In our latest article, we break down the key items that should be included in your daily TIC check-out to ensure your camera is ready for the fireground. Don’t leave performance to chance.

Thermal Imaging TIPS FOR SUCCESS #3: Be properly trained and educated on YOUR Thermal imaging camera: In our experience, most of the fire service have had 3 hours or less of hands-on training regarding thermal imaging. 92% of firefighters surveyed revealed that it would be very helpful if TIC manufacturers would provide a training system in an electronic format. In addition, over 40% of firefighters have never heard of NFPA 1408-Standard for Training Fire Service Personnel in the Operation, Care, Use, and Maintenance of Thermal Imagers (2020). This standard outline the proper procedures, guidelines, and recommendations for training on thermal imaging cameras. A word of caution to those who dismiss the NFPA standard. This standard uses the word “shall” quite often such as the following examples: • 4.1.1 A TI training program shall be implemented. • 4.2.1 The AHJ shall establish written policies for TI training that meet the requirements of this standard. • 4.2.2 The policy shall address the training requirements for types of incidents where TIs may be used. • 4.2.7 Members shall be provided with TI training and education before being permitted to operate TIs per AHJ. • 4.2.7.1* Before new or unfamiliar TIs are placed into service, training and education relating to those imagers shall be provided for all affected members. • 4.2.8 Members shall be provided with classroom education and hands-on familiarization in TI functions before being permitted to operate TIs in IDLH atmospheres. Tom Zind summarizes it well in the following quote: ‘Deploying the technology improperly, inaccurately interpreting the raw information it produces, and even failing to create an action plan that supports it can render results confusing at best or useless at worst.’ In summary, if a fire department has thermal imaging cameras in use; they shall provide proper training on these devices that meet or exceed NFPA 1408. And NFPA 1001 (1010)-The Standard for Firefighter Professional Qualifications has been updated to require that all firefighters receive thermal imaging training. An industrial thermologist who works in the field must have a minimum of 32 hours of training on TICs to maintain a Level I Thermography Certification. However, firefighters often are placed in dangerous conditions without proper training, and they are expected to overcome this educational deficiency. This is gross negligence on the part of the fire department.
