Infrared Scan
Our Infrared Scan deploys high-quality digital infrared cameras to identify water leaks, electrical problems, and energy loss issues.
To See Is To Believe
The human eye can’t measure temperature differences, and in some situations, our eyes just aren’t good enough for a visual inspection.
Infrared technology helps inspectors identify water-related issues (plumbing leaks, roof leaks, exterior water intrusion), electrical issues (overloaded circuits), and energy loss issues (insulation).
Temperature differences, imperceptible to the human eye, become evident through this technology, providing insights beyond the capability of traditional visual inspections.
With infrared, we discover “hidden” problems in about 15% of all our residential and commercial inspections.
We’re Infrared Specialists
It's very difficult for untrained infrared users to develop accurate conclusions. That’s why all our inspectors complete rigorous classroom and field training to become Certified Real Estate Thermographers, and we outfit our inspectors with high-quality IR cameras.
Our Recommendation
It is our expert opinion that ALL inspections should be done with infrared technology; however, we are aware that some buyers are on a tight budget and others may not need an Infrared Scan. Therefore, we opted to offer this as an additional service instead of building it into our inspection price. This allows us to put the options in your hands.
What's Included in Your Inspection
We use infrared cameras to inspect the interior of the building.
We scan for temperature differentials, which can reveal water intrusion, electrical issues, and/or poor insulation. If we can remove the electrical panel, the inspector will evaluate the components for signs of overheating.
For water-related issues, we confirm moisture with high-quality moisture meters.
