A Greenfloor manifold

cabinet may be specified

and selected to offer a

neat and tidy finish to

the installation.

Available as either flush

mounted, which can be

recessed into a wall prior

to final plastering taking

place, or surface mounted,

which fits directly to a

finished wall surface.

• It is suggested the screed is left to thoroughly dry for a

further 7 day period. However this may be reduced so

long as the installer of the finished floor is satisfied that

any remaining moisture levels are within the specification

of the finished floor product.

• The Greenfloor installation should be switched off and

the screed allowed to cool for 3 days before installation

of the finished floor product commences.

Accommodating expansion

All installations must be provided around the perimeter with

a means of accommodating the expansion of the screed or

the dry construction components. This takes the form of

the Greenfloor edging insulation strip.

Wet screed expansion

Large areas of screed floor

(over 40m2) may also require

regular Greenfloor expansion

joint sections to physically

separate the screed. These

are self adhesive and fix easily

to the floor fixing method. If

Greenfloor pipe positioning

panels are being used, a

Greenfloor rounded section should be installed

to provide a level platform upon which to install

the expansion joint section.

Wherever a screed expansion joint is added, the Greenfloor

PE-Xc system pipe should be protected by a Greenfloor

expansion protection tube to a distance of 300mm in

each direction.

Further information on wet and dry screed expansion

can be found in the British Standards and Building

Regulations as well as from the screed suppliers.

Floor finishes for dry screed installations

• The finished floor must be installed immediately after

pressure testing is complete to protect the installation.

• Laminate floor finishes with interlocking joints must be a

minimum of 7mm thick.

• Plywood or chipboard floor finishes can be used but

should be a minimum of 15mm thick with glued tongue

and groove edges.

• Alternatives to plywood or chipboard fi nishes offering a

lower resistance to heat output are also available.

Further information can be found at your local builder’s

merchants.

Preparing for commissioning

• Before the Greenfloor installation is operated the system

pressure must be reduced to normal working pressure of

1.5 bar by draining off via the fill and drain point.

• The isolating valves between the pump and mixing

station and the stainless steel manifold can then be

opened to connect the heat source circuit with the

Greenfloor installation.

Greenfloor offers a number of combinations of controls

and Greenfloor pump and mixing stations to suit individual

installation needs.

Comprehensive wiring instructions are supplied with

each bespoke installation design provided by the

Worcester Design Service, in addition to those supplied

with the product. These are available to download from

Greenfloor controls – wireless (RF)

The Greenfloor wireless

wiring centre provides a very

easy to install control system

without the restrictions of

running cables to each

individual room thermostat.

The Greenfloor wireless

wiring centre features a 7 day programmer which enables

each of the zones connected to be controlled completely

independently. Within each zone a Greenfloor surface

mounted wireless room thermostat is fitted and through

a simple pairing process is set to control the appropriate

230V actuator outputs within the wiring centre.

The wiring centre is capable of receiving signals from

a maximum of 8 surface-mounted wireless room

thermostats and is able to provide output to a maximum

of 16 actuators. The wiring centre also provides two

separate volt-free interlock relays, one to control the

heat source and one to control the Greenfloor pump

and mixing station’s circulation pump.

In larger installations it is possible to use more than one

wiring centre. The wiring centres are to be wired in

harmony to control the heat source and the Greenfloor

pump and mixing station’s circulation pump.

Greenfloor controls – 230V wired

The Greenfloor 230V wiring

centre provides an easy to

install control system where

running cables to each

individual room thermostat is

not a barrier, for example in

new build and major

renovation installations.

Clearly identified and spring loaded connections mean

installing cables can be completed efficiently.

The Greenfloor 230V wiring centre is capable of receiving

inputs from a maximum of 6 230V room temperature

devices and is able to provide output to a maximum of

14 actuators. The wiring centre also provides an interlock

relay to control the heat source and the Greenfloor pump

and mixing station’s circulation pump.

