DEFECT IN CEILING CORNER DETECTED BY IR CAMERA
Allied Home Inspections is certified and trained to perform infrared inspections and thermography in Connecticut and New York.
Non-invasive infrared (IR) scanning can be used to aid in the detection of:
 
WATER LEAK BEHIND VINYL SIDING DETECTED BY IR CAMERA
Allied Home Inspections performs infrared (IR) scanning and inspections in Connecticut and NY. We can scan your home to look for hidden mold and moisture problems behind walls and ceilings that may be affecting your health. We can also schedule Connecticut and NY infrared (IR) inspections to help detect roof and plumbing leaks, electrical problems, and missing or improperly installed insulation.

Thermography is the use of an infrared imaging and measurement camera to "see" and "measure" thermal energy emitted from an object. Thermal, or infrared energy, is light that is not visible because its wavelength is too long to be detected by the human eye; it's the part of the electromagnetic spectrum that we perceive as heat. Unlike visible light, in the infrared world, everything with a temperature above absolute zero emits heat. Even very cold objects, like ice cubes, emit infrared. The higher the object's temperature, the greater the IR radiation emitted. Infrared allows us to see what our eyes cannot. Infrared thermography cameras produce images of invisible infrared or "heat" radiation and provide precise non-contact temperature measurement capabilities. Infrared is especially useful for noting temperature variations behind walls. A trained technician can spot problems in homes ranging from water leaking behind walls, rodent and insect infestations, mold colonies hidden in wall cavities, missing insulation, and hidden electrical problems.
 
WET AREA IN INSULATION AND ON FLOOR
 
MOISTURE IN BEDROOM CEILING
Moisture in building materials can destroy structural integrity and nurture mold. The first step in moisture problem remediation is to quickly and accurately locate and remove all sources of moisture. Infrared camera scanning can show you what's wet and what's dry. IR cameras may find the ultimate source with little or no physical disassembly of the premises and minimal disturbance of inhabitants. An IR camera can detect areas of missing, moisture-laden or otherwise damaged insulation in walls, crawlspaces and attics or around doors, windows, and electrical outlets. These defects increase a home's operating costs by allowing cold air to enter the home and heated air to escape in the winter and the reverse in the warmer, summer months. IR can also identify poorly insulated or uninsulated pipes, another source of costly heat loss.
