Insulation
Damaged, missing or wet insulation costs can severely increase heating or cooling costs. Older buildings are particularly problemmatic, since building codes for older buildings did not require thermal insulation in exterior walls. Trraditional inspections are very limited in their ability to see missing or damaged insulation.
Infrared technologies are particularly useful in finding improperly installed or insufficient insulation in ceilings and walls. For example, a roof inspection with a thermal imaging camera and related technologies will quickly identify moisture between the roof membrane and the insulation. The camera clealy depicts the situation in
cavity walls and lofts by revealing temperature differences through colour changes. Improperly insulated HVAC ducting can cause condensation to drip inside the walls of the attic and crawlspaces.
Whether you are purchasing, selling, or maintaining a property, an inspection conducted with our infrared technologies will save you some serious money.
