I like the analogy of ‘a cork in the water’ – I will use that when I break out the Ti 32 with the Bloor Door going.

This post about building inspection protocols was of great interest to us, as we’re in the building system inspection industry as well. We especially liked what was said about the building envelope. We’d like for you to check out our web site: http://www.irtest.com. We offer infrared & ultrasonic testing solutions for electrical systems, building envelopes and commercial roofing systems nationwide. Any comments would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I use thermal imaging to test electrical distribution panels I often find loose wires and deteriorating circuit breakers long before they become a real problem I have also found worn bearings on motors and generators well before any real problem exists,this allows planned maintenance rather than reactive with its associated down time I believe that most commercial industrial electricians would benefit from owning a thermal imager.

No, im not currently using thermography while on the job. But definitely for the winter months, i think its a great idea. It will revolutionize assistance to those in need, and in the hands of plenty of people, might also assist in neighborhood watches. have a safe and happy new year! stevegtexas@aol.com 2012.

Comment on Heat Transfer, Temperature and R-value by Tom Ligon

I’m about to buy a FLIR i7, but I don’t expect to be able to estimate heat flow with it without also investing in some heat flux sensors (Omega HFS-3 as an example). Even then, a lot of assumptions are needed. One of my pet peeves is lack of good data on heat loss thru concrete floors and gravel beds. I expect I’ll have to actually build test structures and measure their performance. I’ll probably even put together a guarded hot plate to get verifiable readings on these materials. I agree … while thermography is great, some applications of them require a lot of wishful thinking.

I think youve made some truly interesting points. Not too many people would actually think about this the way you just did. Im really impressed that theres so much about this subject thats been uncovered and you did it so well, with so much class. Good one you, man! Really great stuff here.

I successfully completed Snell’s Level 1 thermography course last October here in Indianapolis. Getting close to the 200 hours so that I can obtain Level 2 certification, but the only way they will pay for the class is if I can provide them with justification to pay for it. I told them that we were told in class most insurance provides a small discount if we can prove we have a predective maintenance plan in place that uses thermal imaging. I just need some kind of documentation that most insurers do this. I suggested they ask our insurance company but they gave it back to me.
Any possible way of helping me so I can attend Snell’s Level 2 class next year here in Indianapolis?
