The course is intended for workers in construction or manufacturing who use construction heaters and/or vapour torches. The CSA B149.1 Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code and CSA B149.2-15 “Propane Storage and Handling Standard” states that all persons that use propane and propane fired equipment must be properly trained.
Upon completion, participants will be able to recognize and evaluate the hazards associated with propane. They will also be able to safely connect, disconnect and activate propane equipment up to 400,000 BTUH. This course does not allow for the operation of construction heaters and torches greater than 400,000 BTUH. The program includes hands-on training outdoors, consisting of connecting, lighting and disconnecting a torch or heater, and classroom performance reviews. The training certificate is valid for three (3) years.
