Infrared Thermal Imaging
Thermal imaging, or thermography technology provides a non-invasive and efficient method for identifying issues and assessing the energy efficiency of your home. Our thermal imaging services provide reliable and professional assessment of your home’s energy efficiency. Our technicians utilize cutting-edge Flir thermal imaging technology to identify potential issues such as energy loss, water damage, pests, and electrical faults.
We deliver detailed and comprehensive thermal imaging reports to help you enhance your home’s energy efficiency and safeguard your investment.
How does thermal imaging work for inspectors?
- Detecting differences in Thermal Density
- Water Infiltration
- Excessive moisture in materials
- Stud / Joist / Beam / Rafter placement and structure
Difference in Temperature & Energy Audits
Thermal imaging can help identify the following issues:
- Insulation and insufficiency/unevenness
- ‘Hot’ electrical panels, breakers, switches and wire connections
- Insufficient Heating / Cooling duct placement/insulation
- Pipe locations
- Pest infestations
- Drafty Doors, Storm Doors
- Leaking Windows, Frames, Seals, Storm Windows, Caulking
- Cold Crawlspace and Attic Space
- Poor Duct Sealing
- Poor Ductwork Insulation
Missing Insulation
Real Finds from Our Thermal Camera
Every one of these problems was completely invisible to the naked eye — and every one was costing the homeowner money or comfort until the thermal camera found it:
The Cold Ceiling
During a winter scan, a large section of living room ceiling read just 54°F while the rest of the room held steady at 70°F. The insulation above it was simply missing — invisible from below, obvious in infrared.
The Skipped Stud Bay
A 16-inch by 8-foot wall cavity that the insulation crew missed before the drywall went up. Once the walls were finished, no one would ever have known — the camera flagged it in seconds.
The Uninsulated Attic Hatch
In a brand-new high-end home, the attic access panel in a child’s bedroom read 56°F on a cold day — no insulation had been installed on it. New construction is not immune to hidden defects.
Small, hidden defects like these quietly drain energy dollars every month — a thermal scan finds them before you buy, or before another season’s bills add up.
