Home Inspections

Expose the hidden issues of the building
Use Thermal Image Cameras for Enhanced Home Inspections
Enhancing building energy efficiency and insulation has become vital for sustainability. Building inspections often struggle to find issues like damaged insulation, air leaks, and moisture intrusion before they escalate. Thermal imaging technology offers a solution, revealing hidden heat, air, and moisture problems. By incorporating thermal imaging cameras, home inspectors can provide superior service, setting themselves apart in the market. This technology also benefits contractors, technicians, and engineers. Thermal imaging is valuable in inspecting various building components, such as HVAC systems, plumbing, electrical, roofing, and structural elements. It can uncover common issues like faulty insulation and moisture problems that are challenging to detect visually.

Detecting heat loss and air infiltration

 

FACTS
Energy efficiency depends heavily on the integrity of a building's envelope, including attics, windows, doors, and more. Air leaks not only cost more money on your heating and cooling bills but are also a source of poor air quality. Buildings that continuously leak air might be susceptible to moisture issues, which can invite things like mold into the building.
BENEFITS
Thermal imaging can help identify where climate-controlled air is escaping or where unconditioned air enters a building unintentionally. And helping owners of residential structures apply corrective action and save energy costs. Customers use HIKMICRO Thermal cameras to make important diagnoses in buildings, helping owners of residential structures apply corrective action to reduce building insurance and improve the environment.

Identify areas with missing or inadequate insulation

 

FACTS
When insulation is missing in walls or rafters, it can cause energy loss and increase heating and cooling costs. It can also create thermal variances that interact with outside weather to create issues such as moisture intrusion and terrible molds.
BENEFITS
HIKMICRO thermal imager can help find areas where insulation is missing, sagging, wet, or damaged, even most of the insulation is hidden behind drywall. If a panel of drywall is not showing a consistent color on the infrared image, this often means there are problems with the insulation.

Detect radiator blockages, water leaks in radiant floor heating, air duct leaks, refrigeration-related problems, and more

 

FACTS
HVAC systems can be extremely complex and require proper maintenance to ensure optimal efficiency and performance. Radiator blockages, water leaks in hydronic radiant floor heating systems, air duct leaks, refrigeration-related problems and more can all lead to costly repairs, increased energy costs, and poor indoor air quality.
BENEFITS
The ability to find and mediate inefficiencies through a building's HVAC system can contribute to overall energy efficiency, especially in buildings where heating, cooling, and plumbing systems exchange thermal energy. Thermal imaging can help you diagnose these problems faster. You'll know the root of the problem sooner, so you can get to work fixing it faster.

Identify Hot, Check Installed Load, and Phase Comparison

 

FACTS
Damaged wires, electrical components, and connections would cause a variety of problems. Faulty wiring or components aging may result in electronic damage due to overload. Electric sparks may cause large-scale fires, which can cause property damage and even civilian injuries. By diagnosing the issue early on, technicians can conduct repairs before a total failure occurs.
BENEFITS
Most electrical problems exhibit a gradual rise in temperature prior to their failure. By making heat visible, HIKMICRO thermal imaging cameras allow technicians to see what cannot be seen with the naked eye. With the electrical fault sites identified, repairs can be made before complete failure occurs, preventing personal injury and property damage.

Detect potential moisture in walls, ceilings, and floors

 

FACTS
Moisture issues can come from a number of both external and internal sources. Commonly include roof leaks, improperly sealed windows, stucco issues, plumbing leaks, tub leaks, etc. Moisture intrusion can lead to structural integrity issues in roofs, floors, ceilings & beams, which in turn can lead to more property damage.
BENEFITS
HIKMICRO Thermal imaging cameras can help identify areas of hidden moisture, which can then be repaired. Water will typically give up its heat at a slower rate than its surrounding materials because of its high thermal capacity, so thermal cameras can see if any areas have accumulated moisture by detecting temperature differences.

Track pests and insects, such as termites, rodents, and more

 

FACTS
Invasion of pests (termites, bees, mice, other rodents, etc.) can damage building structures and even human health. Traditional pest detection methods rely on the patchwork of various pieces of evidence (such as animal feces, chewing noodles, wood rot, etc.), which are more prone to human error.
BENEFITS
The presence of pests can change the normal heat pattern of walls and floors. The concentration of active pest activity can change the surface temperature and thermal pattern of the wall lining, enough for the HIKMICRO thermal imaging camera to detect it as a hot spot.
