Infrared thermometer

The infrared thermometer is a compact, user-friendly tool, used by both building inspectors and flooring professionals. The non-contact tool measures temperature at different working distances, with great precision and a wide measurement range.

Building inspectors find that the infrared thermometer or IR thermometer are useful for measuring air currents and insulation breaks. They can detect hot spots in electrical systems and bearings, measure the temperature of a house or a building's heating system, such as a water heater or furnace, and also monitor air conditioning systems to detect cold air leaks around HVAC systems. The infrared thermometer provides building inspectors with important control, an advantage in the competitive inspection business.

Flooring professionals use the infrared thermometer to assess and monitor the temperature at the surface of concrete slabs to meet the specifications of floors, adhesives and/or coatings. With its pistol-grip style, this lightweight thermometer instantly provides temperature readings to verify installation conditions. Used together with the Rapid RH®, the infrared thermometer adds an important element for installers in determining readiness for floor finishing.

User settings include Celsius or Fahrenheit readings, with or without a red target light guide. Instant temperature readings, handy size and style, plus Wagner Meters' commitment to product quality, make the infrared thermometer an important tool for flooring professionals and building inspectors.
