Black & Decker Thermal Leak Detector
Item #: TLD100
Black & Decker's Thermal Leak Detector can help you discover where the energy leaks are in your home. Identify problem areas around drafty windows and doors, and uncover hidden leaks and insulation "soft spots" around electrical outlets, recessed lights, and along floor molding.
To use, direct the detector's infrared light at a wall to establish the reference temperature. Move the infrared light along surfaces in your house, and when the measured surface temperature deviates by 1, 5 or 10 degrees Fahrenheit (user adjustable) relative to the reference temperature, the light will change to red or blue to indicate a hot or cold spot.

Easy-to-Read Color Coding and Screen
The Thermal Leak Detector makes it easy to monitor your home's energy efficiency by finding areas that let heat out and cold air in. Simply set the detector's temperature tolerances to one, five, or 10 degrees and scan the light across the area you want to inspect. The light will change to red for warmer spots and blue for cooler spots to detect air leaks in both warm and cool weather. The detector also displays temperatures in either Fahrenheit or Celsius on the LCD screen. Check for drafts or leaks around your fireplace, recessed lighting, electrical outlets, along floor molding, or any place that may have improper seals, caulking, or seams that aren't immediately visible. An included booklet gives you tips and instructions on how to seal leaks and improve insulation.
Cut Energy Bills and Improve Your Home's Efficiency
Sealing the leaks and improving insulation in your home can help you save as much as 20 percent on your heating and cooling bills. An efficient, greener home will stay cooler in summer and warmer in winter, increasing its resale value.
