Training Opportunities

Webinar: Gas-Fired Absorption Heat Pumps
Wednesday, Jul. 31, 2024 at 10 a.m.

Presenter Tony Ranallo of Boiler Source will cover gas-fired absorption heat pumps, which combines a generator and absorber to create a thermal compressor. This technology replaces the electric compressor, which is standard in air conditioning and heat pump systems. Learn how using a pump rather than a compressor increases efficiency and makes lower running costs achievable.
