Thermal imaging is a powerful tool our team uses to identify building deficiencies in a non-destructive, non-invasive manner. Using an infrared camera, our thermographers troubleshoot a variety of problems without having to remove any materials – saving building owners time and money.
A thermographic inspection uses infrared imaging to identify insulation deficiencies, air leakage, and moisture intrusion in buildings. When using a blower door with thermal imaging, we can precisely source any air leakage in buildings.
With as little as a 10 degree temperature difference between the interior and exterior, thermal imaging clearly illuminates any areas of missing insulation or gaps that create air leaks – common problems that may ultimately lead to occupant discomfort, energy losses, poor humidity control, and excessive dust and dirt getting into a building. By locating these deficiencies during construction or renovation, teams have the opportunity to correct them and improve the building’s long term performance.
We can also leverage thermographic imagery to scan flat roofs for any areas of water migration into the building structure before construction is complete. This allows repairs to be made before extensive interior damage occurs.
