Step-by-step training for heating engineers who want to level up

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:

• Flow & Pressure Loss - understand how system resistance affects performance — and how to balance flow rates for smoother, more efficient operation.
• Pump Sizing & Settings - discover how to choose the right pump for different heating loads, and how to set pump pressures to get the best out of your system.
• 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 - dive into modern controls and discover how weather compensation and PDHW (priority domestic hot water) can dramatically improve system responsiveness and efficiency.
• Troubleshooting Real-World Issues - from short cycling boilers to poor hydronic separation, we’ll show you how to spot and fix the common install mistakes that lead to underperforming systems.

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:

• Balance Flow Rates with Precision - you’ll understand how flow and resistance interact — and how to properly balance circuits to avoid uneven heating, noisy systems, and pump strain.
• Select and Set Pumps Accurately - you’ll know how to choose the right pump for the job based on system load and layout, and how to adjust pump settings for optimal performance and energy savings.
• Size Pipes Correctly to Reduce Pressure Loss - you’ll be able to calculate the right pipe diameter and flow velocity, reducing system strain and improving both efficiency and comfort.
• Use Modern Controls to Boost Efficiency - you’ll get hands-on understanding of compensation controls and how priority domestic hot water (PDHW) works — so you can improve system responsiveness and comfort.
• Diagnose and Fix Common Installation Mistakes - from short cycling and incorrect separation to pump positioning issues, you’ll know how to spot the root causes of poor performance — and fix them fast.
• Lay the Groundwork for Heat Pump Design - With a solid understanding of flow, control, and efficiency, you’ll be ready to move confidently into designing and fitting heat pump systems.

What's in the programme:

1. Kick-Off Day – In Person, Hands On - start strong with a full day of practical, face-to-face learning led by one of the industry's most respected coaches. You’ll get stuck into real-world hydronic design, modern system thinking and come away with new skills, fresh insights and a serious confidence boost.

2. Learn Online, Your Way - no boring slideshows here — just focused, bite-sized modules you can work through at your own pace. Every lesson is packed with practical knowledge that you can use straight away on the job. The online training modules will be released later this year and you’ll be the first to experience them.

3. A Recognised Qualification That Sets You Apart - complete the online learning and you’ll earn your RQF Level 3 Low Temperature Hot Water (LTHW) qualification.

4. Smart Support, Whenever You Need It – Meet Kimbot AI - you’re never on your own. With Kimbot, your AI-powered support tool, you’ll have expert guidance, community insights, and troubleshooting help at your fingertips — 24/7. Kimbot will be released later this year with exclusive access for course members only.

5. For Pilot Attendees - access to Live Expert Sessions – Free for 2 Months - join our live online Q&As and deep dives with heating experts. It’s your chance to ask questions, explore real-world challenges, and stay sharp, all included at no extra cost.
