Warmur Academy partners with Ideal Heating to launch Hydronics Unlocked Online

28 Jan 2026
Ideal Heating is supporting Warmur Academy to launch Hydronics Unlocked Online, a brand-new digital training programme that helps heating professionals apply modern system design principles in the real world, on any job.
The collaboration brings together Ideal Heating’s training leadership and trusted installer brand with Warmur Academy’s specialist expertise in hydronic system design, to jump-start a shift in competency across the industry.
Andrew Johnson, Training Director at Ideal said:
"I’m delighted to be working with the team at Warmur Academy. We share the same vision: to make good system design the norm, not the exception."
As the industry moves towards heat pumps and lower flow temperatures, system design is no longer a “nice to have”. It’s the difference between systems that perform well and those that struggle from day one.
When design falls short, the resulting performance issues are often blamed on products, even though the root cause is usually decisions made long before commissioning.
Hydronics Unlocked was built to bridge the gap between the theory installers need to know and how they apply that in the real world.
Rather than teaching isolated topics, the programme is structured around Warmur Academy’s 10-step hydronics process, giving engineers a clear framework they can apply consistently to design any system, whether they’re working on boilers today or heat pumps tomorrow.
In practice, this means helping engineers to:
Until now, Hydronics Unlocked has been delivered as an in-person one-day course.
With Ideal Heating’s support as a founding partner, the programme is now being expanded into an interactive digital learning platform, allowing engineers to:
The digital programme will sit alongside our in-person training and include a recognised Low Temperature qualification.
Kimbo Betty added:
"Hydronics Unlocked is the end result of years spent trying to give engineers the practical understanding we were never properly taught. Massive credit to Ideal for stepping forward to help take this to the whole trade, so the course can reach a far wider audience."
The Hydronics Unlocked digital programme is launching at InstallerSHOW, Birmingham NEC (23-25 June).
If you're signed up to our mailing list before the show, you'll receive an exclusive 20% discount on the price of the online course and receive our free Five-Part Hydronic Design Series straight to your inbox (fill in the sign up form below).
