Energy Calculations using Infrared Thermography

From Flir Systems Incorporated
 

 

With rising fuel and energy costs, ensuring your building is well insulated is becoming increasing important. Infrared thermography is an ideal measurement tool to check the continuity of insulation and determine areas of heat loss. IRT Surveys new energy software can help quantify regions of identified missing insulation with a minimum amount of additional data.
