3 months agoI took the course this week for the second time. Kimbo is a fountain of knowledge, he's engaging and has a gift for conveying quite sophisticated information in a clear and fun manner. The quality of the information and materials had me scratching my head for the last year and a half so I was keen to take the course a second time. I feel my IQ has just gone up, thanks Kimbo!

3 months agoHad been meaning to do this very well reputed course for a long time and finally got round to it! I was not dissapointed. A massive eye opner and very informative. Full of knowledge and the equipping the attendees with skills that every heating engineer needs and should be implementing to ensure maximum efficiency in the systems we design and fit. Which will benefit the end user for years to come and our

3 months agoI did the training course with Kimbo and I have the best training I could ever wish. So much knowledge you can get in 2 days training. I LOVE IT.I highly recommend the course. There is huge value on this course. I can say that my perception of doing the heat pump installation change totally and I will have to go back to couple of my jobs to improve the installation based on the information provided by Kimbo.
Great informative course
3 months agoAmazing, informative course. Every day knowledge. Well presented!
Chris muller
3 months agoSecond time around for me on this course, came back for a refresher after my first visit in 2022. Course was really we delivered, glad I’ve done it twice now as the first time can always be a bit daunting. Definitely recommending to fellow engineers. Great work !
Vincent
3 months agoGreat 2 days, opened my mind up toa new way of looking at things. Have a good breakfast as you will need your concentration for this one.
Johnoye Campbell
3 months agoWhat an eye opener this course has been for me just to know that 99% of engineer currently don't understand why we actually do things or know how to size pipes and such, I'm really thankful and happy that I've attended this course quite alot of information to take in and that which is going to take me some time to understand all of this but I'm sure I'll be going and can't wait for the next course, Kimbo is really passionate about helping us engineers to become better at what we do
Paul Kent
3 months agoA very well delivered training course by Kimbo. You can clearly tell how passionate he is about wanting to make us better heating engineers. I was genuinely suprised how much I don’t know about a job I’ve been doing for the last 15 years . I’ve already recommended to other friends that are also gas engineers.I’d be extremely interested in any further courses that Kimbo has to offer
Ben Boncza
3 months agoVery interesting and informative 2 days training. Teaching the fundamentals of system detail in a practical and paletable way, without overcomplicating things. Usually come away from courses frustrated by the lack of actual knowledge gained from the time invested. Quite the opposite with this course! Great stuff Kimbo. Thank you
Paul Frost
3 months agoExcellent course, delivered by a man whose knowledge and experience is immense. I learnt so much throughout the two day course and would recommend it to everyone. Kimbo, your a credit to the industry.
Dave toale
3 months agoGreat coarse delivered in a way that was easy to understand would recommend for anyone at any level.Thanks kimbo
Steve Reyt
3 months agoWow what a course! I was told it was going to be good and it was. These two days really opened my eyes as to how lazy we have become in this field of heating. Straight forward talking backed by amazing knowledge, Kimbo you are a credit the industry. This course is a must for anyone trying to better themselves.
Matty
4 months agoWow, opened my eyes completely to what we haven’t been doing right for so long. Was a lot to take in during 2 days but Kimbo made it easy to understand. Would definitely recommend going on this course!!!
Chris Hutler
4 months agoAn excellent insight into hydronics that has definitely changed my mindset and got me thinking. It was great to spend a couple of days with like minded people and if the course content wasn’t already good enough the extra added comedy value from Kimbos humour was brilliant. Pleasure to meet kimbo a real nice guy with impeccable knowledge.
sam
4 months agoThis course was a real eye opener on how we should be doing things and was delivered amazingly over the two days. Kimbo really gets you thinking but breaks it down in layman’s terms which made it so much easier to grasp. Definitely the best course I’ve been on
Wallace chunga
4 months agoI truly believe that there isn't a way that describes how brilliant kimbo’s training is, but I will try my best to give an in depth picture.Regardless of whether you intend to work with low-temperature heating or any other heat source, this course is a must-do because the Fundamentals are the same. The way the course is packaged is brilliant because it instantly puts your mind into gear from the onset. Kimbo has a way of relaying theory into brilliant practical analogies that are easy to consume but provide maximum understanding. This course is far from a tick-box exercise, as it gives you plenty of exercises to complete. Because the workbook alone has been designed in a way that flows with the training book, this results in a clear understanding of low-temperature heating and system design. I firmly believe only a trainer with relevant experience in the industry and the determination to produce highly competent engineers can pull this off in the two days that Kimbo did. I believe the course should be an industry standard and that other professional bodies, such as architects, would benefit too.Having worked in the industry for close to 10 years now, I was shocked by how much I didn't know and understand correctly. I feel transformed. There seems to have been a lot of “unconscious incompetence.”The training book is brilliant. It cuts to the chase and gives you everything you need on-site, making it very easy to consume as an on-site guide.Multiple attendees said, “You can tell he's really trying to cram in as much as he can to help us understand and be better engineers.” Honestly, I have to agree.So, I highly recommend this course. I would even go as far as saying attend it more than once if you can; I will.Colleges should consider sending apprentices to this training; they are the future and will set the future industry standard through this training. The green future looks bright.What are you waiting for? BOOK IT NOW!!
Ryan
4 months agoAmazing 2 days of training which was jam packed full of great insightful content. Kimbo made difficult concepts easy to understand and completely relevant, whilst injecting his amazing personality into every element which made the course fun.I would say I have learnt more in 2 days than any other training and would certainly recommend to anyone looking to better themselves in the world of hydronics.
Jon Garvey
4 months agoIf you haven’t done this course yet, do it. It’s a real eye opener. Kimbo is an expert at making the difficult bits easy to understand. It really is worth every penny
Mark Dibblee (Dibs)
4 months agoKimbo is a Legend, this chap questions everything, and every action, leading to an in-depth FACT based course. Superb for those that think they know a lot, go and find out how much you dont know ! Worth every penny, just too much maths for me, I gave up writing in the figures - more interested in listening to what Kimbo has to say. Thank you so much indeed.
Matt Blackmore
4 months ago600 mile round trip for two days in the classroom.Worth every minute/mile.Excellent.
Jack lynch
4 months agoGreat course packed full of useful info, kimbo is a credit to the industry, highly recommend, only criticism is I struggled to keep up with the maths or where to find the figures being used, more of a reflection on my abilities than the course tho.
Ray Millett
4 months agoKimbo MUST BE the most knowledgeable man in this industry. The course is the best course I’ve very been on, just too short. Kimbo’s enthusiasm is for improving our industry is infectious. I commend this course to every engineer who strives to do a good job!!
Karl curtis
4 months agoGreat course, well structured and course content was easy to follow and understand. This course is definitely the best hydronics course i have been on.
Shaun walker
5 months agoBrilliantly structured session.Pleasure to have attended and would attend again in future & highly recommend.
Matt Piddington
5 months agoThis course is something I have wanted to attend for a while, and I wasn’t disappointed. The content of the course is something I would strongly recommend that every heating engineer should complete. Having the better understanding of pipework sizing, flowrate and pressure loss doesn’t only benefit ASHP installations, but supports fault diagnosis and installations of central heating systems.
John Buckley
5 months ago10/10Your explanation over 2 days is unique!Kimbo, you are one in a million and exactly what the industry needs.YOU are leading the charge to change!
Jake Francis
5 months ago2nd time here! Very helpful course. If you are a heating engineer or a gas engineer then you 100% need to go. Thanks again Kimbo!
Jamie walker
5 months agoAmazing & a fantastic teacher.Learnt loads and after 24years as a heating engineer I’ve realisedI’ve been doing it all wrong lol What a fantastic lesson delivered by a brilliant blokeWe need more of this
Sam Chrimes
5 months agoI learnt so much on this course! I would recommend it to anyone even if you’re installing gas boiler or heat pumps! Kimbo made doing the calculations as easy as he could for us and never over complicated anything. It has really opened my eyes to how we install things atm and how easily we can improve boiler efficiency and so simply by just doing the maths! Thanks again Kimbo!
Jonny Heaslip
5 months agoExcellent two day course.Kimbo certainly knows his stuff.Everything was explained with great enthusiasm and understanding.System design and ideas for control have really stuck in my mind after this course. I will be draining down and reconfiguring my own system very soon after this, plus plenty of tweaks to my upcoming jobs.Highly recommend to any installer.Cheers Kimbo!!!
Rob Atkin
5 months agoReally worthwhile and thoroughly enjoyable course to attend. Kimbo’s input and knowledge in how he explains things (in his oh so charming no nonsense manner ) makes it so that every gas engineer (experienced and/or new) will learn something new and be better at their work. Dare i say better than Heat Geek? Thank you.
Steven Gibson
5 months agoConfirmed and gave the maths to back up what i suspected and was trying to put into place, i have much more confidence moving forward. Makes ypu question more !!
Loved the course such wealth of information
5 months agoLoved the Cour.Se such wealth of information which I will be applying on my jobs in the future. I thought the teaching was delivered in a way where we could understand and would recommend the course. To all my plumbing associates, thank you, kimbo. Hope to speak soon.
Simon Pankhurst
5 months agoKimbo is a great guy. It has been the best course I’ve been on in 26 years as a plumber. Would highly recommend to anyone if they haven’t been on it.
Antonio
5 months agoFirst time attempting Kimbo's course and really enjoyed! I wish I would have signed up for this before. So much precious informations never really mentioned on any previous courses I took part of. Kimbo has a really straight forward and unique way to teach which makes things really easy to understand.Thank you Kimbo
Martyn
5 months agoDown to earth, enthusiastic and easy to understand.This was by far the best training experience I've had. I've been in the heating business for 20 years and been on many courses, but this stood out from the rest. I was told that if you go on Kimbo's course everything will just make sense, and it certaintly did.I will be recommending this course to everyone, and even stealing bits to teach in my own manufacturing training days.Awesome, thank you.
