Program Overview

Rising fuel costs, indoor air quality, and climate change are all factors in raising awareness of the true cost of energy, plus the need for energy-efficient building environmental system design, construction, and maintenance.

The Heating, Refrigeration, and Air Conditioning Technology three-year advanced diploma program addresses the current and future needs of the heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration (HVAC/R) industry. In the first two years, you'll learn about residential and some light commercial systems. In the third year, we'll hone in on your understanding of commercial systems.

This program covers the basics of air system and hydronic (water) system theory needed to design distribution systems, select suitable fans, pumps, heating and cooling systems, and controls for larger buildings.

The program follows industry-standard design practices for environmentally responsible and energy-efficient residential, commercial, and industrial systems, as established by the Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Institute (HRAI), the American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the Canada Green Building Council.
