Thermography and Endoscopy for Cavity Wall Insulation

This week Red Current Ltd have been asked to include an endoscopic survey as part of our process when surveying a building confirming that insulation was present. An endoscope is a very small camera mounted at the end of a direction controlled cable enabling visual images to be recorded inside small inaccessible apertures such as cavity walls, pipe lines, mechanical machinery etc.

Thermographic surveys are often used to identifying anomalies that may be caused by missing/defective insulation and thermal bridging. However thermography is a non-destructive testing technique which sometimes requires supplementary testing methods to provide further verification.

From the images recorded with the endoscope it was clear that this part of the building did have cavity wall insulation. Take a look at the images below to see for yourself.
