Explore thermal imaging and building diagnostics with infrared cameras, surface-temperature instruments, hygrometers and building-material moisture meters. Learn to compare temperature patterns, investigate condensation risk and examine potential insulation, ventilation or moisture problems.Guides explain emissivity, reflected temperature, image interpretation, humidity and dew-point measurements, and the difference between a surface-temperature image and evidence of water within a building element. Discover techniques for identifying cold surfaces, documenting observations and deciding which follow-up checks are needed. Thermal images alone do not prove a leak, mold growth or a hidden construction defect; instrument limitations and site conditions matter.
Use the testo 625 to measure room-air temperature and relative humidity and read the calculated dew point. Then measure the suspect wall’s surface temperature with a separate suitable instrument . If the surfac.
Place the testo 608-H1 in the room to monitor air temperature, relative humidity and displayed dew point over time. Compare the dew point with separately measured wall-surface temperatures when dampness appears.
To inspect building moisture with the testo 606-1 , select the correct material characteristic curve, press both pin electrodes into the material as instructed and compare measurements at several equivalent loc.
testo 605i: testo 605i measures air temperature and relative humidity, allowing dew-point assessment through the companion app. It does not directly.
testo 868: testo 868 is a handheld thermal imager for identifying apparent surface-temperature patterns in building inspection. Thermal colour.
testo 871: testo 871 thermal imager supports building/maintenance surveys with thermal detail suited to differentiating surface patterns; available.
