What can Connecticut Infrared Thermography do for me?                            

An infrared camera inspection measures thermal energy emitted from building materials. Infrared cameras allow us to “see” things with the camera that are invisible to the naked eye. IR cameras take a picture of heat radiation and provide precise temperature measurement of objects.

A Certified Infrared Thermographer can use the camera in many ways to diagnose problems in the building envelope at your home or business:

• IR cameras can help pinpoint loose or missing insulation in the building envelope that cannot be seen behind walls and ceilings. Missing insulation means heat loss, you’ll pay more to heat (and cool) your house.
  Fixing or adding insulation where needed saves money and increases 
  comfort.
• Infrared thermography is useful in finding plumbing problems including moisture hidden behind floors, ceilings, and walls. The camera can spot concealed leaks before they become a major problem, allowing the home owner to take corrective action. Source of water penetration can be located for quick repair.
• IR technology can “see” air penetration into (or out of) a home or building under the right conditions. Ever sit in a room on a cold day and get a chill or find it hard to keep an area of the house warm in winter? A scan with this camera can pinpoint the problem area (doors, windows, walls, vents, etc.), allowing for repair.
• Boilers can develop a “hot spot” before failing or leaking, easily detected with infrared technology. Useful for preventative maintenance.
• Exterior cooling compressors can be scanned to check for over-heating and inefficiency.
• Electrical panels are scanned to locate breakers or other components with “hot spots”, allowing for repair before they become a safety hazard.
