"This is something that the industry really needed"
has been a very common feedback statement.

Eric Dickie, founder of Delta Geothermal in Canada, joined forces with IGSHPA and also with CGC and established himself as an accredited trainer for both organizations. Participants in the Canadian training sessions made it obvious that Canadian Energy Exchange installers and designers desire the inclusion of Canadian data and information in the ever-growing energy exchange industry. One of the purposes of this manual is to respond to the request for a Northern climate manual that meets the needs of the energy exchange world. Learning institutions, individuals, and organizations of diverse backgrounds and focuses have called for the content in this manual. It can serve as a reference source for all or as a text for a training group.

In addition, this manual includes the new trends and emerging ideas/innovations in the field.   It is time to investigate and report on the use of energy exchange systems from an open-ended approach and more fully develop the potential of energy exchange.

From teaching the Installers’ courses across Canada from the Maritimes to Vancouver Island, input and evaluations have been gathered and used in the design of Energy Exchange. Its aim is to be practical in its approach with the ultimate objective being that of useful application. The content gives examples of practical applications of the concepts covered. Scenarios are used to provide opportunities to practise or further explain methods, skills, and information.

It is also possible to provide study guides, custom-designed for diverse learning situations should varied organizations find this to be a helpful tool.