NRG HEATING AND PLUMBING SOLUTIONS
5 months agoIt was my second time attending the course and I couldn’t recommend the course enough. Kimbo is a great teacher and a very knowledgeable guy. Also a very nice man.
Blaine
5 months agoWish I had found this course at the start of my journey. Great delivery from Kimbo !
Jon
6 months agoI learnt so much and enjoyed the two days as well. Really useful information delivered in a way that makes it easier to understand and hopefully retain. Especially with the book. Ready reckoners in the form of tables and ways of working to use on site will hopefully see me putting all this new found knowledge into practice and cementing techniques that we learnt.Kim is a real asset to the industry, approachable and down to earth. Sharing information and ways of working that we should all have been taught from the beginning.Thank you
Neil
6 months agoExceptional ! For anyone working in the heating profession, a priority should be made to enroll on Kimbo's course.This is not another stale course stuck in the past, presented by someone with little interest, it is very much in the present and the future. Kimbo's extraordinary enthusiasm and experience is evident from the very beginning, the whole group in silence, fully engaged throughout with continual two way interaction, asking and be asked relevant questions.The course is clear, concise, relevant, appropriate and understandable. It is not just theory, but has a strong emphasis on applying that theory to everyday practical work. It includes streamlined reference material that will be useful for working life - not a bookshelf filler !The course is rewarding and also enjoyable. I wish I had done it years ago.Thank you
Max
6 months agoA real informative and intense course to enlighten you and help you understand how much you didn’t know about heating design . Cleared up so many grey areas for me. Delivered in an enthusiastic simplified and down to earth manner. Thanks for the teaching Kimbo
Ravi
6 months agoWelcome to the world of actually understanding whats involved in being a heating engineer. An excellent course that delivers so much….…book on and don’t hesitate would be my advice!
Aaron loosley
6 months agoThe course was a real eye-opener, highlighting our industry of outdated practices that have persisted for far too long. Kimbo provided clear explanations of the science behind hydronics without the jargon that makes you feel like you have to be a rocket scientist to understand it. Highly recommend
Sean Sullivan
6 months agoWithout doubt the best, and most enjoyable, course I've ever taken. Will recommend to anyone in the industry, it was soo satisfying to understanding heating, flow and pumps, the way Kimbo explains it, a large volume of information taken in yet really easy on the brain! Amazing
Brian Grant
6 months agoVery privileged to finally learn from the man himself. A very informative and practical course delivered in captivating fashion. Well worth the trip from Ireland! Cheers Kimbo - 5 Star!
Matt Stonehouse
6 months agoEveryone need to be on this course if fitting heat pumps and boilersAn immersive fun experience over two days no stone left unturned, straight forward and simple to get to grips with. I'd advise every engineer to book onKimbo what a legend
Craig Walters
6 months agoOutstanding 2days of learning.After completing many courses in the past this has to be the best by a country mile. I have never taken so much information from a course as this. The Way Kim gets the information across and simplifies it all makes it a must do.
Matt
6 months agoWhat a legend! I’v always struggled in classrooms but the way Kimbo explains hydronics has you captivated for what are two intense days. It’s incredible how he can explain what he can in that time and still have you remembering it and laughing days after. A great skill to have and a great bloke. If you want to learn the ins and out of system designing then do this course. It even includes a three way and two ugly sisters in the price! You certainly won’t regret or forget it.
David Lynch Smart energy homes
6 months agoThis course is a step by step, easy method course that will surely open your eyes. The course was insightful and amazing. The information given by kimbo is priceless. Highly recommend this course. Thank you.

6 months agoHi Kimbo,I just wanted to say Thank you for the course last week, I have been employed for nearly 20 and previous bosses/colleagues etc could never give me the answers to designing systems or even offer an explanation as to where the answers could be found and so I have been using a rule of thumb method and drawing from my own experience for probably my entire career! Why they didn't strive to know or encourage me to better myself I will never know!I don't know how you did it but I was hooked on every word you said from the 1st sentence; I really did find it so interesting and the way you put it across was the best in all the training I've ever had.I went self employed last year and on one of my 1st jobs decided to follow building regulations where I realized I had limited knowledge on proper system design; I could design and install any system and it would work but I could never give any specific figures. Your course has filled in the missing link and I have immediately started putting this into play. As I said last week; I just wish I had known this stuff 10 or even 15 years ago.I have always been interested in the technical side and I am now like a kid in a sweet shop armed with this knowledge and better understanding.Loved your analogies and I look forward to the warmur academy online part as a refresher..What you are doing is absolutely brilliant for the whole industry and there must be thousands upon thousands of plumbers out there that are just winging it as I now feel I have been doing for too long. Best of luck with your future health and hope you do get to enjoy some part of a retirement without having to work too much next year. Thank you so much for an absolute career changing 2 days last week and I will certainly be on the lookout for any more opportunities to further my knowledge again.Best regards Chris
Mike Ellis
7 months agoKimbo’s enthusiasm is contagious!!His extensive knowledge has been condensed into this course and the accompanying workbook blends this all seamlessly. All the hard work has been done and further broken down into simple to follow calculations with accompanying examples.The topics covered gave me confidence in ‘what I thought I knew’ but, more importantly, explained clearly more complex areas in a common sense fashion so they weren’t as daunting.I can see why people go back as it’s such an eye opening course and ‘flips a switch’ in terms of heating system design. I already have a project in mind in which to apply this newly found knowledge.I was anxious to begin with but everyone on the course has a similar mindset and wants to improve therefore helping each other.
Sebastian Maculewicz
7 months agoAbsolutely fantastic course. Kimbo’s ability to teach and present complex hydronic subject in a very simple way makes this course available for everyone, regardless of whether you are experienced or just starting out like myself. Every day is very intensive and packed with knowledge to the brim which enables you to make decisions based on facts and simple calculation like every engineer should do. Thanks Kimbo
TJ Gas
7 months agoAre you ready to have your mind blown away? Well this is the course for you. I now have a completely different approach to designing heating systems. You will walk away from the course wanting more. I can't recommend it enough
Jamie Jack
7 months agoThe course was excellent. I have already recommended the course to others. I went there wanting to learn and in Kimbo met someone who genuinely wanted to teach. It’s the best course I have ever been on.
Jamie hunt
7 months agoFantastic course well delivered by kimbo, with on going support. If you havent done it or are thinking of doing it, get on it, an eye opener about design and hydronics. You will not be dissapointed 100 recommend to everyone

Ryan D’Cunha
9 months agoCouldn’t recommend this training enough! The way Kimbo breaks down information is second to none.Most information I’ve ever taken from a course.
Don Graham
9 months ago2nd time I’ve done Kimbo’s course & I can’t recommend it highly enough. Kim’s content & style really makes you think about how you approach low temp design without the complexity of multiple decimal point calculations.If you’re serious about improving your installs & design this is a great place to start
Michael Mckeown
9 months agoFantastic course, far better than the geeky online one I did. Kimbo simplifies the subjects and makes them more practical to use in the real world that plumbing and heating engineers work in. I will be sending my apprentice on this course when he is ready, thank you.
Alan Rothwell
9 months agoI would recommend this course to anyone in the industry from a new starter to someone who has been doing this for decades. This will change your mindset and approach to hydronics. Kimbo, thanks for parting with your knowledge.Set aside 2 days in your diary, book and attend this course, it wont be wasted!
Dan Hood
9 months agoAbsolutely brilliant course and if anyone wants to take their work to a whole other level then this is the course for you. Kimbos energy and enthusiasm is infectious and you can tell he genuinely has a passion for what he’s teaching and he also manages to keep it full of humour along the way. Very knowledgeable guy and brilliant to meet you.Thanks again Kimbo
Ryan Brown
9 months agoFirst time attending the course, my brain has been put in a blender and my thoughts are now purée.In all seriousness, Kimbo’s course has opened my eyes to the state of the industry, we’ve been doing it wrong for so long and things need to change.If you can spare a few days out of your work week to attend this course, don’t even hesitate. No matter how much you think you know, you’ll be guaranteed to learn something.There’s something great about being in a room of 15 other heating engineers, bouncing ideas about, discussing jobs, techniques and next steps.I’ll definitely be returning next year for a refresher.Thanks for the opportunity Kimbo, top man!
Anthony meek
9 months agoAfter doing similar hydronic courses in the past Kimbos course is still such an eye opener and much more straight to the point and less jargon than other courses I’ve been on - recommend everyone who’s wanting to stop the guess work in heating to jump on this course - by the end you won’t be winging it! You’ll know what you’re doing
Jason Sutton
9 months agoWhat can I say! Absolutely Brilliant course delivered by Kimbo, I would highly recommend this to anyone in the industry whether just starting out or been doing it for years (like myself). Kimbos delivery is amazing and his enthusiasm, humour etc is inspiring. Thanks mate

Ricardo Klassen
9 months agoBest heating course iv done so far, Kimbo really went in depth into hydronics and made it so simple, this has definitely changed my outlook on how I approach my work, a definite GAME CHANGER for me.This course should be made a standard for all heating engineers, definitely worth the time and money.
Matthew Butler
9 months agoGreat course, good to know that I didn’t know to much prior to the course and I have been at it a long time.My brain aches after the two days.Kimbo’s enthusiasm is infectious, he is a fountain of knowledge
Ed
9 months agoStill processing the last two days, Kimbo has definitely opened my eyes & inspired me!Lots of information to take on board, but will benefit both you & your customers.If you get chance to attend this course - do it. Everyone in the heating industry should!Thank you Kimbo.
Declan Gallagher
9 months agoHas got to be up there with one of the best courses I have taken to date. The course was a deep dive into hydronics without the faff and was clear, detailed and concise.Despite the days being long and intense (due to sheer amount of information and knowledge being shared) not one of us wanted to leave early. This was mainly down to Kimbos passion and engaging teaching methods.I couldn’t recommend this course for someone wanting to further their knowledge enough!
