Some, but not all of our technicians have achieved an additional certification called the NFI Woodburning Certification. Technicians that perform fireplace installation and relining work are required to achieve an additional level of certification to ensure a baseline of knowledge to perform that type of work. The National Fireplace Institute (NFI) Woodburning Certification signifies that a technician has passed a rigorous exam covering a wide variety of topics that pertain to the proper planning and installation of wood-burning hearth appliances, like wood stoves, wood burning inserts, etc. Based on a detailed industry survey, known as a Job Analysis, an extensive list of vital knowledge statements and tasks was developed by the Hearth Patio and Barbecue Association’s educational group. This list is updated on a regular basis to ensure the knowledge and task list keeps up with ever changing products. The current certification exam is based on the 6th Edition Woodburning Reference manual.
