IR monitoring in swgr
(OP)
Has anyone had any experience with an installed IR monitoring system (Like Exertherm). The concept seems great, I just have not spoken to anyone who has a system installed.
Any problems encountered?
Is it worth the initial investment compared to annual IR scanning?

RE: IR monitoring in swgr
If you do, be prepared to do maintenance on the camera about once a year. The cryocoolers for the high-end systems are only rated for about 10,000 hrs of life.
Now an uncooled bolometer camera might be a better choice, as there is no mechanical wearout failure.

Apparantly they are popular in the UK and are just hitting the market in the US.
