Launched in September 2001, Elite Specialist Training Ltd is now one of the leading specialised refrigeration and air conditioning training providers in the UK.

The emphasis of Elite’s operation is to make it as easy and as economical as possible for the delegates by offering training at your or our location. We carry out our full range of refrigeration and air conditioning training courses in Lancashire at Valera Refrigeration Ltd’s training facilities in Tarleton and can advise on affordable accomodation. Alternatively we are completely mobile and can carry out training on the customer’s premises or at a suitable nearby site, using high quality visual and full hands-on portable equipment. We are even prepared to travel abroad.

Course outcomes:

Full basic training is given with either a refrigeration or an air conditioning bias, followed by “hands on” diagnostics on real and fully operational systems. Refrigerant charging, recovery and decanting will be fully explained and practiced as will basic component part replacement. Installation procedures are also discussed. If required, at the end of this training session delegates can continue with either the CITB Safe Handling Of Refrigerants Certification Course or the City and Guilds 2078 - Safe Handling Of Refrigerants Assessment.

CITB Pipework And Brazing Assessments or Brazing Assessments to The British Refrigeration Association Specification may also be considered. Prospective clients should understand that refrigeration brazing techniques are totally different to any other types of brazing. In addition, the recently issued BS EN378 (formerly BS4434) covers the safety pressure testing, leak testing and evacuation of systems which have been newly installed or broken into for repair. We can show you the correct way to braze and to test the system and ultimately avoid those problems.
