Medical Gas ASSE 6010 Installer Re-Certification
For some of you who are medical gas certified, you know that every {3} yrs. we have to re-certify the ASSE 6010 Installer. Different from the brazer certification which is to be re-certified each {6} months.
Per the ASSE 6000, a 4-hour course is now required before signing up for the ASSE 6010 Installer re-certification exam. Whereas in years past, there was no 4-hour course required. Only sign up, take and pass the 6010 Installer exam every {3} years.
I did an internet search and couldn't find this required 4-hour course. A company up in NH said they should have this course on their website in about a week. But my certification expires soon, towards the end of Feb. {this month} so I was getting nervous.
I called the NITC in CA and they have a link on their website to NFPA's website. As you know, the NFPA {Nat'l. Fire Prevention Association} writes and publishes the medical gas code book.
The NFPA does indeed give the required 4-hour course on their website. So for those of you who may need to take this course, there is no need to sweat, the NFPA's website has all the information. Most medical gas plumbers do these re-certifications through their local union {as I did in the past} or through their employer. But for those who are self-employed, it may be a bit confusing. That's why I am posting this.