Daryl Evans
9 months agoBest course out there right now by a country mile. So much more relevant to installers every day working life compared to the heat geek course.Have already recommended to others to get booked on it. Can’t speak highly enough of the course and Kim
Alec Calderbank
9 months agoKimbo is a man of excellence and quality, his course is delivered passionately and with the expert experience you’d expect from someone who does this because they care. I think he and his training are without equal in this industry and I think anyone looking to work in heating should be on this course. Absolutely top notch.
Ollie Chuter
9 months agoReally enjoyable, informative course on Hydronics, delivered by Kimbo in an easy to take in, humorous way in a relaxed atmosphere. I couldn’t recommend the course highly enough to any Heating Engineers looking to up their game.
Mihai Ficu
10 months agoGreat couple of days learning everything you need to know to design and upgrade heating systems. Low temp and control strategies. Kim is very approachable and explains everything very well. I feel much more confident to take on bigger jobs and leave S and Y plans in the past where they belong:)
Michael Jepson
10 months agoA brilliant and well delivered course from Kimbo. The Hydronics 2 day course is an eye opener and what all installers should be doing. A lot to take in over the 2 days but the booklet and handouts allow you to follow the instructions with practical exercises throughout the course.Many Thanks
Daniel Green
10 months agoBy far the best course I have been on. Very inspiring and so informative. Lots of information to take so I’ll be back . Kimbo is great at how he explained everything.Thanks
Jon Howden
10 months agoI’d just like to say thank you.I have just been on the Hydronics course for the last 2 days and really found it eye opening. So much so, I’m keen to learn further and cement home the true principles of domestic heating.Kimbo no nonsense approach definitely had merit and the course was a breath of fresh air.Do you run any other courses? I’d certainly be interested in them if so.Thanks again
Dave Green
10 months agoLoved yesterdays course mate has really inspired me to do things the right way.Will probably be back at some point as a lot of information to absorbThanks
Mike Belway
10 months agoI’d just like to say thank you.I have just been on the Hydronics course for the last 2 days and really found it eye opening.

I’d certainly be interested in them if so.
Jack Thomson
10 months agoFirstly what a cracking and funny bloke. Came away from the course with so much new and useable information. Literally eye opening. All the information was very technical but put across in a way we can understand. Will certainly change my approach when doing installations.
Chris Pain
10 months agoWhat an eye opener! A fantastic course, Kimbo really knows his stuff and is a really nice guy. These are full on days with a relaxed atmosphere and explained in a way you’ll understand. If you want to better your knowledge, this is the course! Be warned, this is no manufacturer training day.
Matthew Humphreys
10 months agoGenuinely outstanding. This is an absolute must, I’ve come away armed to the teeth with knowledge and I can not wait to start using it. I know I can make a real difference on my installs and fault finding now on. Kimbo delivered seriously technical stuff in a way us heating engineers can understand and made it hilarious too - great course Kimbo and great delivery
Chris Oglesby
10 months agoOne of the best training courses I’ve been on. 2 days packed full of information, Kimbo really knows he’s stuff. Highly recommend this course
Dan Foster
10 months agoAt the beginning when i saw the 1st slides on the presentation, thought i was out of my depth... but the way everything was delivered and broken down, it was not long before I was able to get my head around it and when I got stuck Kimbo further explained things. Overall the course is fantastic value for money, in 2 days i've learnt so much.
Mark Butcher
10 months agoAmazing course, I wish this course was about 25years ago when I started in the industry and before I had been on all the accredited and manufacturer courses, which by the way don’t even come close to the amount of knowledge I’ve gained from Kimbo. It’s two days which are quite heavy and long but I’d do again without a doubt.This should be part of everybody’s initial training into our industry.
Jack Tokarski
10 months agoGreat training course. So much information on how to better your skills and knowledge as an engineer. Kimbo was super easy to follow even when parts of the course became tough. highly recommended
Dr Pipe London
10 months agoCouple of great days spent with Kimbo.. A course without the Bxxxxxks Def worth attending if you get the opportunity
Stephen coyle
10 months agoI went on Kimbo’s course as a surveyor but left feeling like a man with a tall forehead as Kimbo puts it. He explained calculating pipe and pump sizing in an easy to follow but simple way. I’d highly reccomend to anyone in the industry at any level to get on this course. Hopefully it will be online soon also!
Lee Maher
10 months agoExcellent course and put across just how plumbers and heating engineers can understand. Anyone thinking of fitting a heat pump needs to get on the course.
Andy
10 months agoBrilliant course a must do for anyone that wants to understand hydronics and getting the best out of a heating system. Kimbo has put together a top course that's easy to follow he's a very approachable guy so you don't feel stupid asking any questions of quiries you might have. There is a lot of info to take in over the 2 days but the booklets you get covers everything you learn on the course. Cheers Kimbo
Josh
10 months agoGreat course with no unnecessary faff , would highly recommend.
James Williams
10 months agoIt’s the f f f f first training course that I have ever done where I have come away from the course feeling like it was worth every penny, Kimbo certainly knows his stuff and get the information across great clarity. Would highly recommend, thanks Kimbo
Ben Courtnage
10 months agoJust completed the 2 day hydronics course in Newbury.I must say this one most informative well planned out courses ive ever been on! Some really complex but interesting stuff made understandable by a great teacher.Thanks kimbo!
John McGregor
a year agoI did the hydronics course.I’ve not, in twenty years in industry been on a course that has been as informative and relevant. Kimbo is very passionate, the strategy just makes sense and the numbers stack up. As our customers ever increasingly ask how they can save on energy. We can now better design and implement better strategies, very cost effectively. I can definitely recommend it.
Martin Carroll
a year agoExcellent Course, Kimbo is a brilliant teacher, makes everyting very simple to understand and most importantly put into real life.Cant recommend this course enough if you want to up skill in the heating industry.Its all about the FLOW!Thanks Kimbo
Konstantin
a year agoCan't really thank Kimbo enough for all the efforts have been put into creating such a brilliant course, absolutely amazing! Just right amount of theory to understand the physics followed by real life examples of applications to help understand boiler choice, pipe sizing, pump setting up, radiators sizing and a lot more. Heat pump retrofitting aspect was incredibly helpfull. Surely I cannot recommend it enough
Marcus Diamond
a year agoJust finished the course and loved it. I’ve done lots of courses over and career and this best one. I’ve learnt so much in 2 days I would’ve been happy to spend the whole week training with Kimbo, he’s a legend.
Paul Brown
a year agoI’ve been in the plumbing and heating industry for just over 40yrs and attended many training courses, the couple of days spent with Kimbo for me has been really informative and enjoyable.For anyone thinking of going into fitting heat pumps this course will give you confidence to size pipe work, radiators and pumps.This course is the best investment that you will make in yourself, I cannot recommend it enough.
Elliott Dupree
a year agoThis course is by far the best I've been on, this stuff should mandatory learning for everyone in our trade.
Graeme Munro
a year agoBig thanks to kimbo for the last 2 days. This course has been a true eye opener on how we can all be better.You explained everything in a clear concise manner which made it easy tonunderstand.

a year agoI’ve completed the Kimbo course - for the second time.!!Why a second you may ask- for me it was a chance to absorb some of the information I missed first time.Extremely valuable course and if you are considering doing it- don’t hesitate.
Steve Webster EGE Ltd
a year agoIf you only do one course it must be this one! Guaranteed to come away far more knowledgable. Kimbo takes a complex subject and presents it in a clear logical format.It’s not just another course, it’s an investment.
James Ashton
a year agoI’ve spent years in the industry and over time you learn new things and gradually think you know most things that there are to know. Kimbo’s course changed my mind on that and actually proved I was only scratching the surface. What you learn in 2 days is unbelievable, his approach and charisma makes the whole thing a brilliant experience. I would recommend and will be trying to arrange for all of our engineers to get on the course. Thank you again!
Jon Kitchen
a year agoI have done a few training courses recently, and by a country mile Kimbo’s Hydronics Course has been the best.I love the way it was done, a simplistic approach to the maths, processes and how and what things should be installed and why.He highlighted the facts where our industry is poor and how we can easily make a difference, saving everyone money and the planet.I am already a far better heating engineer than before, and have a clear focus on how I can get even better.There is a lot of information to digest and I would love to have another day or two.I hope this content finds itself on all apprenticeship courses soon, this stuff should be mandatory.It was delivered in a friendly dynamic environment where knowledge and experience is bounced about all over the place, Kimbo is highly knowledgeable and so enthusiastic and passionate. I’m sure he has forgotten things I don’t even know yet!I highly recommend this course.Thanks Kimbo.
Phil Morton
a year agoAbsolutely fantastic course, brilliantly put together. Kimbo has got a real passion for this and it really comes across. There’s a lot of information and all of it is insightful, digestible and can be put to use immediately.I couldn’t recommend this course highly enough, it should be taught as an industry standard but anyone will benefit from it and it will make you stand out from your competitors.Worth every penny and more! Thanks Kimbo.
Nick
a year agoThere's so much useful information to take your average understanding of heating systems to the next level as it should be, totally worth it.
Stephen Ayers
a year agoJust been on the hydronics course by Kimbo. I have learnt a fantastic amount in 2 days which will help me in better understanding the relationship between pipe sizes and lengths,resistance,presure losses. Having a better grasp of pump sizing and the effects of pump speed on heaing systems. PDHW,CCT,LLH,WC,OT,PI TRV'SKimbo is enthusiastic and is quite simply the main man to speak to...Like he says ""the maths don't lie"" simplified equations without 4 decimal places. The course Will make system fault finding easier and make me think twice about pipe sizing.If I could spend a week with him(training!!) Definitely would. I cannot recommend this course enough for experienced technicians who want to learn ways to make All systems more efficient.Thanks again Kimbo
Ashley Horn
a year agoThe Best 2 days training I have ever had in my 21 years in the industry.Kimbo is the most enthusiastic and passionate trainer I have ever seen. Amazing knowledge and great delivery. A lot to learn but I firmly believe the simplest way to understand and internalise. (I have completed other well know hydronic training at home through videos)It’s a long 2 days but I was still 100% focused at 5pm on day 2. Whereas most courses your struggling by 3 pm! Not this one!Well done and thank you Kimbo you are an asset to our industry.Ashley
Ashley Tapp
a year agoBrilliant course and a massive eye opener on doing things the best way and being more efficient. Kim I has simplified the maths chat. Which really helps and gives people who aren’t as academic as others a good chance of understanding it all. Very knowledgeable man is kimbo and the course is taught very well. There’s a lot to digest in two days, I would happily be there all week, giving more time to take it in but also go over more renewables. Personally I think they should be implementing this in to the future teaching of level 3 heating as it would help newly qualified plumbers the correct knowledge going forward for the future of heating systems and ASHP systems. Thank you again kimbo. Great course!
