Iowa 2 Hour 2015 IMC Review Chapters 1-4 & 12-15 (Part 1)

This IMC review offers 2 hours of approved CE for Iowa licensees. In the course, we'll review some of the most important amendments and updates to the IMC made for the 2015 edition.

We'll start with the changes to Chapter 1, which contains direction on administration procedures and other policies for HVAC contractors. Chapter 2 will cover the definitions used in the IMC, so we'll look at the changes to important definitions there.

In our Chapter 3 review, we'll discuss the general regulations that have changed, including those which apply to confined spaces, safety equipment to prevent falls, evaporators, condensate pumps, and more.

Chapter 4 covers ventilation requirements and recirculation prohibitions.  We'll talk about the changes to the rules for outdoor airflow rates, and discuss new codes added to Section 403.3.

Finally, we'll move into a discussion of geothermal energy, which provides power generation for application around the world. We'll talk about the Chapter 12 changes which address energy code compliance, before tackling oil piping and storage (Chapter 13), solar systems Chapter 14), and the standards discussed in Chapter 15.
