Training units

Hands-on HVAC learning, powered by real data.

measureQuick training units are fully functional HVAC systems that simulate real-world problems, powered by the same application your technicians use every day. Now shipping. Reserve your unit.

Real learning through real equipment

Train technicians the way they work in the field. measureQuick training units are fully functional HVAC systems designed to simulate real-world problems, including diagnostics, commissioning, and performance testing. These units are powered by the same application technicians use every day.

The training system

From training unit to field-ready technician

A training unit is one part of a three-part system: the measureQuick app your technicians already carry on every call, the unit with its switchable faults and live equipment, and structured instruction that ties them together.

The combination compresses the ramp. New technicians practice diagnostics on real refrigerant circuits with the same workflows they will run on the truck. When a fault is switched on, the trainee sees pressures shift, temperatures respond, and the app score the system in real time. That feedback loop is what turns eight weeks of structured training into field-ready confidence.

Your team trains on the same tool they use in the field, so muscle memory built in the lab transfers directly to live customer calls. Pair the unit with measureQuick's regional workshops and on-site programs or with your own in-house curriculum to build a ramp that fits your shop.

Versatile system configurations

Available in multiple variations to cover every major residential system. The most popular are:

Heat Pump + Gas Furnace

for dual-fuel markets

Heat Pump + Air Handler

optional electric heat, for heat pump training

Straight Cool + Air Handler

optional electric heat, for cooling-focused regions

Heat Pump Mini Split

for ductless specialization

Each configuration is built on a T-8020 structural aluminum frame supported by six locking casters. Every unit is compact, mobile, and designed to fit through a standard 36″ ADA-compliant doorway.

Built for measureQuick training

Every unit is built to work with the measureQuick application to teach:

  • App setup, navigation, and configuration
  • System profiling and data streaming
  • Geo-location and cloud account management
  • AI-assisted diagnostics and guided workflows
  • Report generation, benchmarking, and trending
  • Integration with BluVac™ and TrueFlow® Grid instruments

These systems give trainees the opportunity to learn measureQuick workflows alongside real equipment behavior, bridging the gap between theory and practice.

Common questions

What do I need to get started with a training unit?

A dedicated 120/240V 30-amp circuit and a space that fits the unit through a standard 36-inch ADA-compliant doorway. The unit arrives on locking casters and rolls into position. Your team downloads the free measureQuick app on their phones or tablets, connects Bluetooth probes, and starts diagnosing. The training units don't need additional licensing or software of their own. They are designed to work with measureQuick and work best when paired with Premier Services, and the package is negotiated when the unit is sold.

Which system configurations are available?

The four most popular configurations cover the major residential system types: Heat Pump + Gas Furnace (dual-fuel), Heat Pump + Air Handler (with optional electric heat), Straight Cool + Air Handler (cooling-focused regions), and Heat Pump Mini Split (ductless); other variations are available. Each is built on the T-8020 structural aluminum frame and is compact enough to move between classrooms or training bays.

How are faults simulated?

Each unit includes built-in, switchable faults across refrigerant, airflow, electrical, and condensate systems. Instructors toggle individual faults or combine them for complex scenarios. Examples include suction and liquid line restrictions, low or high refrigerant charge, dirty filters and coils, adjustable static-pressure conditions, open thermostat circuits, and simulated duct leakage. All faults are repeatable and safe to run during class.

Can I use the training unit with the same app my technicians run in the field?

Yes. The unit runs with the standard measureQuick app on iOS or Android. Trainees learn app setup, system profiling, data streaming, and report generation on the same interface they will use on customer calls, and can practice the AI-assisted diagnostics that come with Premier Services. What they practice in the lab transfers directly to the truck.

Does measureQuick offer instructor-led training alongside the unit?

Yes. measureQuick runs regional workshops, on-site programs, and a Master Class co-instructed by Jim Bergmann and NCI's David Richardson. Individual sessions listed on upskillhvac.com run from $99 to $1,500 per person, and team training packages start above $1,000 and range up to nearly $10,000 depending on size and scope. Companies can also certify their own in-house trainers through the Certified mQ Trainer and Champion course. See the training programs page and on-site training page for scheduling.
