4 Reasons Why You Need a Thermal Investigation
Published 23rd September 2020
If you haven’t yet realised the power of diagnosing electrical issues in your building before you can physically see them…we’re pleased to introduce you to Thermalscan.
1 – See emerging issues before they become critical
If you have a sneaking suspicion of hidden problems within your building, you might be right. Thermalscan is a highly valuable technology we use to uncover issues in your building that cannot be seen by the naked eye.
Thermal imaging is a technology which uses infrared imaging to diagnose problems. We use this to spot anything electrical that is at risk of overheating.
When you have a thermal imaging scan with Garvic, we can detect an impressive range of hazards before they become drastic. These include: building insulation, water leaks, pest detection, heat exchanger abnormalities, electrical fire hazards and more.
2 – Ensure your switchboard is compliant
The importance of switchboard maintenance often goes unchecked in commercial buildings. A thermal scan may ensure your switchboard is healthy. In many cases, insurers will expect annual thermal scan “check-ups” in order to certify compliance.
A thermal scan may ensure your switchboard is healthy and compliant by checking the following items:
- Loose connections and terminals
- Correct control gear installed
- Area is clear of dust and debris
- Protective covers and locks are working correctly
- Insulation remains intact
