PHCPPros is continuing our new virtual education series this May! The new series features premium, in-depth courses led by top industry experts. 

Our next course, "Heat Pump System (ASHP & GSHP) + Hybrid Design Overview Part 2," will be held live on May 24 from 11 a.m. - 1 p.m. CDT.  Attendees will be able to earn 2.0 LU | HSWs through the American Institute of Architects (AIA) and 0.2 CEUs through the International Code Council (ICC). 

Instructors Jay Egg, CMC, and Kristy Egg BSPH, RN, will build on our previous course by further teaching students about electric heat pump operation for the heating and cooling of buildings. This course will increase the capacity of participants to competently integrate air source and ground source heat pumps into buildings. The students will be taught about the obstacles in public perception with regard to heating with fossil fuels. They will be educated on the improvement to human health that comes from reduced carbon emissions.

Learning objectives include the following:
•Understand context and content of heat pumps
•Identify useful principles for operation and decarbonization
•Understand existing barriers to geothermal adoption and how to manage them
•Learn about carbon emission reduction goals
•Apply new knowledge personally at work and in life

Attendees can register for the two-hour course at bit.ly/3gAce1m. The price to attend is $39.

Meet the Instructors:

Jay Egg, Egg Geo, LLC, is a geothermal HVAC consultant, author and speaker. After serving in the U.S. Navy nuclear power field, he began a career in mechanical design engineering and contracting. Now, as an expert consultant, Jay sits on several technical code committees internationally, and is currently engaged as a member of the Legionella Task Group for the 2024 IAPMO Uniform Mechanical Code. He has co-authored two McGraw-Hill textbooks focused on geothermal HVAC technologies, and he continues to write curriculum and lecture on the merits of clean heating and cooling technologies.

Kristy Egg is a registered nurse, public health and epidemiology professional with a keen interest in environmental, community and public health programs. Over the past decade she has studied and developed a definite interest, bordering on obsession, in Legionella outbreaks in cooling towers. She now assists with water management programs, and she is quickly becoming a respected resource on Legionella-associated biofilms. This has led her to pursue additional education, certification and teaching in the public health and epidemiological arena.
