James, good thing you keep that next to your moisture meter. That way you’ll be able to tell missing insulation from water intrusion… or will you??
IR cameras don’t detect moisture…just the temperature changes associated with it…but you know that.
wow…
That was the point…
IR camera’s only detect Apparent temperature’s, not always actual.
It’s the operator who needs to thermally tune the camera to see if what he’s looking at is actual or apparent.
PS. don’t forget to look at the floors as well as the walls and ceilings.
That’s where it all starts.
What about a thermal temperature sensor. Would this allow me the same identification in walls, ceilings, etc.
I understand that IR cameras are able to cover a broader area, extremely sensitive, broader area of functionality, etc, but its the start-up cost that is involved ( for me ) and the educational training.
If so which one ( Thermal sensor ).
Thanks… Robert
