iConnect Training took our training not to the next level, to about three levels above the next level. It has been game-changing to be able to have the students not only repair equipment that they can troubleshoot and have to diagnose to fix it but to also see how the system works, especially in air conditioning. When the students can see the actual refrigerant cycles working, it helps them put the pieces together in their head. So, when they go out in the field, they already have an understanding on how the system is going to work. Our students put the mind with the muscle memory, and they develop those skills very quickly at an accelerated speed. We wouldn’t be able to do that without this equipment.
“I like the fact that we have an unobstructed view of the workings of the air handler, and we can show students the parts without having to take covers off. Now that they are on a smaller platform, it’s easier to move from classroom to classroom. These Training Units are well put together, and everything is sturdy. They give us the ability to mimic service problems and have students try to overcome them with good methodology.”
“You can always help a situation by doing 1 of the following 3 W’s: provide Wealth, Wisdom or Work. The $2,000 gift certificate (Wealth) will definitely be used to help get the program rolling!”

“The TU-805 trainers we purchased have been the best money I have spent for my lab, they really help explain the refrigeration cycle to my students. It makes it so much easier when they can see what is going on and follow the flow. I also like the ability to control the fan speeds so you can demonstrate plugged filters and coils, they are truly amazing. One of my first year students even made the comment that they are the greatest thing since sliced bread!!! I have to agree with him, as they really help get that “Ah ha” moment when the students get what is going on. Thank you again and I look forward to more products from NPI.”
“Thank you again for the awesome service you provide to us, it’s noticeable, and appreciated.
Your friend in the industry, Alan Mecurio”
