What our Heat Loss Survey checks for:
Draughts
Draughts from poorly installed windows, doors and can vastly increase your heating bills. We use a thermal camera to check for this alongside thermal bridging externally and internally.
|
Underperforming heating
There is only one way of checking for heating efficiency and that is also using a thermal camera (whether wall-mounted or under floor systems). We check for air pockets and other issues that may be occurring.
|
Insulation VoidsCavity wall insulation is there to prevent air circulation and we often find a shortfall. We use a specialist borescope camera to check several areas. We also check for inadequate loft insulation.
|
|
As part of our full package option we attend during the winter months to check for inadequate cavity wall insulation, loft insulation, draughts and underperforming heating systems.
When choosing your service, if you'd prefer to stick with the stand-alone snagging survey you can choose for us to spot check the cavity wall insulation with a borescope camera for just £25. Often we find voids, or even entire walls missing insulation as shown in the example shown here... |
