Thermal Imaging (Case Seven)

Case Seven: Leaking Skylight

Building Type: High Rise Hotel with attached Spa

Complaint: Constant water on hallway floor causing falls.

Type: Guest safety.

Cause: The owner informed me during an energy audit that they have constant complaints of a wet floor in a hall way corridor connecting the hotel with a spa. Using thermal imaging, I was able to detect the presence of water without being able to see it. See Image pair 1.

Who Am I?

I started my HVAC career working for a plumbing and heating contractor in my home town full time and part time during college. Later, working for Trane as a building automation technician, I learned the value of life time client relationships.  I feel it is important to incorporate a team environment in every project. This includes the contractors, designers, and owners working towards a common goal of creating lasting, energy efficient, and comfortable buildings.  I believe that any building can operate more efficiently, and we should push them as far as possible.  With my experience in building automation, contracting, thermal imaging, and commissioning, I am here to do that.
