Tech School Uses No Ducks.
Henry Abbott
Technical High School in Danbury, CT, has chosen to add No Ducks
in the Attic and Other Basics of HVAC Installation by R.J.
Schuster to their HVAC program. Bill Clark, head of the program
and former Teacher of the Year, believes that using the light
hearted and easy to read manual will provide a good third party
perspective in teaching jobsite basics to the students.

R.J. Schuster offers
a unique and refreshingly simple look at the basics that are often
ignored by apprentice programs and employers. Subjects such as
load calculations and duct sizing are discussed, along with how to
avoid many common mistakes, with a few comical stories thrown in
for good measure.
The books were
donated to the school and presented to the class by the author who
gave a short presentation. Instrumental in the coordination of the
project was Pete Donnelly, owner of Donnelly Heating Maintenance,
also in Danbury. Pete is a former president of the Connecticut
Association of the Plumbing, Heating, and Cooling Contractors, or
CT-PHCC, and remains a staunch advocate for the advancement of our
industry.
