About Infrared Thermal Imaging
Infrared is an advanced non-destructive technology that allows me to show you things about your home that no one can show you with conventional inspection methods. I am specifically trained and certified to use this powerful technology as it relates to home and building inspections. I have extensive field experience after performing over 600 inspections and difficult diagnostic cases with the FLIR infrared camera.
An infrared inspection can identify and document:
· electrical faults before they cause a fire.
· overloaded and undersized circuits.
· circuit breakers in need of immediate replacement.
· missing, damaged, and/or wet insulation.
· heat loss and air infiltration in walls, ceilings, floors, windows and doors.
· water and moisture intrusion that could lead to mold.
· possible pest infestation.
· hidden roof leaks, before they cause serious damage.
· air conditioner compressor leaks.
· under fastening and/or missing framing members.
· structural defects.
· broken seals in double pane windows.
· energy loss and efficiency.
· dangerous flue leaks.
· damaged and/or malfunctioning radiant heating systems.
· unknown plumbing leaks.
· overheated equipment.
A picture is worth a thousand words:
Thermal imaging better determines the actual problem as opposed to merely identifying symptoms. I include this visual documentation within your inspection report providing hard proof in color. Have me perform a thermal inspection on the home or commercial property that you own, or are buying, building, selling or leasing.
