When you live where the air can literally hurt your face in the winter, and frozen pipes can happen in a matter of minutes not hours, a good quality infared temperature gun had been on my want list for quite some time.

The first winter I started into property management I didn’t want to spend any more money than I had to on tools or gear, so I went without. I would try to touch, tap and flex any pipes that were frozen attempting to figure out where the blockage was. This lead to a metric ton of wasted time, trying to find where the ice blockage was.

So this last winter when the temps turned deadly again, I had a trailer I look after that tends to get slightly frozen when the overnights hit -40. So this time I made up my mind I was getting a Temp Gun and I ended up settling on the ETEKCITY INFARED TEMPERATURE GUN. I kid you not when I say it was truly a game changer for me. This combined with a good quality heat gun took what used to take two or three hours and turned it into a 15 minute Job.

The ETEKCITY INFARED TEMPERATURE GUN allows me to point it at a potentially frozen pipe from a 6 feet away with its laser indicator and trace the pipe back until i find the frozen spot. It allows me to not waste time getting into tight spaces until I know where I need to be and how I am going to fix it.

I didn’t go with a top of the line brand name Temp Gun simply because this was my first go at one. If you are looking for one in this price ranger there are dozens all branded differently that look exactly the same on Amazon and probably come from the same factories.
