    New Build B-Fold doors blue on thermal image - cold bridging?

    Cold bridging, drafts, increased heating costs! I am looking for advice on what the typical thermal performance are of bi-fold doors not to keep explaining what the problem is as I have already mentioned this. My windows are generally showing good on thermal images but bi-fold doors and front...

    Yes trickle vent on bifold and other windows. Also ventilation fans running 24/7 in certain rooms. Certainly could be a partial draft, something is causing the frame to surrounding temperature differential. The glass is not coming up as cold. Looking at other windows they certainly appear to...

    New Build B-Fold doors blue on thermal image - cold bridging?

    The thermal properties of the doors or fitting is in question. New build timber frame property with high levels of insulation and a lager temperature drop between surfaces. Potential for condensation and increased heating costs. The glass has better thermal properties than the frame currently.

Having had a new build survey carried out the thermal images of the bi-fold doors are showing blue i.e. they are cold. I have...
