Closed Circuit Boiler Water Treatment (CCBWT) is a two-day training course, designed to cover all aspects of CCBWT both from a legislative and best practice perspective. If you contract out your boiler water treatment you need to recognise the work the contractor is carrying out and advising for your system to keep it operating at its optimal condition.
This new training course is being launched in conjunction with the CEA published Guidance Note “BG02 Guidance on Safe Operation of Hot Water Boilers” and BG04 Section 5 “Boiler Water Treatment Guidance for………Hot Water Boilers”, to cover closed circuit heating systems of all sizes and pressures (LTHW – HTHW) apart from domestic.
Not many people appreciate that pressurised hot water systems are specifically mentioned in the HSE INDG436 document “Safe Management of Industrial Steam and Hot Water Boilers – A Guide for Owners, Managers and Supervisors of Boilers, Boiler Houses and Boiler Plant”. Water is fundamental for the hot water raising process, but it is generally recognised that nearly all
serious boiler failures can be traced back in some way to poor management of water quality in the boiler and hot water system. Suitable and sufficient training for boiler owners, operators and managers in the correct selection, operation, maintenance and testing of water treatment activities in their boiler house is therefore essential, not only to comply with the law, but in order to ensure that hot water boilers are operated safely and efficiently at all times.
Following the completion of the 2 days training course and 1 hour exam the successful candidate will receive an ID Card and Certificate valid for 5 years.
