DIAG 5 - Getting Started Successfully with IR

Wednesday, April 29, 2009  ·  10:35 AM - 12:15 PM

If you do final inspections, training, energy assessments, or diagnose mold and moisture problems, this may be the next tool to consider. Contractors and crews benefit from feedback on the effectiveness of their installations. Building problems can be more easily explained visually, which often results in sales that may otherwise slip through the cracks. Experience the world of infrared cameras - a wide-ranging, totally non-commercial discussion of new, lower-cost thermal imaging systems. Learn what they are, what they aren't, how to evaluate them, what to watch out for, and what's coming next!

 

By attending this session, participants will

 

1. Understand the basics of infrared diagnostics in residential structures
2. Find out how not to be fooled by what you think you see
3. Recognize the value of using infrared thermography for building inspections, and discover the benefits of using the latest infrared technologies, especially lower-cost cameras