Greenfloor controls – recessed 230V

programmable room thermostat

The Greenfloor recessed 230V

programmable room thermostat

features 3 factory set programmes,

selectable and adjustable at time

of commissioning and operates on

a 7 day basis. This enables individual

days to be programmed differently

if necessary. The programmable room thermostat also

provides a 230V output when a reduced temperature

economy mode is entered. This instructs the Greenfloor

wiring centre that all dependent zones should also enter

reduced temperature economy mode. Practically, this means

that typically a single programmable room thermostat can be

used per floor. For example, when a surface mounted 230V

room thermostat is being used in each room, offering

individual temperature control, it works to the same time

patterns as the lead programmable room thermostat.

Greenfloor controls – surface mounted

230V room thermostat

The Greenfloor surface mounted room

thermostat allows for temperature

control within each zone and is able to

accept the 230V economy mode signal

from a programmable room thermostat.

It is possible to use any combination of 230V room

temperature devices so long as the installation complies with

current Building Regulations. Further advice will be provided

in the specification package supplied by the Worcester

Design Service bespoke to each installation’s needs.

Greenfloor pump and mixing stations

Greenfloor offers a number of pump

and mixing stations to suit individual

installation needs.

The Greenfloor FRS standard and VRS

pump and mixing stations are

designed to be installed directly onto

the Greenfloor stainless steel manifold.

The Greenfloor FRS standard pump and mixing station can

satisfy a maximum designed heat output of 8kW

and features a fixed temperature control output.

The Greenfloor VRS pump and mixing stations are available

in two heat outputs. One to satisfy 7kW maximum output

and the larger model to provide a 10kW maximum heat

output. Both feature intelligent weather compensated flow

temperature output.

The Greenfloor KMS pump and mixing

stations do not fit directly to the

Greenfloor stainless steel manifold.

Instead they offer installation flexibility

by being installed in a remote location,

such as near to the heat source

or within a plant room. They can be

installed in any position between the

heat source and the Greenfloor

stainless steel manifold.

The Greenfloor KMS pump and mixing stations are able to

offer the greatest heat outputs of any Greenfloor pump and

mixing station. Available in two heat outputs, a 15kW and

25kW maximum heat output, both feature intelligent

weather compensated flow temperature output.

The very best training programmes from Worcester Worcester has always placed great emphasis on technical

support and training for installers and service engineers.

Advances in heating technology, including the increasing use

of renewables, make the need for training greater than ever.

To ensure the highest levels of competence and expertise in the

installation of all Worcester products, the company runs intensive

training courses for installers, commissioning engineers and

operatives involved with servicing and fault finding.

Courses available

Our training facilities offer a number of courses suitable

for the installer and commissioning engineers, and more

in-depth courses for the servicing and fault finding engineers.

Training centres throughout the UK

To enable us to meet the growing demand for training we

have invested in additional facilities at the award-winning

training academy at our Worcester headquarters. In addition

to the original academy there is now a new 400m2 unit, 25%

of which is devoted to an open-plan domestic training area

with life-size single-storey brick buildings. These feature

working Greenskies solar thermal systems which enable

installers to get up onto the roof of the building to get more

realistic training. There are bays full of all Greenstar gas-fired

appliances, so installers can really get to grips with the

importance of system design. The additional space will also

contain dedicated training areas for our renewable and future

products. The training centre will also run certified CODNC01

and COCN1 courses. CODNC01 equips installers with the

relevant qualifications for the changeover from domestic to

commercial gas work. COCN1 allows existing commercial

installers to renew their qualification.

Further academies are located at West Thurrock in Essex,

Bradford and Clay Cross in Derbyshire, all offering our full

suite of courses. Please phone 01905 752526 for more

information about a course near you. Each course is run

by specialist trainers and is superbly equipped to deliver

a combination of classroom theory and practical hands-on

experience that’s second to none.
