Colorful spots in the thermal camera image display the temperature of the various elements of the building. Based on the analysis of thermograms, we can precisely identify the areas where the greatest heat loss occurs without having to interfere with the walls, as well as verify the condition of the electrical installation under full load. Early detection of any potential defects will enable us to quickly take appropriate action to improve the building’s energy efficiency by using an energy audit.

Thermal Imaging Surveys in Construction – Why Are They So Important?
Our primary service is examinations using a modern thermal imaging camera. Thermal imaging surveys allow us to verify whether the construction company has fulfilled its obligations. The investor can include in the contract with the contractor a clause to withhold part of the payment (e.g., for one year) to check during the heating season if the building is suffering from excessive heat loss.
By analyzing thermograms, one can determine whether the window and door installations have been properly executed. Sometimes, new windows do not meet construction standards due to various installation defects that cause uncontrolled heat loss. An excellent method for detecting such irregularities is through a thermal imaging examination. Thermal imaging inspections allow us to verify whether window and door frames are correctly fitted into the jambs, as well as to check the U-value (thermal transmittance) and compare it with the value provided by the manufacturer.
The thermal imaging camera also enables the detection of air leaks in buildings. This allows the construction team to implement the necessary adjustments during the building phase. Consequently, the investor can avoid costly reworks and unplanned repairs. In the case of heating pipes, thermal imaging makes it possible to locate the source of a leak without having to tear down entire walls.

Thermal Imaging Camera in Construction – How to Effectively Utilize It?
Conducting a thermal imaging survey in practice means significant savings for every property owner. It enables the effective detection of thermal insulation faults in internal partitions, thermal bridges, and any air leaks that contribute to heat loss. Once these issues are resolved, you can achieve considerable savings on energy costs.
