Design and install smarter heating systems with confidence
Still Installing Like It’s 1985? It’s Time to Rethink Hydronics.
Hydronics is the science of how water flows through a heating system to deliver heat efficiently. It’s the foundation of every wet heating system, whether it’s gas, oil or a heat pump and yet, it’s often completely missing from modern domestic heating training.
We’re still fitting systems like we did 40 years ago. That’s totally out of sync with condensing boilers and heat pumps—and it’s the root cause of most problems we see in the field.
— Kimbo Betty, Warmur Academy Co-Founder
Hydronics Unlocked is our game-changing hydronics programme designed to equip you with the skills to reduce inefficiencies, avoid costly mistakes and create systems that just work. We teach using hands-on real-world problems so you leave with the confidence to design and install systems that stand out from the crowd.
Who is it for?
- Experienced heating engineers who want to sharpen their gas boiler skills and stay ahead of the curve.
- Newly qualified and are craving clear, practical answers that actually help on the job.
- Installing gas or oil boilers but curious about making the move into heat pumps.
- Already fitting heat pumps but still feel like there are a few missing pieces you can’t quite figure out.
- Designing systems on paper and want to back it up with solid, hands-on understanding of how things work in the real world.
Whether you're working with traditional boilers, exploring heat pumps or designing full systems from the ground up, this course gives you the practical skills and understanding you need to deliver better results on every job.
What You’ll Learn:
- Our unique 10-Step process - design any heating system with a clear step by step process and simply maths
- Flow & Pressure Loss - understand how system resistance affects performance and how to balance flow rates for smoother, more efficient operation.
- Pump Sizing & Settings - understand how to calculate pump pressure and match pump performance to system needs
- Pipe Sizing & Velocity Control - learn why pipe size matters more than you think. We’ll show you how to calculate the right diameter to reduce pressure loss and boost energy efficiency.
- Compensation Controls & Modulation - understand how modern compensation controls improve performance.
- Future proof your skills- build confidence and skills for heat pump work.
What you’ll be able to do after this course
By the end of the course, you’ll have the practical skills and understanding to design and install heating systems that perform better, last longer, and are ready for the future. Here’s what you’ll be able to do with confidence:
- Use our 10 step process in your everyday work - use simple maths to deliver an excellent system every time
- Balance flow rates with precision - understand how flow and resistance interact and the value of 'valve authority'
- Select and Set Pumps Accurately - know how to calculate resistance and the index circuit to size and set the pump for a balanced performance.
- Size Pipes Correctly to Reduce Pressure Loss - calculate the right pipe diameter and flow velocity and design retrofit systems that work brilliantly
- Use Modern Controls to Boost Efficiency - understand weather compensation controls and how to set them.
- Lay the Groundwork for Heat Pump Design - With a solid understanding of hydronics, you’ll be ready to move confidently into designing and fitting heat pump systems.
