Seek Thermal Debuts New Handheld Thermal Imagers for Commercial Trade Professionals

SANTA BARBARA, Calif. — Seek Thermal has announced release of its Seek Shot and Seek ShotPRO — two powerful handheld thermal cameras built for commercial trade professionals.

A previously cost-prohibitive technology, thermal imaging is becoming widely adopted by home and building professionals. Seek has pioneered the next generation of thermal imaging devices sized and priced for every toolbox.

Thermal imaging cameras detect heat, otherwise invisible to the human eye, which can be indicative of serious and costly problems and inefficiencies around a home or building. The technology allows professionals to identify leaks, electrical shorts, mechanical faults and energy loss as a way to assess the health of a structure in a non-destructive manner.

“Building professionals such as HVAC techs, home inspectors, insulators, electricians and general contractors need to easily and efficiently conduct diagnostic work and inspections quickly and safely,” says Tim LeBeau of Seek Thermal. “Seek’s new line of thermal imaging cameras will become one of the most important tools in the toolbox by allowing users to quickly identify leaks, shorts, mechanical faults, radiant floor issues and other inefficiencies that cause lost energy, money and resources.”

New SeekFusion technology combines the diagnostic power of thermal imaging with the context and detail of a visible image. This allows the user to adjust the blend between thermal and visible images and quickly uncover hidden problems. SeekFusion empowers the user to create the perfect photo that tells the whole story.

After capturing photos with Seek Shot, on-device analysis features and reporting templates help complete jobs faster by utilizing professional thermography tools. Users can add spot measurements, temperature boxes, adjust the SeekFusion blend and change color palettes right from the camera. Now post processing of data can be done on the jobsite rather than back at the office, saving valuable time.

Seek Shot’s all-new design brings a large interactive 3.5” color touchscreen to the palm of a professional’s hands and also allows them to stream video over WiFi to a smartphone or tablet for collaboration and remote viewing. Seek Shot is light and compact enough to fit within a person’s pocket and designed to withstand the wear and tear of working in the field.
