Images portrayed are actual images from

Fluke Visual IR Thermometers. Proper

PPE Gear should be worn at all times.

5. Uneven distribution in AC condenser

In this typical AC condenser, the uneven

distribution of heat in the center row may

indicate a potential issue.

6. Inspection of compressor thermal expansion valve

The thermal heat map allows you

to quickly scan the compressor and

determine that the TXV (thermal

expansion valve) to the left appears

to be cold, indicating that it is closed.

4. Potentially faulty cold air damper

Use your visual IR thermometer to see

how well the VAV box is working by

scanning vents. The warm area in this

otherwise cold vent could indicate a

faulty cold air damper.
