The Innovo Training Group's Air Source Heat Pump (ASHP) course is tailored for engineers seeking to develop the skills necessary to specify, survey, design, and install domestic and small commercial air source heat pump systems with a capacity of up to 16 kW.

- A combination of written and practical assessments

- Multiple-choice questions

- A design scenario

Upon successful completion of the assessments, participants will be awarded the RQF Level 3 Award in the Installation & Maintenance of Heat Pump Systems by LCL Awards.

- For the installation, servicing, and maintenance of ASHPs, participants must hold the WRAS qualification alongside this ASHP qualification.

- For designing ASHPs under MCS accreditation, the Level 3 Award in Low Temperature Heating and Hot Water Systems in Dwellings qualification is also required.
