Infrared Thermal Imaging


Infrared imaging provides important information relating to otherwise inaccessible areas of a residential building. Infrared detects extremely small but crucial differences in temperature from one area of a house to another. These temperature variations show up on the camera’s view screen as “cold” or “hot” spots, which reveal hidden problems that often cannot be detected in the course of a traditional visual inspection.

 

These problems may include:

 Faulty wiring, breakers and fuses  Hidden moisture intrusion
 The moisture sources of mold  Pipe and duct work leaks
 Roof and ceiling leaks  Foundation cracks
 Heat/energy loss  Structural concerns
 Missing insulation  Ventilation problems

 

Foreclosed Properties that are fixed up by Banks cover up moisture damaged walls, electrical fire hazard issues.

What You Can't See May Be Costing you unforseen repairs.

" Thermal Infrared Inspection can help find Hidden Damages "

 

With the Thermal Infrared Inspection Survey, we can quickly identify problem areas that can't be seen by the naked eye - eliminating destructive probing methods. Our infrared survey inspection will pinpoint not only hidden water leaks, current moisture damage but also energy leaks and electrical "hot spots".

 

Our complete infrared home diagnosis will:


* Detect water leaks and their possible origin - walls, ceiling, attic, flooring, roof.


* Detect possible plumbing issues such as leaks - blockages.


* Detect electrical issue which can cause potential fire hazards.


* Detect moisture that cannot be physically reached with moisture meters.


* Check energy efficiency - for heating & cooling loss through windows, walls and insulation.


Results are captured and documented into professional reports, providing tangible proof of our findings that can become important for repair verification.

 

The image at right shows insulation defects in a new home. IR cameras can quickly locate these defects within wall or ceiling spaces. This non-intrusive technique can help solve living space comfort issues, HVAC problems, plus others. IR is also a powerful tool when attempting to solve high energy cost issues

The image at right shows water behind this wall. Locating the source of moisture intrusion is a primary goal of the IR survey. No more time or money wasted tearing out walls or ceilings just to locate the point of intrusion.

Air infiltration / exfiltration and how it affects living spaces can be seen with the IR imager. The images at left show a defective AC return air duct in a single story home. Hot air is being drawn down and into the duct from the attic, causing the system to run more than normal and perform poorly. Inspection revealed poor sealing of the duct. This defect was easy to fix once found
