ID HVAC · Work through your exam, one topic at a time.

The Idaho HVAC Board is one of the occupational boards administered by the Idaho Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses (DOPL), the state agency whose stated mission is "Dedicated to Consumer Protection and Public Safety." DOPL's Building, Construction & Real Estate group lists the HVAC Board alongside Electrical, Plumbing, Factory Built Structures, and Liquefied Petroleum Gas Safety, and DOPL's online services include purchasing an Electrical, HVAC or Plumbing permit and requesting an Electrical, HVAC or Plumbing inspection. This page is an independent study resource for candidates preparing for the Idaho HVAC Board licensing examination; it is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by DOPL or the HVAC Board. The exam tests the technical knowledge and code understanding expected of a licensed heating, ventilation and air conditioning professional working in Idaho, covering the trade as a single domain. Preparation should combine a careful read of the statutes, rules and guidance DOPL publishes, hands-on field experience with installation and service work, and repeated practice on scenario-style questions. Because DOPL does not publish exam length, time limit, fee, or passing score on the pages reviewed here, confirm those details directly with the Board before you schedule. DOPL also notes that it is phasing in new renewal cycles for some boards and commissions, so check the HVAC Board's own page for whether your renewal schedule is affected. Topics on this exam: Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC). The ID HVAC study guide has 1 section and about 443 words.

Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC)

Domain Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning menguji kemampuan menghitung beban pendinginan dan ventilasi, merancang distribusi udara, memilih peralatan, serta mendiagnosis sistem refrigerasi pada iklim tropis Indonesia. Soal bertumpu pada psikrometri, laju udara luar, kapasitas PK, dan kepatuhan terhadap SNI 03-6572 (ventilasi dan pengkondisian udara) serta SNI 6390 (konservasi energi sistem tata udara). Beban pendinginan selalu dipecah menjadi sensibel dan laten. Udara luar Indonesia yang panas dan lembap membuat beban laten besar, sehingga kapasitas unit tidak boleh ditaksir dari luas ruangan saja.
