Why is it necessary to carry out thermal inspection of the enclosing structures?

Current legislation requires that at the time of delivery of construction objects and their acceptance by the SACS, the developer should present a conclusion, which is made based on thermovision inspection of the enclosing structures. This document guarantees the quality of thermal protection.
 

Data collection and subsequent interpretation

The company “Regional Energy Efficiency Office” renders services on thermal audit of buildings, constructions and enterprises. As part of our work we carry out measures to control the quality of thermal protection. This involves checking the exterior walls of the room to find places where heat loss occurs.

Thermovision inspection of the enclosing structures is carried out with the help of special Japanese equipment by the specialists, who have corresponding certification, in full accordance with the methods approved by the manufacturer. If necessary, we are ready to provide the results of the tests, which are presented on our website.

Based on the conducted inspections the following types of infringements can be revealed:

• Hidden defects of walls and inter-panel seams – so-called “cold bridges”;
• Sites where condensation can be collected inside the surface;
• Sites where water leakage is possible (e.g., as a result of improper installation of warm floors);
• Presence of defects of low-quality installation of window blocks and double-glazed windows;

After the research the computer processing of results is carried out.
 

Why do you need energy audit of the building

Thermovision inspection of the enclosing structures has several purposes:

Diagnosis of loss level

Our experience shows that after such a study, one can find sources that are the basis for 30-40% of heat losses.

Possibility to avoid costly repairs

The availability of sources through which the heat disappears, allows you to solve the problem locally, not subjecting the entire surface to repair.
