5.2.5 Application Example: Underfloor Heating Pipe Leak Detection

The thermal imaging capability is highly effective for detecting hidden issues suchs as leaks in underfloor heating pipes. Follow these steps for detection:

  1. Pressurize each circuit of the underfloor heating system.
  2. Use thermal imaging to locate the leaking circuit or inject hot water.
  3. Check the underfloor heating condition after fifteen minutes.
  4. Use thermal imaging along the circuit to find abnormal points or leak points.
