Aims:
By the end of the session students can:
Determine if a non-condensing boiler installation would be acceptable.
Identify requirements relating to space heating primary circuits type and design for gas-fired and oil-fired wet heating systems.

Planned Learning Outcomes:
By the end of this session learners will:
State whether the non-condensing boiler installation would be acceptable.
State the requirements relating to space heating primary circuits type and design for gas-fired and oil-fired wet heating systems.

Assessment of Learning:
Planned learning outcomes to be assessed by:
Students completing calculations to identify whether a non-condensing boiler would be acceptable in theoretical situations.
Students confirming which standards they have found and believe to be relevant.

Lesson Evaluation:

Health & Safety and Risk Assessment:
To be completed by all learners at the start of all new activities and reviewed and updated on a regular basis
