INFRARED AT EVERY INSPECTION
As an InterNACHI® Infrared Certified® Thermography Inspector, I use an infrared camera in every inspection, giving me the ability to see things other inspectors can't.
We use a state-of-the-art infrared camera to find problems that aren’t always apparent to the naked eye. An IR camera translates the heat signatures of objects into colors on a gradient scale, with higher temperatures appearing as lighter colors, and lower temperatures and wet areas appearing as darker colors. By evaluating these images, we can detect sources of energy loss, locate areas of moisture intrusion, pinpoint dangerous hot spots in the electrical system, and uncover other problems, such as wood-destroying pest and rodent infestations, as well as flue leaks in the chimney, which can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.

InterNACHI® Infrared Certified® Thermography Inspector
My clients often seek assistance with water stains on their ceilings, wanting to pinpoint the source of the issue. While thermography can detect water presence, it's most effective when combined with a quality moisture meter. I investigate attics for roof leaks, HVAC duct condensation, and pipe issues. However, the camera alone isn't magic – it provides clues that when combined with other data, identify defects.
A thermal imaging camera is a valuable tool, but proper usage requires training. I'm certified by InterNACHI® and trained in building science, understanding how water and heat move. I grasp the physics, equipment, and applications of thermal imaging.
Thermal imaging detects temperature variations. It's used to evaluate the building envelope, exposing energy loss, moisture, electrical problems, and structural issues.
My infrared camera reveals heat, not just shapes and colors. Its value lies in accurate usage and interpretation. Owning a camera doesn't make me a thermographer – expertise does.
