10 Cool Uses for a Thermal Camera

A thermal imaging camera can be used for a lot of useful things. In this video I use a Topdon TC004 thermal camera to show you 10 things you can check using one of these devices. All the different ways you can use this thing finally revealed! Such as checking windows, doors, ceilings, walls, floors, insulation, ductwork, water heaters, condensers, water leaks, and more. Besides these 10 ways, there are many more, along with some just-for-fun uses. Hope you enjoy the video and learn something new from this one!

Another great use for thermal cameras is to search for hidden cameras in places like hotel rooms and Air BNBs etc...

I've never used a thermal camera before. After watching your video I now see it is a very useful tool. Thank you Jay, for the tip as always, it's a hot one.😃👍

One more tip/warning: Thieves can use a thermal camera to see which buttons you pressed on a keypad (e.g. door lock, lockbox, car door, or ATM). To prevent this, rub your hand over all the buttons after entering your code.

I love your videos and recommend them all the time

[TheQuark]

One more tip: You can identify any device that’s wasting power if it’s warm while it’s supposed to be off.

I always watch your videos, really interesting, thanks again. Can we use it to find refrigerant leaks in an AC unit?

[ericusman]

I work in an oil product terminal. Can a thermal imaging camera see through a truck carrying oil product?

[koomo]

2:16 this looks as if you have no insulation in the ceiling, at all. Wood is a terrible insulator compared to any common insulation material. The ceiling joists should show a warmer color than the space between joists, even if you only had a couple of inches of blown-in insulation there.

Please do a video on the wiring and operation of a 57t01-843 air handler time delay relay.... thanks

I'm looking into buying a thermal camera to help with sea turtle conservation. I know they are reptiles but think there will still be a temp difference from their bodies and nests and the ocean and beach. Any ideas on this? Thanks

[bigd]

Seems as tho I may need a new I mean tool! 😉

[fredlendzian]

Hey could make a video on why and what makes mobile home furnace and AC are more expensive to work on

[aryana]

Hello mate any chance you could have an advice on how to detect the source of a water leak through the ceiling, am planning to buy a FLIR CX-3

[jerrodl]

Hi Jay,

Thanks for the videos. I'm in St Paul and although I don't think you're here any more, who would you recommend to look into a furnace issue (overheating) here in MN? Have any recommendations?

[vowsdzs]

can you find if something is buried in ground with the camera ?