Paul Leedham
a year agoI originally had a discussion with Kimbo regarding the new heat pump Apprenticeship. It then followed that I booked on his course in Bristol and travelled from Sheffield. For the entire course I was engaged and interested on all subjects. No parts were too difficult and each part was progressively introduced with a gradual increase in difficulty to further knowledge on Hydronics. I have a background in installation and training myself and I found this course to be relevant, up to date and interesting. Everyone on the course was engaged, helped each other throughout the course, and we all left satisfied.I would unreservedly recommend this course to installers that want to further their knowledge on hydronics.
Sam Thomas
a year agoThe last couple of days learning and listening to Kimbo talk about heating in a way I’ve never heard or been taught. I would recommended this to anyone who’s ready to be blown away but also wants to make change in our industry. Worth every penny!
Lee Tidball-Zapp
a year agoWow. Tough topics taught with language you can understand.I'm sure Kimbo is the Messiah, and we are the apostles of the heating industry. I strongly advise you to attend the course, learn and pass it on to your colleages.. We have to spread the word.Previously an atheist, but now I believe in Kimbo.
David
a year agoExcellent couple of days with this extremely knowledgeable and passionate man. There is a lot to take in but worth it. Really helpful in how things can and should be done these days to make heating systems more efficient. I would recommend this course for every single heating engineer to help make our industry better. It’s also nice to meet someone with the same opinion on logics as me!
Mark Russell
a year agoExcellent course & worth every penny just for Kimbo’s entertaining teaching style. Would have liked the course to last longer as so much useful information to digest.
Alex Anderson
a year agoAbsolutely fantastic course made even better by the fact that it is delivered by someone as knowledgeable and passionate about the heating industry as Kimbo is. The way he is able to relay the information is what makes this the best course I've personally been on. Great to be surrounded by like-minded heating engineers sharing different opinions and knowledge. Worth every penny spent.
James Gerwat
a year agoAbsolute top notch course. Most important 2 days of your career.Kimbo's enthusiasm is infectious . His knowledge & more importantly his ability to share this know-how in a clear & memorable way, is second to none.This course is an absolute necessity if you strive to be the best.
Richard Carr
a year agoGreat course from start to finish , there is a lot to absorb over the two days but the way Kimbo gets the information across and encourages involvement in conversations is very helpful in achieving this ,This course is a must for anyone installing low temperature heating systems either with fossil fuel or renewable energy.
Tom Squires
a year agoBrilliant course. Mind blown. If you haven’t booked already get it done wish I had done it years ago.
Alex Mckechnie
a year agoKimbos course is an absoloute must for anyone who wants to expand their heating knowledge. He does warn you to “come with a clear head”! Although there is a lot of information to take in over the two days, kimbo delivers it in such a great way, he has everyone’s attention from the very beginning to the end. Unfortunately he’s retiring at the end of the year, so if you get a chance to, I’d highly recommend you book a place on his course asap!!
Josh
a year agoKimbo’s course is fantastic! The course is delivered in a simple yet engaging way by Kim who’s also a great laugh! It take the some what complicated aspects of low temperature heating and turns it in to a manageable and practical solution, easy to instantly include it in to your daily job. A true asset to the heating industry!
Gas Man Cornwall
a year agoA fantastic course & very well delivered! A real eye opener, even after 23 years in the industry. I strongly encourage everyone within the industry to attend this 2 day course - you will not regret it!
Neil
a year agoI’m so glad I did this course. Quality of teaching was superb. Relaxed atmosphere. Lots of information to digest in 2 days. If you think this is a typical course where you get thinned out by 4pm, then think again. 8-5:30. No pass or fail, just one guy passing on his knowledge of expertise. A reel must do if you want to be at the top of your game. Would highly recommend. Thanks Kimbo
James Hodgson
a year agoGreat course and well delivered, great information and insight to what we should all be trying to achieve, will definitely be recommending it to others thanks again Kimbo
Dave Todhunter
a year agoGreat course one I will probably remember for the rest of my life , Kimbo has his own very special presentation skills and brings what could be a complicated subject within the grasp of everyone .all heating engineers should attend this course .
Neil kiernan
a year agono one gets more than 9/10 because there is always room for improvement well this is an exemption from the way everything is explained from the reason in the first place a question asked to the dog with a bone way of finding the truth and using that information in a practical way kimbo is the man so 10/10 -5 stars it is.remember the truth is out there
Jake barnes
a year agoEasily the best course I’ve ever done. The knowledge and information you receive on the 2 days is unbelievable. I can’t recommend it enough. If you’re a heating engineer this is the best course with value for money you will undertake. Can’t recommend it highly enough.I will 100% be doing the course again in a few months time to confirm all I learnt and have put into practice is correct.
Steve Jordan
a year agoUnique course which sets out to equip heating engineers with all the knowledge and understanding required to properly design, install and most importantly commission systems correctly. If you genuinely want to give your customers a quality install and a system that runs efficiently find time to do this course.Thanks Kimbo
Richard
a year agoInformal but very informative. Kimbo simplifies complex information and delivers it in such a way that allows everyone to understand the technical side of things we deal with day in and day out. Highly recommend to anyone looking to raise their game as a heating engineer!
Jim Faulds
a year agoGreat couple of days, relentless download of information, some all new, some confirming what you’ve read before, some giving a new angle on what you thought you knew, all of it useful, most of it essential and all given over in a no nonsense, easy to grasp, simple to remember way- all plumbing learning should be like this- well done Kimbo, five stars!
Ben
a year agoGreat 2 days of learning in an environment where the students are able to all keep up with the material thanks to Kimbo keeping everyone engaged with the subject.One of the first training courses that kept me engaged for the full 2 days due to the delivery of the course although fast paced everyone involved could keep up thanks to the straight forward approach to delivering the subject matter made it easier to understandThanks again Kimbo really appreciated your time and help finding some answers and filling some gaps and giving me more confidence in future projects.
Plumb Tidy Ltd
a year agoI attempted this course with an open mind but sceptical to as how much I will learn and how it will benifit me. Kimbo has opened my mind to how things should be done with a bit of thought and planning my installs from now on will be a lot more environmentally friendly, cheaper for the customer to run and last longer. He has shone a light on technical specs of boilers and systems and not to be fooled by some of the all singing all dancing systems and appliances with bells and whistles that the marketing team want you to see. Going forward this course has benifited me and my future customers. Cheers Kimbo!
Marcus Bull
a year agoWhat can i say other than my brain was mashed but in a good and positive way,even though Kimbo was full of cold he put over a informative and constructive course i a humours way and made everyone feel welcome, it was definitely an eye openers to how we approach the whole heating industry and how much we all can improve our skills, fantastic course and would urge everyone to attend, thank again Kimbo
Todd Glister
a year agoI had heard extremely good things about this course from multiple people, and they really wasn’t wrong! I have learnt so much, and will continue to spread the word via my socials and on Fix Radio that every heating engineer should do this course. I thought i was doing an ok job of my own work until this course and now it’s changed everything! My approach to work will be different. Kimbo explains everything so well and in real world terms, A hydronics course can seem daunting but i promise you once you do this you will have the confidence to crack on and make yourself a better engineer. Considering for myself it was a couple of days off work, plus hotel and course fees i can safely say it’s some of the best money i’ve ever invested! Top Course and thanks again Kimbo!
Michael abbott
a year agoThis course opens your eyes up massively. I came on this course to touch on reasons why. I’ve ran into a few issues on some of my bigger installs lately and nobody had the answers. After two days with kimbo I’m not only confident I know how to resolve these issues but I have an understanding as to why they have happened. Thanks kimbo
Craig Richards
a year agoOne of the best courses I have ever done ! The amount of knowledge you gain from the course is amazing and kimbo explains it all brilliantly if you want to learn how to fit a boiler or heat pump the right way get on this course it will help you so much when it comes down to the hydronics side of things
Nick Bunyan
a year agoWish I'd found out about this course sooner. Enjoyed every minute of it. Kimbo imparts a huge amount of his hard-fought wisdom backed up with practical examples and golden reference material. No matter what your experience, you will not regret attending this course. Exceptional value for money too.
tony
a year agoJust finished the two day course with Kimbo and I cannot recommend highly enough, I have been in the industry for over forty years and this is a total eye opener. Kimbo presents concise information in an easy to understand manner and takes you to the next level, which is where we all need to be if you want to call yourself a heating engineer. The two day course is packed with information, there's no extended breaks and finishing early! you get your money's worth and Kimbo does a fantastic job of presenting advanced knowledge in a progressive and easy to understand manner. Thank you Kimbo for enlightening me and very grateful for the knowledge you share with us.
Ryan
a year agoGreat course very in depth, lots of information to learn,Highly recommend to all heating engineers you will learn a lot. 10/10
Arthur
a year agoAmazing. This two day course was exactly what I needed. So much great info in a simplified way! Thank you for the privilege to learn from you Kimbo! Highly recommend to all heating engineers who cares what they do! Thanks
Jack lee
a year agoI’ve learnt more in the past two days with kimbo than I have done my whole career, I highly recommend any heating engineer to sign up to this course and have their minds opened up to a completely different view on plumbing. Learning how to save time as an engineer, save the customer money and help save the planet? I don’t know what more you’d need in a course! Yes it’s a long day in a classroom and I’ve never been great in that situation but Kimbo kept it interesting and engaging throughout holding my attention for that long in itself deserves a 10/10 but the knowledge this guy shares is genuinely mind blowing. Thank you for your time and knowledge Kimbo can’t wait to put everything into practice! 10/10!!!!
