What Is A Thermal Imaging Inspection?
Access The Power of Thermal Imaging
A thermal imaging inspection uses a camera that reads surface temperature across walls, ceilings and floors. It’s a service that allows property inspection specialists like the team at Site Inspections to conduct non-invasive sweeps of your home.
Thermal imaging can detect hidden issues such as moisture intrusion, and it does so without cutting into the lining. A temperature difference marks an area worth checking, not a confirmed defect.
Why Would I Want A Thermal Imaging Inspection?
UNCOVER HIDDEN PROBLEMS
Thermal imaging technology offers you the opportunity to look into aspects of your home that aren’t easy to get to. It’s non-invasive: the camera reads the wall surface, so you avoid the expense of opening the wall up. It works best where there is a temperature difference to read, and some leaks will not show one. Thermal imaging can be used to identify water leaks and hotspots relating to your plumbing.
Not addressing these issues early could lead to
- Structural damage with wood rot, mould growth, and weakening of the home’s structural integrity
- Health issues as mould and mildew resulting from moisture intrusion can lead to respiratory problems
