I was just taking a look at my EPA 608 universal after obtaining it over 5+ years ago. I watched all your EPA 608 videos and went down to the local testing and passed it first try. These videos were way more helpful than the actual in-person education I was learning. During my HVAC courses, I watched nearly all your videos and was ahead of my class for months. My in-person professor was quite confused on how I've obtained so much knowledge ahead of the courses. I was recruited using EPA 608 and was half way through my HVAC certificate many years ago. Thank you for all you've done! For any newcomers into HVAC world, spend all your time through his videos! I played these videos while eating, driving, etc. Use all the time you have available to further yourself. You won't regret it! Best of luck!

Prof. Stringham is as good as it gets in teaching, with style, professionalism and downright impressive content knowledge. I'm forever a fan, AND recently Universally Certified Section 608 EPA. Do just as he teaches you! You will find yourself on the side of the scores that you dream about being on! so so good! Thanks again Edison HVAC.

The refrigeration technology is on the top , as it has many applications. Here in Europe , there is a growing popularity of using this technology in private house heating installations. And that will lead to increased demand for service technicians. I personally work in design department of a big company, where we've been developing a machinery based on ORC,it will be used to produce electricity from a low grade heat sources, eg. waste incinerators, geothermal plants, industrial process cooling cycles .... The basis of it is the manipulation of refrigerant in closed cycle , similar to that of cooling one. Here in place of expander valve , we use a screw compressor , which runs a generator .
