A thermal imaging inspection uses advanced infrared technology to identify hidden issues within a home that are not visible during a standard visual inspection. This service adds an extra layer of insight, helping homeowners and buyers detect concerns early—before they become costly problems.

A thermal imaging inspection, also known as infrared thermography, detects temperature differences on surfaces throughout a home. These temperature variations can indicate underlying issues such as moisture intrusion, insulation deficiencies, electrical overheating, or air leakage.

Thermal imaging is a non-invasive method that enhances the inspection process without damaging walls, ceilings, or finishes.

Moisture trapped behind walls or ceilings can lead to mold growth and structural damage. Thermal imaging helps identify moisture intrusion early.

Missing or damaged insulation and air leaks can reduce comfort and increase energy costs. Thermal imaging highlights areas where heat is escaping.

Overheating electrical components may indicate overloaded circuits, loose connections, or potential fire hazards.

Early detection allows homeowners to address issues before they escalate into major repairs.

A thermal imaging inspection may help identify:

• Moisture intrusion behind walls or ceilings
• Missing or damaged insulation
• Air leaks and thermal bridging
• Electrical hot spots and overheating components
• HVAC inefficiencies
• Areas of abnormal temperature variation
   

Thermal imaging is used as a diagnostic tool and works best when combined with a standard home inspection.

• Thermal imaging identifies temperature differences, not specific defects
• Findings may require further evaluation or confirmation
• Environmental conditions can affect results
• Thermal imaging does not replace a full home inspection
   

The inspection provides valuable insight, not guarantees.

A thermal imaging inspection is recommended if you want to:

• Detect hidden moisture or insulation issues
• Improve energy efficiency and comfort
• Identify potential electrical concerns
• Gain a deeper understanding of your home’s condition
   

This service is especially useful for older homes, new construction, or properties with known moisture or energy concerns.

Thermal imaging adds clarity to the inspection process by revealing conditions that cannot be seen with the naked eye.
