PEARL – Five students and their instructor have earned a professional certification from an industry leader.

Students Jesse Brewer, Courvoisier (Charles) Clayton, Patten Ford, Dereian Harris, Austin Martin and instructor Barry Evans each became a Noritz ProCard Installer/Service Technician this month. The certification is required to install and repair Noritz Tankless Water Heaters. Each will be provided additional online training, lead generation, promotional tools and rebates.

Noritz, an innovator in the water heating industry for more than 60 years, introduced the first modern electronically controlled tankless water heater in 1981. The company, along with Carr Plumbing Supply, a local supplier of the company’s heaters, paid for their training class.
