    Basics for a refrigeration wannabe



    I am starting a course in London on the 15th it is a four day course on the basics and hands on. I just wondered if i need any info to give me a bit of an insider view as to what to expect.

    It's great that you are trying to get an education in this profession even if it's only for 4 days However we in the states normally require a 5 year apprenticship and working 40 hours and over 2000 hours of schooling before you become a certified journeyman. We all have to start somewere and this short class may let you know if you want to persue this further. Good luck!

    Buy Refrigeration and AC technology by Whitman and Johnson, its a great guide !.
    I sat a 1yr course and got two C&G's in AC. It's like driving, you gotta do it to learn it.

    Nothing simple in it mate and for freezed riers we're talking of multistage cascade at best, if you're unlucky an Autocascade, weird little toads they are but they are the best!
