Fireplace Installation Training System (FITS)
is now available online!
If your company is too small to invest in the FITS in-house training system, the Hearth, Patio & Barbecue Education Foundation (HPBEF) has brought this outstanding training program to you online.
This outstanding opportunity will enable your new installers to receive the same instruction the larger companies offer by working through the online sessions and completing the workbooks. Each installer uses his/her own set of workbooks, which have been developed to provide clear, short sessions with abundant illustrations, activities and concise text. The Fundamentals Workbook provides the basic knowledge about hearth appliances and venting systems, heat transfer and clearances, safety and consequences, that forms the foundation for understanding why attention to detail and following installation instructions to the letter is essential in the fireplace installation industry. The Installation Workbook covers the entire installation process and is organized by the different topics in installation instructions for B vent, direct vent, and unvented fireplaces and their venting systems.
FITS enhances your company’s commitment to provide cutting-edge installer training that can increase professionalism and reduce error and liability.
