About Us

Thermal Image UK was formed in February 2008, and specialises in thermal imaging and air tightness testing.

An independent company, based in South Lanarkshire, we are dedicated to reducing energy loss from both domestic and commercial buildings throughout Scotland and the North of England.

We service various air permeability requirements, from early advisory tests to final certification, and using the full range of Retrotec blower door fans, from small 300 series fans to the large powerful 6000 series fans, we test all sizes of property from large and complex buildings to single houses, including Passivhaus builds.

Having invested in the highest resolution thermal imaging equipment commercially available in the UK (NEC's TH9260), we can record detailed thermal images, even on large buildings, and we automatically record comparative daylight images, and other image information, providing an accurate visual representation of heat loss issues.
