A friend of mine is considering starting a part-time company doing digital thermography looking for heat loss, water leaks etc... etc...
There doesn't seem to be anyone else in the business locally, and he has contacts in the insurance, construction & renovation businesses.
Does anyone here work with this technology? More specifically, does anyone here make a living solely off digital thermography? If so, what are your experiences? Where is the "meat" of the business, residential or commercial? Insurance? How do you bill... hourly, flat rate for services?
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

I considered doing the same thing. Depending on how hard you are willing to work and how accurate your reports were, a man could make a very very good living being a Thermoanalysist.
I'm looking to start a business group in my company that would do this for customers in manufacturing facilities.
Profitable? at $1000 to $2000 a throw, after you bleed out the capital costs and training/software, what do you think....
