Course Overview

This course is designed for both existing qualified level 1 airtightness testers as well as new entrants seeking to gain the basic skills and knowledge required to undertake Pulse airtightness tests. Learners are given hands-on experience with Pulse equipment alongside the background knowledge of the methodology in order to carry out airtightness tests for a range of different purposes. This course is particularly popular with those looking to carry out airtightness testing for non-regulatory purposes e.g. in-house stock condition testing or pre-compliance testing work. It can also be used as a means of CPD for those simply looking to better understand the technology and the associated market opportunities.

Note: None of the course content can be used to replace parts of the full Level 1 Airtightness Testing Training or the Pulse Upskill Training for BlowerDoor Testers.
