Terms of Use

Use TinnerFlow as a field communication aid, not as job approval.

TinnerFlow is built to help commercial HVAC sheet metal apprentices slow down, identify the problem, ask cleaner questions, and avoid guessing. It does not replace the people, drawings, standards, and approved documents that control the job.

1. Educational field assistance

TinnerFlow provides generic field reference material, apprentice learning paths, checklist prompts, and communication scripts. The content is not engineering, structural design, code approval, safety approval, manufacturer approval, or permission to perform work.

2. High-risk work

Do not use TinnerFlow as authorization for rigging, crane signaling, structural anchoring, core drilling, rated wall/floor changes, fire or smoke damper modifications, grease duct work, welding, electrical controls, confined spaces, lockout/tagout, or any other controlled task. Stop and get the qualified person, foreman, safety representative, manufacturer document, inspector, or AHJ when required.

3. User responsibility

By using the site, you agree to verify all information against your job documents and jobsite leadership before acting. You are responsible for following your employer’s training, PPE, fall protection, tool policy, permit requirements, and site-specific rules.

4. No warranty

The site is provided as-is. Field conditions vary by project, jurisdiction, equipment, manufacturer, crew practice, and code cycle. TinnerFlow cannot guarantee that a generic route fits your specific job condition.

5. Content and standards

TinnerFlow is written as original field guidance and does not intentionally reproduce copyrighted manuals, paid tables, proprietary shop standards, or manufacturer documents. When a card references codes, standards, or manufacturers, treat that as a reminder to verify the controlling document, not as a substitute for it.

6. Ownership of TinnerFlow™ content

TinnerFlow™ owns or controls the original text, route structure, field scripts, checklists, training questions, page layouts, and written guidance published on this site, except where outside standards, codes, manufacturers, or third-party materials are referenced.

Users may view and use TinnerFlow™ for personal field reference and learning. Users may not copy, scrape, mirror, republish, sell, repackage, or use TinnerFlow™ content to build a competing website, app, training product, database, AI tool, or commercial service without written permission.

7. External links and downloads

Links, downloads, and starter packs are for convenience. External standards, code bodies, manufacturers, contractors, and software providers control their own content and terms.