Mike
a year agoWow!! I’ve learnt more about heating systems in two days with Kim then all of my combined months of training prior to this. I’m gas safe, unvented certified, ASHP accredited and nvq level 2 qualified in plumbing and heating! I never thought I’d not hate microbore! Thanks a bunch Kimbo!!
Elliott Marriott
a year agoExcellent course very in depth, lots of information to process over the 2 days but explained very well by kimbo.
Rob
a year agoI came on this course as I’ve heard it’s the best one, and it didn’t disappoint. Kimbo gets his point across so well and gives you all the help you need in a well produced A4 booklet.I’ve done the heat geek course online and though I enjoyed that very much I think I’ve come away from Kimbo’s course with more tools to use to get my heating design as efficient as possible.Highly recommend this to anyone who dares to call themself a heating engineer. Thanks Kimbo
Michael Abraham
a year agoHaving recently been on kimbos course i can honestly say it was brilliant.Lots of information to digest in 2 days but put across perfectly in kimbos way. I highly recommend this to help further your knowledge on heating design, it certainly changed the way im looking at systems now.
Danny Morris
a year agoGreat 2 days, could easily be 3. Learned loads. Everyone needs to do this course to bring the industry out of the dark ages. Thanks Kimbo
Blake
a year agoThis course is very in-depth and you will learn a lot about the heating industry- from old wife’s tales to the correct way of doing things.Kimble breaks it down into simple terms, although you still need to be switched on and absorb it all in, it’s explained in a manner that you won’t disengage.Would highly recommend this course if your looking to further your knowledgeCheers kimbo
Steve Cole
a year agoMind blown, great teaching with great content. I would recommend it not just for heating engineers but for anyone working in the retrofit world.
Austin
a year agoBrilliant course, kimbos enthusiasm is infectious, highly recommend toHeating engineers that want to improve their knowledgeOf low temp heating systems
James Bexter
a year agoThis is a great course that simplifies the science associated with hydronics. Kimbo is a great teacher and the class atmosphere is pretty relaxed. You’re never made to feel daft about asking any questions and Kimbo does stop periodically to make sure everyone’s keeping up which I thought was great. There’s a course book that comes with the training that is also really helpful as a point of reference as there’s a lot to take in. I found this course much more beneficial than previous online courses that I’d tried as you can actually ask questions as you go and not try and sift through various forums set up by a course to try and find an answer.
Thomas Neill
a year agoVery happy with the 2 day Hydronics course I just completed. A must do course if you are looking to improve your knowledge on heating system design. Kimbo has great way of teaching, there is a lot to take in but everything was explained so well. A great atmosphere amongst the class and the course was fun. I highly recommend. I hope to see you again in the future. Thanks Kimbo.
James Mullen
a year agoFantastic course. I'm a retrofit coordinator rather than a heating engineer and I still gained a lot of useful knowledge and understanding from the course. Very accessible but also scary how the wider industry is so poor!
Mehdi
a year agoI was attending at 2 days course of mr kimbo and it was really grateWonderful person with amazing knowledge he was very helpfull snd was talkink about everything non stopAll i can say thank you for all you didfor us
Craig Brookes
a year agoFantastic course and something i recommend to all heating engineers who want to improve the efficiency of their systems.I love Kims enthusiasm and this is the best training course currently available!
Graeme
a year agoJust completed the 2 day Hydronics course with Kimbo, what a font of knowledge. I would recommend every engineer attend this. Well presented and enjoyable, gets things over without overly complicating things, Kimbo keeps you entertained whilst cramming information into your brain.
Chris
a year agoMy mind has been blown. I never claimed to be an expert at what I do, but sitting with Kimbo for two days has really made me question what I’ve been doing all these years!The course was broken down into easy to understand chunks, taught by someone who’s seen it and done it. Kimbo has the patience of a saint, and didn’t hesitate to humour multiple questions from a simple pipe strangler like me.Get yourself on this course, you won’t regret it
Dave Fitzgerald
a year agoIt’s been a year for me of upping my game. Leaning new skills and finally understanding our systems. Kimbo you’re a star delivering this course as if you wrote it yourself haha. Plan English now bill no sales wouldn’t think twice about doing it again
Josh
a year agoKimbo’s course is fantastic! The course is delivered in a simple yet engaging way by Kim who’s also a great laugh! It take the some what complicated aspects of low temperature heating and turns it in to a manageable and practical solution, easy to instantly include it in to your daily job. A true asset to the heating industry!
Mario Ntiso
a year agoKimbo has made an outstanding course which is easy to understand and put to practice. Best course in the UK so far.
James Bell-Taylor
a year agoOutstanding course! Kimbo is brilliant in his delivery. The course allows you to learn the processes through the working examples and through group discussion. I can’t recommend it enough. Unbelievable value for money and you go away armed with the knowledge and skills to put the information into action
John wood
a year agoJohn wood plumbing Heating & RenewablesThis course is well-structured and covers a wide range of topics in a comprehensive informative yet simple way. Kimbo is able to explain complex concepts in a clear and concise manner. The course handouts are also excellent, and they provide a valuable reference guide.One of the things that makes this course so valuable is that it covers both the theoretical and practical aspects of hydronics system design and installation. Attendees learn about the principles of hydronics, as well as how to select and size pumps, pipes, and other components. They also learn about the importance of flow velocity and pressure drop, and how to design and install LLH and ccT systems.Another great part is that he explains how to correctly balance and commission heating systems. This is an essential skill for any heating engineer, as it ensures that the system operates efficiently and reliably.Overall, the Kimbo Heating Academy course on pump sizing, pipe sizing, flow velocity, separation (LLH & ccT's), how they work, and when to use them is an excellent resource for heating engineers of all levels of experience. I highly recommended it for anyone who wants to improve their skills and knowledge on wet heating systems. Flow is King!!
Neil Rhucroft Heating Services Ltd
a year agoIf you're looking to learn about heating system design. Look no further. Kimbo teaches it in a way that everyone can understand. I learnt way more on this course than another more expensive course, which I won't name . He's even got a great sense of humour. I could have spent a week learning about it. It was that enjoyable.
Andy Noad
a year agoWhat a fantastic two day course delivered by Kimbo.Best training I have done by a long way. Would highly recommended to anyone looking to improve their knowledge.
Dean - Avail Heating
a year agoA fantastic course for anyone wanting to raise the bar in the industry. A fairly intense 2 days of soaking up knowledge and information, however the way Kimbo presents is engaging throughout, as well as being in a simple enough format for it all to be taken in without too much head scratching. Come with the intention of learning and you’ll leave confident enough to tackle any heating system.Cheers KimboFlow is King!
Revel Gas Services
a year agoThis is the 2nd time I have attended Kimbos course(that says a lot in itself), the first time was 4yrs ago and it started me off on a path of personal learning and improvement. It was great to do it against and refresh some of the points and help me realise I'm already doing better than I was 4yrs ago. I can't recommend doing this course enough, yes it's a lot to take in but it's very rewarding. Thanks Kimbo.
JamesL
a year agoI had been recommended this course by other engineers whilst on a gas course. Having spent the last few months exploring renewable energy options - I felt my knowledge wasn’t quite there and was looking for something other than ‘manufacturers’ courses.This course was the ideal solution and not specific to renewables- in fact I now have the knowledge to design really efficient systems for gas boilers.Now spread the word …one plumber at a time
Antanas Mastaras
2 years agoThis was the only course in my last 25 years, where I managed not to fall a sleep. Perfectly executed by Kimbo. Despite being quite intense, there was still enough time for us to engage in debates with same minded people. As many others said, this is exactly what the rotten to core heating industry needs.Massive thanks and respect to Kimbo!
Ben Beuzeval
2 years agoAn incredibly informative course that is an absolute must for any forward thinking heating engineer. I particularly enjoyed the way Kimbo presented it. He personifies the heating system and its components making complicated topics easy to digest. At times it felt like I was going on a journey through the pipes of the heating system, thoroughly enjoyable. You come away with a solid understanding of real world ways to make a difference. It’s a movement and we’re all part of it. Thanks Kimbo.
Dexter Ross-Nichol
2 years agoGreat course, which has been excellently structured with loads of information. Everything is translated into simple terms so it is easy to take in. Kimbo is a real credit to the industry! keep up the good work and thank you!
Mark Cunningham
2 years agoKimbo simplified everything which made the information easier to digest, course workbook is now my go to guide, having done the Heat Geek course, which I would recommend, there was a lot that I was unsure about until I attended Kimbo, heating industry needs people like him, I came away knowing a lot more and feeling more confident generally, thanks again Kim
Tim East
2 years agoA really enjoyable few days of no- nonsense learning, thank you Kimbo
Liam Dack
2 years agoBest course I have been on since my apprenticeship. Recommend to anyone and everyone, I believe this course should be made compulsory to anyone wanting to be a heating engineer/ gas safe. Kimbo is a fantastic guy and is on a one man mission to change the industry. I for one am right behind him.
Steve G
2 years agoKimbo firstly thanks for giving us your timeI was a bit apprehensive to attend but once the first coffees were out the way and Kimbo got into his flow I was impressed and soon realised I needed to listen and absorb all I could.I’ve done all my necessary courses Bpec Heat Pump rubbish and manufacturers courses. And obviously the normal Gas Safe OFTEC ones that we need to do. But found Kimbos one of the most informative. I’ll be honest be prepared to be able to keep up with Kimbo. But the man has a lot to get across. So it was great to be taught in a manner we can understand better. Thoroughly enjoyed it and would have attended a 3 day course if it was an option. My folder I got to take away is now sitting by my side so I can refer to it as needed.Keep doing what you’re doing Kimbo the industry is all the better for having you giving back.
