What is Infrared Thermal Imaging?

Simply put, it is a picture created by a very sophisticated and expensive camera that senses temperature differences in the materials it scans. It's been used for decades across many fields from commercial and industrial to medical applications.

What does this mean for you?

• It's a HUGE advantage. You've done your research and want more reliable information about the home. This technology will reliably source anomalies such as moisture issues that would normally have gone undetected by a traditional visual inspection. We offer this as an optional service for both home and mold inspections.

Visual Inspection =>  ~ 70% reliability   
Infrared Inspection => ~ 90% reliability

We want the best for our clients!

That's why we went to great expense to become "Infrared Certified" and get the most advanced Infrared and Moisture Detection equipment available for home inspection. It's important to us to continue to be progressive in our industry and do our best by offering the latest technology for our clients.

Here's how it's done

We rely on our training to interpret the images produced by the infrared camera to guide us in revealing anomalies that may be report worthy. This is not always enough. If it's moisture related, the use of a very sensitive moisture meter will help verify this.

The Infrared Trend

It's hard to imagine, but It's estimated that 50% of all inspections within the next two years will include a “Thermal Imaging Scan” of the residence as a component of the inspection. It's no wonder ... considering how beneficial it can be to your home inspection.
