Abstract

Promoting technological progress is a necessary measure to reducing the energy consumption of buildings and contributing to sustainable energy. It is important, not only to efficiently use heat in the building, but also to reduce energy losses in heat supply networks and heating point. Thermography allows for a more accurate assessment of the state of thermal insulation and can help identify and determine small but important areas of heat loss. The expected effect of additional thermal insulation could be up to 1 % of saved heat energy. However, considering the relatively high temperatures of non-insulated elements and long heating seasons (duration varies up to around 200 days), an economic effect can also be expected.