Mark Hall
2 years agoAdvanced heating theory, principles and practical techniques delivered in straight talking and relaxed way. An absolute must do course for all heating professionals.
Greg
2 years agoAmazing couple of days taking in new info and refreshing old info. Kimbo delivers the info in a clear way that gets you thinking and builds your confidence for designing efficient systems that will work whether it’s a boiler swap or complete new system. Kimbo makes you feel at ease and obviously so passionate about helping people learn. Fully recommend to anyone.
Chris Roberts
2 years agoThis is 5he best training I've come across and gives allot of power and ability of demistifying the smoke and mirrors of heating system engineering. All this taught by an absolute master in communicated distilled down key information in a clear and concise way. Thank you Kimbo!
Murtaza
2 years agoKimbos course is outstanding, offering a clear way to simplify complex subjects. Whether you're an installer or work in maintenance, this course is essential, thanks to Kimbo's knack for simplifying intricate systems. It significantly boosted my knowledge of system design and the correct installation methods. I'm truly grateful for the enjoyable training experience
Struan Miller
2 years agoTwo incredibly beneficial days learning from Kimbo, and I now know what I didn’t know. Kimbo does a great job at delivering the information in simple terms and takes the guessing out of heating systems so we can make our decisions on facts. Will recommend to everyone !Cheers Kimbo
Craig
2 years agoThis course was absolutely brilliant from start to finish. Would recommend it to everyone in the industry to go on. Really clear and concise delivery.
James Delaney
2 years agoThis course is a must for anyone in the heating industry no matter how experienced you are. This will open your eyes to how systems should be designed and set up to maximise efficiency. Kimbo really knows his stuff and presents it in a very relaxed format.
Petros anastasiou
2 years agoWithout a doubt one of the best courses i have been on.Defiantly recommended if you want to know how to plan and run systems efficiently . Thank you Kimbo for your time and knowledge
Jon Garvey
2 years agoAny heating engineers looking to push on and really learn about heating systems this is the course for you. Everything was made so easy to understand and credit to kimbo for coming up with a system to teach so much in only two days. By far the best course I’ve been on.I couldn’t recommend enough
Tom Steatham
2 years agoI had been very disappointed with the previous courses undertaken regarding energy efficiency and low temperature heating systems through Bpec.I researched Northampton Heating Academy, after coming across his twitter page. Thank god I did!This course is basic and raw in the most positive way possible. All information on the PowerPoint / handouts are all informative with no fuffler. The days are long with minimum breaks but what I have learnt in the space of two days, would have previously been a six week course.I can't thank Kimbo enough for his time and effort he puts into his classes! He goes above and beyond to help promote better practices from each of us heating engineers, while promoting thinking for ourselves and not to be blinded by brands and warrantiesCheers Kimbo.
DanTheGas
2 years agoWell done Kimbo. Well put together and presented. The knowledge passed on should be the standard, not an optional extra for those looking to do better. If you care about this industry, this is probably the best value for money course available.
Peter Mayne
2 years agoA lot of information to take in, but delivered well.
Hedd Hughes-Gage
2 years agoAmazing couple of days with Kimbo, a real eye opener in domestic hydronics. This course is a must Kimbo packs an incredible amount of information that I will now apply to all my installations.Thanks
Rhys Gravelle
2 years agoUndoubtedly two days of invaluable investment to further your knowledge and understanding of the heating industry. A real eye opener and you will leave armed with the practical knowledge and ability to improve your game and make your installs the best they could be. Could not recommend this more. Kimbo is an absolute legend! Thanks mate
Shane Churcher
2 years agoWithout a doubt one of the most honest, informative courses I’ve done in years. Technical stuff told in layman’s terms, without any airs or graces.This course is a must for installer’s to measure where they are in the industry….and a MUST for the direction the industry is going.
Owen Coghlan
2 years agoCourse was recommended to me by another plumber and thank god I listened to him. Kimbo is delivering a course that should be compulsory for all heating engineers, especially now with low temp systems and heat pumps. Really impressed by the vast amount of information that is in this course. Keep up the good work Kimbo.
Mateusz Pawelek
2 years agoWell its 2nd time I've went trough that course as needed refresher. It eye opener. Allowed you to look at system from different angle, new approach to design large complex system can be simplified. Thank you
Warren G
2 years agoFantastic course with lots of real world examples delivered by Kimbo in a very enjoyable format. Cant recommend enough thank you Kimbo.
Tim Broughton
2 years agoA real light bulb moment. All the course is in plain simple language. Makes you realise how we have been doing installs well, but not as good as we could be. Now i understand so much more, things ive done without thinking really, that i now look at in a different light. Ive been in the industry for 18 years, every day is a school day. Thank you Kimbo!
Craig Palmer
2 years agoThis course should be compulsory for all heating engineers. Myself and one of our engineers attended this week and it was a real eye opener. Kimbo is a top bloke who cracks on to make sure you get as much info as possible over the two days, but will always stop and take the time to explain further if anyone is struggling. A relaxed learning environment with a great teacher to learn from. Thank you Kimbo!
Roger Parkinson
2 years agoWell every day is a learning day as they say, but Monday & Tuesday this week were Enlightened. I decided to plump for a couple of days training which came with no formal qualifications, however I have to say I have learnt more in those two days than I have in my last (ahem) 35+ years in this industry. I have to thankKimbo Bettyfor an engaging & humorous delivery of material which should be the foundation of all heating engineers,plumbers,gas engineers & renewable engineers every day education. Can't thank you enough and will take all the new found info rattling round in my head into my everyday work life.
Liam
2 years agoI couldn’t recommend this course enough!! I would encourage any heating engineer to do the course, it’s 2 days of useful information which I can’t wait to put into practice. Kimbo is such knowledgeable bloke.

2 years agoI attended the hydronics course in Burnley. I Cannot recommend Kimbo’s course enough!I feel like I’ve seen the light!The course is packed with information I feel like I’ve learnt a hell of a lot in just 2 days. Going forward I shall never look at another job the same way.Kimbo managed to cram a hell of a lot of information in the course but it’s delivered in an easy to understand and extremely entertaining way. If you’re thinking about this course just go for it. It’s worth every penny!
Gavin
2 years agoDEFINITELY a must do course!! Especially now, more than ever the way the industry is going. A full on 2 days and my head literally hurts but worth every second. Don’t think I’ll ever be the guy with the long forehead, or the guy with the really long forehead but it’s given me the foundation to push on and really understand what we as heating engineers need to be doing and give our customers the best possible systems we can.Thanks again Kimbo, all the best.
Sune Nightingale
2 years agoIt was a great pleasure, as well as his excellent and thorough teaching of hydronics, to also experience Kimbo's open attitude to issues around men's physical and mental health, which was a brilliant example, and invitation, to the those participating to normalise those topics of conversation. V impressed in many ways
Dawn Parnell
2 years agoAnyone can “talk through” a course but Kimbo is passionate about what he does and therefore delivers a course which is informative and delivers knowledge on another level. For those who haven’t been on his Hydronics Course, you’re missing out! This man is a Legend and has a wealth of knowledge to share.
Simon Lockwood
2 years agoI used to replace boilers and upgrade installations?I followed Kimbo Betty and Rob Berridge and was intrigued because as mentioned above I replaced boilers. Following my enrolment on both courses I now have a more fundamental understanding of hydronically separating installations using the heat academy and are getting involved on a day to day basis of being a better heat engineer. I don’t want to dismiss heat geek but for value for money. Using the Academy to be a BETTER Heat Engineer is a No Brainier. Knowledge is Key to being whom you want to be tomorrow.
Jack Robinson
2 years agoFantastic course that you come out if more knowledgeable than you went in. Kimbo was great. Thanks kimbo

After attending this course you will never leave pumps on setting 3 again and be able to work out flow rates and circuit resistance with ease. A must course for any installer who wishes to take pride in their installations.
Martin - Firepower
2 years agoWhat a course and so well delivered by Kimbo with passion and humour. This is a real must for all heating engineers, if you want to get the most out of a heating system, attend this course!
niall walsh engineering
2 years agoi came over from Ireland to do this course it has been the best course i have ever attendedit is amazing how much you can learn in two daysKimbo makes the course very enjoyable with his organisation and humourthe course is a must do for anyone in the heating industrythe course notes makes designing systems easythanks Kimbo
David Elston
2 years agoThe best training course i have attended. I believe this is a must for ALL heating engineers and plumbers who wish to further their knowledge and gain understanding of system hydronics. Full of easily understood methods of calculation and easy on site references. The knowledge gained from this course is invaluable.
Louis
2 years agoPacked full of really useful information, Kimbo was amazing, really friendly and really knew his stuff, couldn’t recommend enough!!
Jamie Bennett
2 years agoInvaluable course to undertake, it is a real eye opener. Kimbo explains things in an easy to understand way and keeps everyone engaged. System design, flow calc's, pressure drops and separation are just a few topics that are covered. No more S plans...... ;) Would recommend anyone who wants to further their understanding of hydronics to undertake Kimbo's course, you will not regret it.
Sean Keleher
2 years agoWhat a brilliant course. This is a course everyone should get on to.The course highlights where hydronics is key now for some jobs you get involved with where the system is not working as it should, but more importantly the future understanding of the need to know more about system hydronics. It will show how important pipe sizes and rads are with low temperature systems and retrofitting a heat pump onto an existing system. You will understand how to calculate a system design with different delta T’s, hydronic separation and why a system or heat pump is not working to the efficiencies it should do, where it is down to the hydronics of the system. A very intense two days full of practical examples to go though.I would highly recommend this course.Well done Kimbo.
Saffron Heating
2 years agoWell what can I say ? It's the best course I have done .I do many installation and repairs so I didn't expected to learn much. But after day 2 I have realised that I have to go long way.... Kimbo has shown to us the best practices for installation , design and more Very useful information that I simply Didn't know... After those 2days with Kimbo I have learned very much important information like sizing pipe work and boilers properly, hydrolic separation ,heat pumps and more.... Already talking to my colleagues to attend that training. Thank you Kimbo -you are Good Old school engineer with very useful practical skills... We should all be doing work properly after that knowledge....
