OIL BURNER CODES

527 CMR 4.00

Firedragon Academy has provided training on 527CMR4.00, the Massachusetts Regulation, or Code, for oil burners, to over 46,000 Fire Inspectors, oilheat technicians, attorneys and insurance companies since 1975. Our firm has been the sole contractor to provide education for the oilheat service industry and the Commonwealth's Department of Fire Services.

Firedragon Academy is the custodian of the Checklist and has been the only source of the course textbook, The CMR 4.00 Guide© since 1995. The Guide is now in it's Sixth Edition and is considered the standard for installation and inspection purposes. 

All 527CMR4.00 seminars conducted by the Firedragon Academy include the Guide. George Lanthier is our primary instructor, who has been teaching the MA code since 1975, and he keeps everything 'same book, same page!'  

Firedragon Academy also includes in all seminars a copy of the industry accepted Checklist, Form 1 and Form 1A. 

We have supplied information and seminars to the Massachusetts Firefighting Academy, the Fire Marshal's Office and many local Fire Departments on the Regulation and we have been the sole contracted supplier on 527CMR4.00 to the Massachusetts State Fire Marshal's Office since 2000.

Private sessions for Fire Departments, home inspectors, trade associations, oil companies, heating contractors, insurance companies, attorneys and others may include the Guide at a special reduced seminar rate. Please call us for more information.

An intensive 8 Hour Program that prepares persons with 0-100 years experience for taking the MA State Exam. This is a combination of home-self study and preparatory exam that was designed for tradesmen who have the knowledge, just never got 'the ticket'. The program is very affordable and does not require that you spend up to a month or more in a school you don't need! These classes will be scheduled four times a year, or as required, and are held in Fiskdale (W. Sturbridge) MA.
