Thermal Imaging

Due to considerable limitations, we do not regard Infrared Camera as the main inspection tool (specially for leaky building diagnosis):

  1. It is highly weather dependent,
  2. Its accuracy largely affected by mirrors, furniture and reflective items around targets
  3. In many situations, there is little if any relationships between temperature and moisture
Therefore we do not charge for using infrared camera during inspections. It is simply one of varied tools we used to assist our inspection.

It occasionally very useful when we check plumbing leak and flooding issue. Infra-red scanning can quickly locate plumbing leak source, but again not always.

Remember the best tool in house inspection - experience.
