Training

Any person who is either installing or specifying TracPipe^® and TracPipeCC^® has the option of undertaking the free of charge training offered by OmegaFlex^®. Training can take place on-site, at your offices or via our video conferencing facility.

Why should installers take the training?

Although TracPipe^® and TracPipeCC^® are quick and simple to install, installers need to ensure they get the fundamentals of installation correct, such as always ensuring a good clean cut and tightening the AutoFlare^® fittings to the correct torque. By being properly trained and introduced to the product, this will ensure installers make a correct gas tight joint first time, every time.

Also, by being trained, installers will be aware of the additional support we offer such as technical support, site visits, and free sizing service.

“We offer
free of charge
training to users
and specifiers.”

What does the training cover?

The free of charge training gives you all the fundamental information about the product including:

Key benefits including ease and speed of installation, no hot works, minimal joints and light weight products
Installation requirements such as direct burial, external installations, routed within fire protected areas and unventilated voids
Assembly of the AutoFlare^® fittings and the extensive range available
The ‘do and don’ts’

Training typically takes between 45 minutes and an hour to complete and the session will involve an introduction to both TracPipe^® and TracPipeCC^® with a demonstration of how to assemble the AutoFlare^® fitting. Attendees will also be given an opportunity to assemble a fitting themselves and then they need to complete a question paper to demonstrate their understanding.
