The D&D seminar is designed to give the veteran chimney service technician a way to communicate chimney defects to their clients in a clear and concise manner. By following the recommended methods taught in this seminar, liability is reduced and customers are better informed.
Additionally, past attendees have reported an increased acceptance of their chimney evaluation reports when using the ideas presented in the course. This has resulted in increased repairs and a noticeable increase in the bottom line of the participants.
New chimney sweeps will also find this class instruction extremely valuable, however we do recommend that there be a basic knowledge of chimney dynamics prior to arrival at the seminar. Here are just a few of the topics covered:
Basic chimney construction
History of building codes, changes to code, and codes impact on the chimney service industry
Words to use and words to avoid when preparing an evaluation form
How to best complete a written evaluation form
Understanding thermal failure in the masonry chimney environment
Understanding ceramic theory and how it applies to chimney diagnosis
Many times, past participants attend the seminar more than once, in order to absorb as much useful information as possible. The course has evolved over the years, and the course's author has made changes to the course, based on documented court cases where the liability of the chimney technician has been at great risk.
The course has been previously attended by many different industry technicians, including professional engineers, home inspectors, building inspectors, fire officials, insurance industry personnel, fireplace installers, and the list goes on. Many on this list will be glad to tell you that this is the best money for training you will spend in the industry today.
We make this guarantee to you: If you attend this fantastic seminar and do not receive a value that relates to increased profits and lower liability to your business, the CSIA will refund the cost of your tuition upon the return of your instructional materials to the CSIA office.
This course can be brought to your location through your sponsorship if you so desire. If you wish to sponsor a D&D Seminar with other sweeps in your particular area, contact CSIA for complete details.
