Temperature Measurement & Low E Paints

When performing IR in a building it is now even more advisable to check the emissivity of the wall and ceiling surfaces if temperature measurement is going to be done.

There are currently paints being sold as low emissivity that are touted as energy saving approaches. They may well be, but they will certainly affect how your camera sees the wall! So, if you need T measurements, be safe and sure — check the emissivity first!
