What is Certified Residential Thermographer (CRT)?

• Introduction to thermal imaging and IR Certification for Residential Infrared use. No experience in thermography is necessary!
• Collect quality data, accurate temperature readings, and understand the benefits of using thermal IR in home inspection applications.
• Interpret thermograms and make informed decisions using heat transfer concepts to analyze images, and see the latest in report generation and database software.
• Avoid costly mistakes- learn to distinguish between hot spots and reflections, direct vs. indirect readings, and qualitative vs. quantitative thermography.

What is Infrared Moisture Detection (IMD)?

• A 1-day certificate course to learn how to effectively utilize an infrared camera to identify moisture in building components under varying conditions
• The IMD is now Day 1 of the 2-day CRT Certification class
• The IMD can be scheduled as a stand alone 1-day course

The CRT class is geared to the new infrared camera owner and user and the course focuses on thermal imager use for Home & Building Inspectors. Students complete the course with a much stronger understanding of Thermal Imaging capabilities and applications as well as the confidence and competence to immediately put that knowledge to use. Infrared is a powerful tool that helps you find, identify, quantify and communicate today what would be a much bigger issue to your customer tomorrow.
