In industrial/ commercial units, air tightness tests can fail not due to the building fabric, but due to leaky roller doors. Using retrotec fans (-ve pressure), and thermal imaging (and smoke - not shown) leakage points can readily be located. #airtightnesstestingscotland #blowerdoortestscotland

Every picture tells a story- Solid walls, 1950s solid radiator pipes, student halls, single glazing, no radiator valves-all or nothing! So windows open in February to purge heat. Radiator pipes so hot you can see them through the walls! #thermalsurveyscotland #airtestscotland www.ThermalimageUK.com

Fantastic few days on Fair Isle carrying out air tightness test on superb new Fair Isle Bird Observatory. Amazing scenery & wildlife, friendly locals & staff -I can't recommend a visit highly enough. #fairislebirdobservatory #airtightnesstestingscotland #retrotec #visitscotland #UKsRemotestAirTest

Found this old post where the merits and pitfalls of thermal imaging buildings is discussed. Worth a read... www.greenbuildingadvisor.com/article/an-i...

Air leakage detection - negative pressure, warmer outside than inside #retrotec Latest technology, top quality fans from retrotec , and a little lateral thinking. #airtightnessglasgow #airtightnessedinburgh #airtightnessscotland

The Government has sold the last of its shares in NatWest which it nationalised in the 2008 Financial Crisis. The Government has lost £10bn. Natwest is making £7.2bn profit a year. We are being robbed NatWest needs to pay back every penny.

This is quite impressive from one of the UK’s largest house builders They should roll it out across the whole country www.businessgreen.com/news/4413943...

Scottish Government ministers have the power to stop Flamingo Land from scarring our national park with their mega-resort. Yet they're refusing to do so. It's an intervention they made to save Donald Trump's Aberdeenshire golf course. So why not now to save Loch Lomond?

The disconnect tween UK public love of nature & Tory/Lab/Reform policies is bizarre. All our "national parks" get truly derisory £60m annual budget. One new car Thames crossing £9BILLION funding. 🙈🙈😪

Thermal Image UK is proud to be a member and supporter of the @passivhaustrust.bsky.social Building new homes to Passivhaus standard, can be the single action that reduces the most carbon over time relative to the social barriers to change. It should be the #1 climate action globally.

🚨 WE ARE RECRUITING 🚨 Could you be our Mass Lobby Coordinator? We are looking for a highly organised and effective coordinator to oversee the planning and delivery of a mass climate lobby of MSPs in September 2025. Find out more and apply here: www.stopclimatechaos.scot/stop-climate...

Perth and Kinross residents are not interested in having volunteer-led library services. I will be taking up the Minister's offer to meet and discuss the definition of 'adequate provision' of library services.

Programme For Government 2025 - a new set of climate promises by the Scottish Government. What about the old promises from previous years? - 2019 - Nicola Sturgeon "£500m for bus infrastructure" - now scrapped. "Motorway bus lanes" - now scrapped. "World leading climate targets" - now scrapped. ?

Scotland’s Programme for Government: Too little, too slowly. After a string of climate U-turns, this was a key test and it falls short. “We need faster delivery - and it’s time polluters paid for the damage they cause.” Mike Robinson, SCCS See our full response ➡️ bit.ly/434mci6

Greta Thunberg, she's right.

Full house for @rsno.bsky.social John Williams concert in Glasgow! Excellent perspective from choir stalls - last seats available!

Community climate action- 3 x 57 seater Mercedes Tourismo coaches moving 15,000 pax per month between Strathaven, Stonehouse & Glasgow-taking thousands of car journeys off the road www.CAStrathaven.org Why has the Scottish Government given up on transport climate targets? Together we can do this!

How do you get from A to B in your town? Interesting chart from cities and continents around the world.

I have never seen a situation so dismal that Tony Blair couldn't make it worse.

Can someone explain to our former prime minister Tony Blair that carbon capture and storage does not effing work. It’s the shoddiest bit of crap misinformation from the fossil lobby that Tony is clearly benefiting from . . . allegedly.

Last winter, we recorded this sub-zero temperature - INDOORS - in a house in Scotland. The thermal image highlights the effects of a cold external draught from under the fridge. www.thermalmageuk.com #airtightnesstestglasgow #colddraught #airtightglasgow #airtightscotland

Hey - @joanireid.com - why is Kier announcing a new ‘Carbon Capture & Storage’ project in Wales? It doesn’t work! Building energy efficiency, public transport & active travel is where the focus should be. Opening new runways, and false CC&S are the wrong priorities! Thanks

Nice!! Solar independence!🌄 On a grey rainy London April day,I not only covered all my energy needs (no gas & electric imports),filled up solar battery AND still exported 3kwh to national grid!

For thermography, it's worth checking the credentials of the surveying company and surveyor - and the PCN register from BINDT is a good place to start. www.bindt.org/Certificatio...

Houses too. We get the sealing guys in to make the house airtight enough for MVHR, install the system, then need to get the sealing guys back. From www.gov.uk/government/publications/demonstration-of-energy-efficiency-potential-deep

Fit-out contractors adding ventilation to a shell unit, surprisingly often cut a square hole for a round duct, without questioning the impact on air tightness, or sealing it again. In Scotland, retail premises are tested at shell stage & again after fit-out specifically to pick up issues like this.

Thermal Image UK is a member of the Passivhaus Trust @passivhaustrust.bsky.social and fully supports the ambition to increase the number of houses built to this energy efficient standard. Warm, comfortable, draught free homes that are low cost to heat -what's not to like! www.thermalimageuk.com #

Great Green conference in Stirling yesterday. It's time to #TaxtheSuperRich for public services

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.” It costs less to house people.

Who's just been for a swim @edinburghzoo.bsky.social ?

Michael Gove used to ban teachers from their profession for life for drug use. He got caught taking cocaine and a few years later he's getting a peerage? It's as clear as day that drug laws are just there to punish the working class.

When the CWI (Cavity Wall Insulation) installer doesn't inject quite enough insulation, you get this honeycomb pattern. Pretty, but will lead to random cold spots, potentially encouraging condensation...

Unsealed dry-lining is a big problem in new houses, resulting in excessive heat loss, uncomfortable cold spots and increased heating costs. When will @mairimcallan.bsky.social - & ScotGov climate & building teams act?
