What is Thermal Imaging?

Thermal imaging is a non-invasive, non-destructive way of evaluating conditions below the surface. Because everything from faulty wiring to the presence of termites to mold to wet insulation affects the surrounding temperature, heat-sensitive photography can reveal these and other issues that just cannot be seen by the naked eye or with conventional or digital photography. Thermal imaging can document a hidden fault for corrective action or to prioritize repairs.  For an energy audit we can show exactly where cold air is entering the home or heat is being lost, along with energy dollars. We can document the safety of a property by revealing dangerous electrical hot spots or the presence of harmful mold. Thermal photography allows us deliver a more thorough and in-depth report.  It can show what lies beneath the surface.