George Tiefenthaler
2 years agoA must do course for all involved in the heating industry. The content is delivered in an easy to follow, understandable and engaging way. Kimbo is great and his enthusiasm and knowledge is infectious. The course handbook and literature is worth a hundred times the course fee!! It was a refreshing change to spend time with other interested and engaged engineers and the two days flew by.
Darrell
2 years agoReal eye opener. Great bloke. Great course.
Icy Hot Ltd
2 years agoMost excellent. Down to earth, informative in ways I didn't even know I needed to know. I have completed all the Heat Geek courses and learnt additional information here along with faster and simpler ways of carrying out calculations, learnt even more about pumps and hydronic separation. The boost in confidence the course has given me is very much appreciated! For the price...why wouldn't you expand your toolkit? Just do the course. You'll make the money back on the first job you do to undo OPS!
John
2 years agoGreat course delivered on point. This is a good course on hydronics and gives you what you need to put it into use in real-world situations. A must do course when working in our ever changing industry. Cheers Kimbo and get well soon.

Sara
2 years agoWhat an eye-opener!Finally understood properly how it all works.Great way of dividing the course with PowerPoints, discussions and tasks in the workbook.Engaging at all times. Would highly recommend!
Josh Paton
2 years agoWhat a guy! Kimbo really knows his stuff! Can’t believe how much I didn’t know regarding system hydronics, really given me the inspiration to carry out my work as efficiently as possible. Knowledge is power and kimbo is giving the industry the knowledge everybody should have!Can’t wait to see what other courses he’s offering.
Steve Martin
2 years agoFantastic course, can see why it takes two days !Made the dark science of hydronics relatable to our day jobsDone in a brilliant easy to understand wayNeed to get this out there as quick as possible before our industry implodes
Sam Dennis
2 years agoWhat a great course!. Kimbo has got this down to a tee. His knowledge and enthusiasum for the heating industry is second to none. Would highly recommend this course to all.
Darren Stone
2 years agoWhat a great course. Kimbo certainly gave us as much knowledge as he could within the time we had to take it all in. Its great to have someone like Kimbo thats enthusiastic to teach others who are keen to improve the way they install their heating systems.Learnt so much within the two days, to be able to apply it on all my work going forward.I now know why you dont get much time for breaks as there is so much to get through.Thanks Kimbo
Jay Bourne
2 years agoFirstly Kimbo has to be one of the most knowledgeable engineers I have come across, his knowledge and wisdom is second to none when it come to hydronics.If you strive to know more, be better and want to understand how plumbing should be done, do yourself a favour and book on this course.I can guarantee you will have a completely different mindset when you finish!Kimbo thankyou!
Alex
2 years agoBeware, this course is not for the faint of heart!If you're easily offended, or if you don't like change. Then this isnt for you.However for the rest of us, this course is literally the best course i have ever done. You wont regret doing it.How can i call myself a heating engineer before doing this course?Kimbo takes the science that is heating and presents it in such a clever way that we can understand and use imediately in our day to day working life.I would reccomend doing the heat geek awakening course first, or doing kimbos course twice. Otherwise you'll never take everything in first time round.Hopefully if enough engineers learn this stuff we can change the industry for the better.Thanx kimbo :)
Paul Milford
2 years agoThe course was excellent, with loads of valuable information, this was my second time I attended and all the information sunk in a lot quicker. Kimbo explains everything in a great way.Highly recommended!!
Scott
2 years agoBe prepared for a barrage of everything hydronics, for heating and domestic hot water. I recommend a couple good night's sleep and don't expect to be sliding off for early finishes. Kimbo has a wealth of knowledge and delivers the course in a very digestible way. He offers a thorough breakdown of how best to achieve efficient systems, and makes you question why we are still doing things 'the way it's always been done'. 5 * from me.Thanks again Kimbo
Gary March
2 years agoKimbo this course was next levelI am writing this review to express my gratitude for the invaluable learning experience I gained from attending your hydronic heating course. The course was structured exceptionally well,the content was organizedKimbos knowledge on the topic was exceptional and highly impressive. Highly informative and engaging.Overall, the course exceeded my expectations in terms of content, engagement, I would highly recommend this course to anyone interested in hydronic heating or anyone looking to expand their knowledge in this field.Once again, thank you for providing an incredible learning experience.Gary
Steve Gill
2 years agoSo glad I attended this course. It is well structured and helps you understand the principles of good heating design and for me, it highlighted things I can do to further to improve efficiencies of even the simplest of boiler installs. Although the course was about hydronic separation, there is so much more to gain by realising that the “principles” we are taught when entering the heating industry are not entirely accurate. Another positive element for me was finding out about products that are now available, how they work and when they would be used. This wasn’t a sales trick but an insight into real products that will make a real improvement to our installs. I would highly recommend this course and Kimbo is a great, down to earth tutor.
Ronan
2 years agoBrilliant course.Love Kimbos passion for what he teaches along with his humour.Kimbos lessons are easy to follow and full of valuable knowledge.I’d say the course is hands down the best course I’ve been on.
Trevelyan Oates-White
2 years agoTop quality course delivered from a top quality bloke. Since taking this course its made me question every installation ive ever done. A lot of information delivered in a easy to understand format. This is the information every heating engineer in the country needs to know.
Ben Blyth
2 years agoAbsolutely superb training. Kimbo is one of the leading engineers in the industry and the realistic hope for a better trained, more informed and higher performing set of engineers. If you want to advance in the industry and actually understand how systems work, should work and why they don't, it's a must to go on the course. This isn't a manufacturers ""training"" course. Brilliant training, great to meet you Kimbo.
Shane Kosic
2 years agoDone some other big name training courses out thereKimbos course really cemented home the reasons why it needs to be done and how to apply on site,Very glad to have detailed pump section on the course, as I felt this was my weak point and what other courses lacked,Was really good to learn what happens if we don’t implement these things into our work when it before we are on site, rather than just how to do them.I genuinely feel that this course was finally the hand to turn the key in my mind on system design, and feel I now finally fully understand system design & why it should be done properly.Hats off to KimboThanks
Darrell Relton
2 years agoGrrat course, hope i can do it justice and apply it, Kimbo made it easy to be able to for those on the front line
Anthony sanders
2 years agoI turned up to the class thinking i would learn a thing or two and by the end of the two days realised there was another way to do things, a way to design and install better heating systems and do more for our customers, it was humbling and exciting, i left with a real urge to be a better engineer and question the beliefs of “this is how we’ve always do it” ….no more, its now, “this is now how we do it right” cheers Kimbo and team
Chris Brooks
2 years agoThe hydronic’s course that kimbo offers is easy to digest and is really useful in every day scenarios that I encounter. Kimbo has not only made me think differently about heating systems but has also changed the way I would normally install boilers and heating systems . IfYou want to become a better engineer this is where you start . Kimbo thank you very much for opening my eyes and my mind!
Craig
2 years agoSuperb course, full of really useful information which is explained in an easy to understand way by Kimbo. Would strongly recommend it to any Plumbers/Heating Engineers who want to improve there knowledge and understanding of heating systems.

2 years agoSo I wasn’t going to leave a review as I and doubted my ability to get across how worthwhile this course is but maybe that sums it up? Packed with info to make you a better engineer.
Kieran Ross
2 years agoA great 2 day of learning how poor the industry has been for so long and how we can do better,Kimbo is so knowledgable, dont hesitate on going on this course at the next opportunity
Richard
2 years agoFantastic course! Learned so much in just 2 days. Kimbos passion and commitment to passing on his knowledge is second to none. I would have quite happily sat for another 2 days listening and learning from Kimbo. Would highly recommend this course expertly delivered and plenty of laughs along the way!
Mat Taylor
2 years agoGreat two day hydronics delivered by kimbo. Very informative and set at a good pace to make sure everyone is up to speed, friendly atmosphere too. Would highly recommend.
Tim Mycroft
2 years agoI'd been trying to get onto this course for maybe a year but kept missing out but when I eventually managed to get on the course it did not disappoint. Kimbo is a really brilliant teacher, really suited my learning style and you get fantastic handouts. I'd already been doing elements of his recommendations (weather comp, PDHW) for years but never fully understood the theory behind it and now feel so much more confident selling it in and seeing where I can further tweak systems for maximum efficiency. The trick now is having the time to put this fully into practice. I cannot recommend Kimbo's course highly enough, whatever level you are at, you will learn something, just book it!
James
2 years agoGreat course. Loads of information. Booklet you are given is a great idea. Has all the course covered in it and you can you use it on site to help yourself if you are struggling on things.Would def recommend to anyone doing systems/larger systems to learn/refresh your memory about the pipe sizing and CCT and LLH etc.
Paul Paton (The Boiler Doctor Ltd) ATAG Technical Consultant
2 years agoThis Coarse Should be compulsory for All Heating Professionals we have never had such a crisis in our industry we all Need to understand how and why we MUST STOP wasting Energy Low Temperature systems are the future so there’s no room for Guesstimates anymore nobody builds a house without plans ? So why install a system that hasn’t been planned or designed for the specific needs of the building & customer. .Kimbo is a talented experienced Engineer he is passionate about our trade and is committed to genuinely helping engineers to develop their skills to be able to stand out from the crowd
Terry Frame
2 years agoI highly recommend Kimbo's course, he is a top fella. The course is well-structured and and very informative. I have spent thousands over the years on training and have always walked away unsatisfied but when I finished Kimbos course, my mind was overflowing with information.It has given me the confidence to take my career to the next level.
David Henry
2 years agoGreat course definitely a must if your one of those people that needs more understanding on how to set up heating systems correctly especially with the price of energy. no tests and stuff like that just kimbo passing on his knowledge he felt was missing and went out and put all the dots together. Lots to take in but worth it for what you will get out of it in my opinion. Kimbo got the passion and it shows
Maciej
2 years agoKimbo makes the knowledge understanble. Its all about understanding what you are doing and why, instead of being told it needs to be done that way. This is the only training that I'd be happy to do again.
