What is a Thermal Imaging Survey Service Overview?

Building envelope leaks, poor or inadequate insulation, facade integrity assessments, moisture and substandard work are costly to commercial and residential building owners- a thermographic building fabric survey can quickly help you find where energy efficiency can be improved.

Depending on your requirements, our surveys can range from an external overview of each elevation of the building under review, through to a full building fabric assessment of the fabric carried out internally and externally.

The Syntegra Group’s thermagraphic survey team carry out a non-intrusive survey and provide detailed reports based on the captured images for developments throughout the UK.

Our qualified team have a wide range of extensive experience which enables us to apply building construction and engineering knowledge, to our heat and energy loss findings detected by Thermal Imaging Cameras.

A thermographic survey carried from The Syntegra Group will aid you in proving compliance with Part L of building regulations and help in achieving necessary credits under BREEAM.

The benefits of thermographic surveying

  • Instant non-intrusive inspection
  • Visually impactful images
  • Demonstrates compliance with specification
  • Assists with obtaining BREEAM credits
  • Assists with dispute & fault identification and resolution (e.g cladding integrity assessments or thermal cladding assessments)
  • Demonstrates heating & cooling system effectiveness

Frequently Asked Questions

1 What is a thermal imaging survey and what can it identify?

A thermal imaging survey uses infrared technology to detect temperature variations on building surfaces. It is a non-intrusive method primarily used to identify heat loss, locate insulation faults, and detect air leakage or moisture issues within a building's fabric.

2 How does a thermal imaging survey contribute to Part L compliance?

Thermal imaging surveys help ensure compliance with Part L of the Building Regulations by identifying areas of excessive heat loss or poor insulation. The survey provides critical data on a building's thermal performance, which is essential for meeting energy efficiency standards and demonstrating regulatory adherence.

3 What are the advantages of using a non-intrusive thermal imaging survey?

The main advantage of a non-intrusive thermal imaging survey is its ability to assess a building's thermal performance without requiring any physical alteration or damage. This method allows for quick and efficient identification of hidden issues like heat loss and insulation defects, minimizing disruption and potential costs.

4 In which regions does Syntegra Group offer thermal imaging surveys?

Syntegra Group provides thermal imaging surveys across the UK. This service is available nationwide to help detect heat loss, identify insulation faults, and support Part L compliance for various building types.
