Non-contact body temperature measurement
Energy efficiency in buildings audits and building diagnostics using a thermographic camera FLIR E6 (160 x 120 pixels)
Introduction
- Inspecting buildings using a thermographic camera (thermal imaging camera) is a powerful and non invasive means of monitoring and diagnosing the condition of buildings and the energy efficiency in buildings
- A thermal imaging camera can identify problems early, allowing them to be documented and corrected before becoming more serious and more costly to repair
- A building diagnostics inspection with a thermal imaging camera can help:
- Visualize energy losses
- Detect missing or defective insulation
- Source air leaks
- Find moisture in insulation, in roofs and walls, both in the internal and the external structure
- Detect mold and badly insulated areas
- Locate thermal bridges
- Locate water infiltration in flat roofs
- Detect breaches in hot-water pipes
- Detect construction failures
- Monitor the drying of buildings
- Find faults in supply lines and district heating
- Detect electrical faults
Energy efficiency in building audits and building diagnostics
The thermographic pictures were taken in Boston (USA) on the 18th February 2017
The following picture was taken in a different apartment in winter in Boston:
Photos taken on a very cold day in winter in Boston in a flat with very leaky windows. There are energy losses through very leaky windows
