Thermographic Analysis

Thermography enables you to visually identify, evaluate, and show energy loss or excess consumption in a facility or equipment.

  • Leaking insulation on pipes or ductwork
  • Energy loss around building envelope
  • Infiltration/exfiltration
  • Overloaded electrical cables/wiring
  • Overheating motors

Fault Type Description Typical Repair Cost Savings Typical Energy Cost Savings
Minor 1 – 9 ° F above the norm $500 $0.15 per fault per day
Intermediate 10 – 34 ° F above the norm $500 $0.40 per fault per day
Serious 34 to 75° F above the norm $3,000 $0.75 per fault per day
Critical ≥ 75° F above the norm $3,000 $0.75 per fault per day

Title
Equipment wear and tear and fire/safety hazards are more significant than costs from electrical energy losses.
