Thermal Imaging Services

 

If you are experiencing water problems in your home or building, the main concern is to find out where it's coming from, and stop it.

We understand this, and we have the tool to help. Thermal Imaging. There is nothing like thermal imaging to find the cause of your problem. This amazing tool can detect changes in temperature by less than .05 of a degree. We can see why a certain wall may be a little bit colder than the one next to it. We can help find your water problem and normally, without any damage to the drywall or structure.

What is Thermography?

Thermography is the use of an infrared imaging and measurement camera to "see" and "measure" thermal energy emitted from an object. Thermal, or infrared energy, is light that is not visible because its wavelength is too long to be detected by the human eye; it's the part of the electromagnetic spectrum that we perceive as heat. Unlike visible light, in the infrared world, everything with a temperature above absolute zero emits heat. Even very cold objects, like ice cubes, emit infrared. The higher the object's temperature, the greater the IR radiation emitted. Infrared allows us to see what our eyes cannot. Infrared thermography cameras produce images of invisible infrared or "heat" radiation and provide precise non-contact temperature measurement capabilities. Nearly everything gets hot before it fails, making infrared cameras extremely cost-effective, valuable diagnostic tools in many diverse applications. And as industry strives to improve manufacturing efficiencies, manage energy, improve product quality, and enhance worker safety, new applications for infrared cameras continually emerge.

Thermographic Inspections

Energy auditors may use thermography—or infrared scanning—to detect thermal defects, air and water leakage into building envelopes.

How They Work
Thermography measures surface temperatures by using infrared video and still cameras. These tools see light that is in the heat spectrum. Images on the video or film record the temperature variations of the building's skin, ranging from white for warm regions to black for cooler areas. The resulting images help the auditor determine whether insulation is needed. They also serve as a quality control tool, to ensure that insulation has been installed correctly.

A thermographic inspection is either an interior or exterior survey. The energy auditor decides which method would give the best results under certain weather conditions. Interior scans are more common, because warm air escaping from a building does not always move through the walls in a straight line. Heat loss detected in one area of the outside wall might originate at some other location on the inside of the wall. Also, it is harder to detect temperature differences on the outside surface of the building during windy weather. Because of this difficulty, interior surveys are generally more accurate because they benefit from reduced air movement.

What we do with our Thermal Imaging Services

  • Through visual inspection of the interior and exterior of the building
  • Start scanning the problem areas trying to see the possible entry or "issue" point
  • Start a plan to solve your problem and set up a through list of things to be done and a written estimate for all work
  • We do some of the repairs ourselves, other repairs we can recommend some professionals, but we do not use"network parteners"

What other uses does Thermal Imaging have?

  • Finding Electrical Problems
  • Missing Insulation in Walls
  • Roof Leaks, Water and Air
  • Automobile Leaks
  • Energy Efficiency

 

If we were inside this basement and the floor was covered with carpet, we could most likely isolate the point of entry and figure out what problem is causing the water to enter the home. Then we can set a course of action to stop it.

 

After the Thermal Imaging has helped locate your problem, you may need some Water Damage Services
Drying & Dehumidification
 
Mold Remediation
  • Discuss with you the health Issues and risks associated with mold
  • We locate the source of the problem
  • Determine what materials have been effected
  • Mold lives off of wood, paper, drywall, and insulation, they provide food sources for molds when given a little moisture
  • Safely & properly remove any affected materials and properly & legally dispose of them
  • Get more Mold Information
