Thermal Inspection solves Climate Control Problems

Requirement:

Metrum was asked to help investigate room temperatures in a newly commissioned building.  The client was experiencing difficulty maintaining room temperature and the staff were complaining about cold areas and drafts which were causing discomfort and in some cases illness.

Solution:

The Thermographic survey was non-invasive which enabled the investigation to proceed during working hours.  Although the building was new, insulation and sealing problems were identified by the NEC TH7102MV camera, which was able to isolate very small temperature differentials on the walls, ceilings and windows.  These are indicated by the blue areas on the Thermal image below.

Outcome:

Metrum presented a full report to the client, with both thermal and visual images for the easy identification of problem areas together with recommendations based on its findings.  This report was then passed to the builder who was able to rectify the problems at minimum cost and disruption.
