Over the past 100 years, Bell & Gossett has trained more than 60,000 engineers in the hydronic industry through our flagship Little Red Schoolhouse program. That commitment to training continues today with the launch of the Bell & Gossett Remote Learning Hub. Even though we can’t be there with you in person, we’re still making over a century of knowledge available to you, quickly and easily.
Take advantage of our ongoing live webinar series highlighting a variety of industry topics. The schedule below will be updated regularly, so be sure to check back often.
Wednesday, May 27, 2020 | 10:00-11:00 a.m. ET
To help select pumps that maximize efficiencies while reducing energy costs, Bell & Gossett developed a pump selection criteria called Part Load Efficiency Value (PLEV). The company's own Kyle DelPiano will explain how it works, how to apply it and the benefits it provides.
Thursday, May 28, 2020 | 2:00-3:00 p.m. ET
A basic grasp of the system is all that’s required for most residential and light commercial zoning jobs. During Part 2 of this two-part webinar, you'll learn four simple rules that will help you quickly select the correct pipe size for shared flow, understand pump head, and select a circulator for a simple system.

This module of Bell & Gossett’s Centrifugal Pump Training course runs approximately 22 minutes. It defines a pump curve, describes its key elements, shows how pump curves are calculated, and explains what they identify.
This module of Bell & Gossett’s Modern Pump Selections course runs approximately 25 minutes. It introduces the formula for calculating the weighted average pump efficiency, which can help designers compare pumps based on loads at partial flow rates.
This module of Bell & Gossett’s Pressure Booster Systems course runs approximately 15 minutes. It details the various factors to consider when selecting a pressure booster, including the building type, friction losses and more.
This module of Bell & Gossett’s Waterside Economizer course runs approximately 12 minutes. It explains how waterside economizers work, and it examines the ASHRAE energy efficiency standard for economizers.
This module of Bell & Gossett’s Centrifugal Pump Training course runs approximately 11 minutes. It provides an overview of various types of pumps and their applications, and explains what factors to consider when selecting a pump for a particular project.
Choose from a great selection of previously recorded webinars below. We’ll update this list regularly, so check back often for new topics.
The AHRI Liquid to Liquid Heat Exchanger (LLHE) program certifies the performance of gasketed plate heat exchangers designed to transfer heat from one single phase fluid to another in an HVAC system. Learn how the program ensures that all manufacturers are designing to the same tolerances.
Learn about special concerns for pumps and systems that protect high rise buildings. This webinar compares and contrasts pump options for use in this application, and reviews NFPA 20 basics with special emphasis on Chapter 5, including relevant definitions.
Discover why balance is important to a well-designed and commissioned HVAC system. In this webinar, we discuss where balance and flow measurement is needed in closed and open hydronic systems, and we review the pros and cons of various balance valve technologies.
The Series e-HSC was designed specifically for HVAC systems, to improve efficiency and increase energy savings. Find out how its advanced hydraulic design delivers powerful performance and best-in-class efficiency, with a lower life cycle cost than similar pumps.
See the industry’s first and most comprehensive online selection tool in action. This webinar features a demo of ESP-Systemwize™ that shows how you can choose all system components in a single integrated tool, to ensure the most efficient hydronic system design.
Bell & Gossett’s Mark Handzel will brief you on what you need to know to take advantage of the relief offered by this new law, which promises hundreds of billions of dollars in loans, grants and other financial relief for small businesses with fewer than 500 employees.
The Energy Conservation Standards for Pumps took effect in January, 2020. In this webinar, Bell & Gossett’s Mark Handzel will discuss how to ensure compliance and energy savings through technologically advanced and efficient products, and smart system design.
Mike Licastro, Bell & Gossett’s Education Manager, will provide guidelines on proper storage, routine maintenance and intermittent operation of key components, should your commercial hydronic or steam systems need to be shut down or operated at reduced capacity for an extended period.
Learn the fundamental design and evaluation skills you need to properly create a parallel pumping system best suited for your project application. Mike Licastro, Bell & Gossett’s Education Manager, will provide guidelines for pump selection, performance assessment and control strategy
In part 1 of this two-part webinar, Bell & Gossett’s Education Manager, Mike Licastro, will discuss the two methods of efficient variable speed pump control most commonly used in today’s commercial building systems. Discover how they differ, the proper system design for each, and more.
Mike Licastro, Bell & Gossett’s Education Manager, will continue this two-part webinar by explaining how sensorless variable speed control works and describing pump selection criteria. He’ll conclude with a final summary on how to choose the best control strategy for a system.
Bell & Gossett's Chris Kerback will discuss why balance is important to a well-designed and commissioned HVAC system. He'll review a variety of topics, including the negative impacts of an unbalanced system and self-balancing techniques that can be utilized via system design.
Learn about the new functionality in the industry’s first and most comprehensive online selection tool, ESP-Systemwise™. Bell & Gossett's Alan Jones will demonstrate how it ensures the most efficient hydronic system design for HVAC and plumbing system designers.
Most residential and light commercial zoning jobs don’t require an engineering degree. In part 1 of this two-part webinar, you'll learn five basic rules that will help you quickly determine the system’s required flow rate, size pipe based on maximum flows, and understand the heat carrying capacity of pipes.
