Thermography is a powerful tool used to identify and measure infrared radiation emitted by objects. In home inspections, we can use thermal imaging technology to detect hidden issues that may not be visible to the naked eye. For example, we can identify areas of moisture intrusion, electrical hotspots, and air leaks, which can lead to more severe problems if left unaddressed. By detecting these issues early, we can save you time and money in the long run by preventing costly repairs. While thermal imaging is not a substitute for a thorough home inspection, it can be a valuable addition to your inspection process.
*The above window has failed due to the seal failing. At this stage, this condition cannot be seen with the naked eye
*The active water leak above was confirmed with a moisture meter
