INFRARED (THERMOGRAPHY) SCAN SERVICE

WHAT IS AN INFRARED (THERMOGRAPHY) SCAN SERVICE?

A non-contact inspection that uses a professional specialized camera and temperature differentiation to assist in detecting electrical defects, water and air temperature changes, air and moisture intrusion, and leaks.

REASONS TO OBTAIN AN INFRARED SCAN SERVICE:

1. Identify Hidden Electrical Hazards

  • Detect Overheating: Scans can pinpoint overloaded circuits, loose or corroded connections, and failing breakers that could lead to fires.

  • Maintain Safety: By finding these "hot spots" early, you can prevent electrical system failures and ensure the safety of occupants.

  • Compliance: Many safety regulations (like NFPA 70B) and insurance providers now require periodic IR electrical inspections.

2. Uncover Moisture and Plumbing Issues

  • Find Hidden Leaks: IR cameras detect temperature differences caused by moisture, revealing active roof leaks or plumbing leaks behind walls without tearing them apart.

  • Prevent Mold: Early detection of moisture helps mitigate conditions conducive to mold, fungus, and wood decay.

3. Improve Energy Efficiency

  • Locate Energy Loss: Scans identify areas where heat is escaping or cold air is entering due to missing or damaged insulation and air leaks around windows or doors.

  • HVAC Performance: They can find disconnections in ductwork or vents and identify issues with in-floor heating systems.

4. Predictive Maintenance for Business and Industry

  • Reduce Downtime: IR scans are performed while equipment is running under normal loads, meaning there is no need to shut down operations for the inspection.

  • Equipment Longevity: Regular scanning of motors, bearings, and transformers helps identify mechanical friction or thermal breakdown before a total breakdown occurs.

5. Essential Due Diligence for Residential & Commercial Real Estate Buyers

  • Verify Repairs: It can confirm if previously reported issues have been properly remediated before you close on a property.

  • Detect Pests: Large nests from rodents or other pests can sometimes be identified by the heat signatures they emit.
