What is IR
An infrared camera is a non-contact device that detects infrared energy (heat) and converts it into an electronic signal, which is then processed to produce a thermal image on a video monitor and perform temperature calculations. Temperature differences between building materials can reveal issues that would not normally be seen and detects issues without the need for destructive testing.
Uses for Infrared Camera Inspections
Find moisture intrusion, building envelope leaks, missing insulation, and more. Our infrared (IR) camera scans your building to discover conditions not visible to the naked eye. IR cameras are one of the most advanced diagnostic tools available for building inspectors today; Luke Rabun is a Level I Certified thermographer in building investigations.
Infrared cameras can reveal problems such as:
- Hidden moisture intrusion
- Roof leaks
- Missing insulation
- Electrical hot spots
- HVAC duct leaks
- The moisture source of microbial growth
- Energy/Heat loss
