The Infrared Thermometer is a compact, easy-to-use tool used by both building inspectors and flooring professionals. It provides non-contact temperature measurement at varying work distances, high accuracy, and a wide measuring range.
A building inspector can find the Infrared Thermometer, or IR Thermometer, handy for measuring cold spots and insulation breakdown. They can pick up hot spots in electrical systems and bearings, gauge the temperature of a home or building’s heating system, like a hot water heater or furnace, and monitor cooling systems such as cold air leaks around HVAC systems. The Infrared Thermometer provides building inspectors with a more valuable inspection, giving them an advantage in the competitive inspection business.
A flooring professional can use the Infrared Thermometer for quick and accurate assessment and verification of the temperature of a concrete slab surface for meeting flooring, adhesive, and/or coating specs. With its convenient pistol-style grip, this lightweight thermometer can instantly give temperature readings to verify installation conditions. Used in conjunction with the Rapid RH® test, the Infrared Thermometer adds another vital piece of information for the installer to utilize in determining slab readiness with regards to flooring finishes.
