The main need for thermal mapping of areas, combined with international Good Storage Practices and Good Manufacturing Practices (GDP), is to verify the homogeneity and thermal stability of the environment through temperature records and, based on these records, identify the most critical, hottest, and coldest points, thus facilitating decision-making regarding routine monitoring and aiding in structural adjustments.
The thermal study must be carried out in accordance with applicable regulations:
Key points to be respected for the study include:
Climatic conditions can have a direct impact on the results, therefore it is recommended that the thermal mapping study be carried out in the most critical seasons of the year, with one thermal mapping in summer and one thermal mapping in winter.
