Thermal Imaging Camera
Borrow our thermal imaging camera and find out where your home is losing heat.
A thermal imaging camera is a unique tool which can map the heat loss from your house. The cameras are sensitive to infra-red and make ‘temperature map’ images.
These can show problems with insulation, draughts, damp and more – useful in older homes, but they can also reveal defects in new-builds. The images are easiest to decipher when it’s at least 10°C warmer inside than out, so this is mainly a winter activity.
Some of the problems shown are easy for householders to fix, like draught-proofing, and some, like faulty insulation, may need professional help. Significant improvements in comfort, energy bills and carbon emissions can be made as a result.
Do you want to know where heat is escaping from your home? Borrow our thermal imaging camera for free and find out!
