Thermal Imaging Reports

Quick down and dirty, or detailed reporting. The FLIR imaging is accurate to tenths of a degree, and our imaging reports can show problems invisible to other diagnostic methods. The following images are samples of what we can discover.

         
   
Looks bad, but look at the scale;
49 to 59 degrees F.
  Our FLIR 360-series imager.   This 3-phase breaker is on,
but not really running too hot.
   
This device IS hot: 260 degrees   Again, looks bad, but is really fair.   Hot!
   
A Main at 300 degrees.
Failure pending.
  A breaker with issues.   Fuse overloading
   
Neutral Heating   Regular B/W photography below room temperature, but set up to display thermal above that.   Breaker Heating
Thermal imaging is also useful for looking inside walls. The two images to the right show the hot-spot  inside a new construction wall, and the actual point of failure- the nail through the romex. 

All using a scale of 7.3 degrees difference.
   
         
The 360-series by FLIR (they invented thermal imaging) is the "Big Brother" of the imaging cameras used on TV's "Ghost Hunters".
         

Studs inside a new wall.
 
Insulation Failure.
 
My own 100 year-old house.
The same system also works quite well for residential and commercial heat loss / gain checks.
