Thermal Cameras for Building Diagnostics

The building sector offers the largest single potential for improving energy efficiency, and therefore the EU has formed a directive for  Energy Performance of Buildings (European Energy Performance of Buildings Directive, EPBD), that will become mandatory within the EU for all new buildings and large construction during 2008.

Infrared thermography is the easiest and quickest method to detect energy waste, moisture and electrical issues in buildings.  An infrared camera shows exactly where the problems are and helps focus the inspectors' attention allowing him or her to properly diagnose areas with energy loss.

	Building Diagnostics Buildings may be quickly and thoroughly scanned using a FLIR thermal imager, identifying problem areas that can't be seen by the naked eye. Learn more
	Energy Auditing & Home Inspection Excessive air leakage can account for up to half of the energy consumed to condition buildings. The leakage pathway is often complex and, without thermal imaging, extremely difficult to visualize. Learn more
	Property & Facility Management Thermal imagers are a valuable tool in predictive maintenance of electrical, mechanical, and structural systems, to detect problems, prevent downtime, guide corrective action, and increase work safety. Learn more
	HVAC & Plumbing With FLIR thermal imagers it's easy to scan an entire building to see the relation of HVAC system, building envelope, and plumbing issues. Learn more
	Moisture & Restoration The presence of moisture in building envelopes, either from leakage or condensation, can have serious consequences.  With infrared images, water damage is easily detected. Learn more