Brett Barker
2 years agoOutstanding course. Every heating engine should attend this course. Kimbo is a top guy and really cares about getting system design right and that comes across in the way he teaches it. Highly recommended
Eccles Heating Services

James Flemington
2 years agoKimbos hydronics course is an absolute “must do” for any installer who wants to deliver top notch engineering. No more guess work, or best guess installs. Kimbo delivers a very practical, real life, nuts and bolts course.Well worth the money. Set at a good pace. There’s a handy booklet and reference material too.Kimbo is a genuinely friendly and passionate guy…and as such the course was a pleasure to take.
Daniel
2 years agoKimbo is an asset to the industry. There is no other course like it, i learned so much in just two day's. The course should be part of the current apprenticeship scheme. I would highly recommed any heating engineer to attend.Thanks kimbo.
Dave Buckingham
2 years agoThis is the best course I’ve done in a long timeKimbo has a way of teaching that keeps everyoneengaged . If you have done the heat geek coursethis brings it all together in a much better way .A very enjoyable 2 days highly recommended.Thanks Kimbo really appreciated .

2 years agoAmazing 2 days of proper learning. Like kimbo says its a room full of people who want to be there so 2 days of no nonsense learning. If you dont know it before you will after.
Adrian Snell
2 years agoAfter heating so much positive feedback I booked the course and wasn’t disappointed as it was really informative and Kimbo has the ability to make it all very digestible. Knowledge is power and I’m extremely pleased with everything I have learned. Top guy and I would highly recommend it.
Sam Jones
2 years agoThe most value for money training any heating engineer can do! I mean this honestly, you’ll have so many light bulb moments that will tie your entire career together. Kimbo will explain things in a no nonsense manner that make learning in this great atmosphere so fun. Don’t get me wrong, you’re still sitting down to listen to someone speak, but every moment was worth it!It was a pleasure to finally meet you Kim, after all the times you’ve personally assisted me on site. You are a true gent and a valuable member of our industry
Simon Lockwood
2 years agoWatt is a Joule per Second. You may understand the equation but the need to learn about temperature and moving it is in my view what this course can facilitate. The two day course will open your mind and fill in the blanks, Kimbo’s aptitude and the way he delivers this course is truly inspiring and will open a whole different Avenue in your mind and assist you in the future.
Neil Bradshaw
2 years agoA great couple of days with Kimbo learning new things and from others on the course! Highly recommend it to anyone looking to up their game!
Dean. D.A.S Heating
2 years agoGreat course can’t recommend enough lots of helpful information over two days for a very small fee . From pipe sizing , low loss headers to sizing pumps correctly your be amazed what you learn. Very enjoyable 2days
Paul Dixon
2 years agoWhat a great course, I can’t believe Kimbo packed so much in in the two days. I will have to go away and go over my notes before I forget anything. If you haven’t been on this course you need to book asap. The best course I have been on and learnt so much.
Jason JPG Heating
2 years agoWow!!! Has to be the best plumbing course I have ever been on. Learnt so much in just 2 days. Crazy the way we have been lead to believe this is how things are done. This course really opens your eyes to what we should all be doing.Kimbo's passion for the industry & helping us to achieve savings for customers & the environment is second to none.Really recommend the course !!
Brian
2 years agoBrilliant learning experience, I can honestly say this is the most I’ve learnt about the technical side of domestic heating since I was an apprentice in the early 80’s.Thanks Kimbo, I feel enlightened . . . . .
Cliff Arnold
2 years agoThis is a great course to attend. Kimbo has created a great way to enhance knowledge of heating engineers with a simplified explanation of how heating systems should be sized and designed. Proving a useful reference guide for continuous learning. I encourage all engineers to attend this course and heighten your personal abilities and elevate your business capability. We hope to work closer with heat academy to help our customers gain the valuable insights provided by this course. Thank you!
Nev
2 years agoThis is a really great course, if you have done or are thinking about doing Heat Geek then this covers a lot of the same stuff but in a much more comprehensible way, I think both courses complement each other really well.It's a lot to take in over two days but Kimbos's presentation and delivery are excellent making it much more fun & entertaining than this sort of thing would usually be. His pipe & pump sizing method is also much simpler than Heat Geeks & you get a handy on-site reference booklet to take away from the course which is really useful.
Ian Morgan
2 years agoThis course is a game changer, have always know about all the calculations you should be carrying out but have never been able to get my head around them. Kimbo has done all the hard work for you and provided a booklet that is a bible of information that has been broken down to a very useable guide. One man on a mission to change the heating industry. He’s a legend. Don’t hesitate! Book the course immediately, you will be a better engineer the day you step out of his classroom.
Jack Ellis
2 years agoBrilliant course! Learnt a lot and look forward to putting it into practise! Thanks!
Lucus
2 years agoWhat a great course, Kimbo explains everything in an easy to understand language, he explains what everyone has been doing wrong for years and why and how to do it right.Spot on cheers Kimbo
Daniel
2 years agoRecently completed the two day course with Kimbo. Hands down the best course I have done to date, with clear explanations of the maths involved.Kimbo wasted no time, no trash talk , only useful information and knowledge shared.It’s a pretty full on two days (we were warned) , packed with real life scenarios and problems.included in the course fee was a useful book of information and tables that I will definitely find useful on site.Luckily the class was full of like minded people, this made the learning process far easier.Will highly recommend your course and thanks again for sharing your knowledge
Dan Bucknall
2 years agoIf you are taking the time to read these reviews then you have already taken the first step toward wanting to be a better engineer. I was once in your shoes and reading these reviews and decided to take the plunge.This course is absolutely spot on. Kimbo’s enthusiasm and passion for change in our industry is what attracted me to taking this course.There are far too many cowboys and combi slingers in our profession who call themselves engineers, set yourself apart from them and get booked on the course.The content is excellent and the way which it is delivered is simplified that most people will understand.It is a solid 2 days of learning but that’s what we want rather than waiting around twiddling your thumbs with endless breaks and lunches.After doing the course you really will see where we’ve all been going wrong in the past and will be capable to deliver better and more cost affective heating systems to your customers.Worth every penny and more!!
Paul , PG Plumbing
2 years agoThis is an awesome bit of insight to why we all have been doing things wrong for yrs !! This is the stuff that needs to be taught at college so that all the new apprentice coming through do stuff how it should be done !Kimbo has a way of getting it into you without sitting there feeling like you are being lecturedIt’s great stuff to now move and put into practice on jobsTop man Kimbo
Kye
2 years agoI attended this course in Lincoln and Kimbo was absolutely fantastic. His method of teaching and his passion towards the heating industry was great. There was so much information to absorb and hardly any breaks, which was good because we are there to learn and gain as much as we can from the course. I really enjoyed it and would recommend this to anyone who wishes to gain more knowledge in the heating industry.
Matt Rigby
2 years agoBrilliant course. It made my head hurt at times. But really learnt alot. Thanks again Kimbo. Top man
Edward Francis
2 years agoGreat course relaxed atmosphere lots to learn love the calcs made easy with the kimbo method would recommend to anyone wanting gain some good knowledge
Aaron Drayton
2 years agoHaving done Kimbo’s 2 day separation/pump speed/heat pump course I can honestly say it was worth every penny! Having been in the industry for 20 years and owner of a business employing staff I still come away learning a hell of a lot!Highly recommend to anyone wanting to better their knowledge in the industry.
Lee pearce
2 years agoWow !! What an eye-opening, humbling experience. Ive been in this industry for over 27 years and learned more about system design and more importantly how bad it actually is in this country in these 2 days than i could imagine. Thankyou Kimbo for an informative and interesting course, would say this is an essential for any heating engineers no matter how old and especially those new to the industry...
Gary Payne
2 years agoAn eye opening 2 days. Now rethinking what I knew and thought I knew to improve the way I approach projects and systems. Kimbo`s drive and enthusiasm is amazing, dont think he drew breathe once in two days, his delivery of the course is in plain and simple terms and very detailed. Well worth attending.Thanks Kimbo
David Mooney
2 years agoAbsolutely amazing course, Kimbo teaches in a way that’s easy to digest (but it’s definitely not easy) I can’t recommend this course enough
Gareth Lyne
2 years agoKimbo’s passion for all things heating is infectious from the get-go and really set the tone across the 2 days.There was a lot to learn but he breaks it up well and the supporting work sheets he gives you really help in getting your head around some of the trickier stuff.I probably learnt more about system design and functions in this 2 days than the last 15 years.I left the course with a new enthusiasm for the industry and will be putting some of this new knowledge to work straight away.Cheers Kimbo
Peter mott
2 years agoThis course/training is by far the best out there!Its a lot to take in but once you get you get it The whole layout is superb from the way kimbo explains everything to the take home info bookKimbo explains everything in simple terms and the course content is brilliant and will open your eyes to how wrong everyone dose things.If you want to be the best heating engineer around this course is a no brainer and its brilliant valve
Igor Vasiljevic
2 years agoThis course is an eye opener. For people who seriously wants to persuade heating and plumbing industry as profession they need to learn how to pipe size any system, how to pump size and how hydraulic works. With this course people will be on a path to be better engineers and save themselves from costly mistakes and troubles. Great teaching from instructor
Simon Field
2 years agoGreat 2 daysKimbo is great explains everything well, lots of info a must do. If you were to do one course do this one. My eyes have been opened.
Erik
2 years agoAmazing coarse ! Delivered so well by kimbo ! This coarse should be made a mandatory coarse for anyone that calls them self a heating engineer. Thanks again best money i ever spent !!
Simon Mountford
2 years agoGreat course and amazing delivery from Kimbo. Intensive but all explained in such a way that even my half dead brain could understand. A real eye opener which has inspired me to improve and change what I thought was the right way of doing things in the heating world.Get on this course, you won't be disappointed, unless you're expecting biscuits with your tea Cheers Kimbo
