We use an infrared thermometer and thermographic camera to locate the bad insulation. We write down all your insulated steam lines and identify missing insulation. Therefore, we are able to locate the bad insulation that is not visible to the eye. Each spot of bad insulation is tagged with a numbered metal tag for identification. Upon completion of the survey, you will receive an EXCEL file with the following information:
- Header size, pressure, temperature and measurement of bad insulation in feet
- Measurement, description, temperature, and location of all un-insulated steam headers in Excel format
- We estimate head loss in PPH and dollar loss.
