Abstract
Ten roofs in Concord, N.H., were surveyed for wet insulation using a hand-held infrared camera. Suspected wet areas were marked on the roof with spray paint and roof samples were obtained to verify wet and dry conditions. Recommendations for maintenance and repair were made on infrared findings, water contents and visual examination. An incremental economic study is presented to serve as a guide in determining the most cost-effective approach.
