Hello everyone, here is an interesting example of a common weak point. It is highly recommended to check this.


Thermography of a building with color scale and temperature distribution on door, roof, window, and wall.

@ Zaba12: I had that done by a company; the local utility provider had an offer for it. Buying such a device? I think there is something available for the iPhone, but it would not have been suitable for my purposes.
@ Obstlerbaum: Of course, it could have been checked immediately after installation; however, at that time I still fully trusted the "experts" and was not yet on site. The general contractor (company XXX Massivhaus GmbH from Ilmxxxx in Thuringia) and their subcontractors took advantage of that and often did quick, shoddy work. That’s why there is a follow-up inspection now; better after half a year than never...
They have now been given a deadline to fix the issues. I’m curious to see what happens. This time, I will be there and watch closely to see exactly what is done.

It’s fine, I had the same experience with my first build. Good luck with the follow-up work, and don’t cut back on your vacation days – being present regularly and asking questions with interest noticeably improves the quality.

We do. I have no comparison, but with it, for example, we were able to control our underfloor heating without any problems 🙂
