WE SEE WHAT OTHERS CAN’T
Infrared Thermal Imaging or Thermography is an advanced non-invasive technology that allows QCI to show you things about your home that no other home inspectors can show you with conventional inspection methods. Our Thermographic Camera detects radiation in the infrared range of the electromagnetic spectrum and produce images of that radiation. Since infrared radiation is emitted by all objects based on their temperatures, thermography makes it possible to “see” things beyond the capability of the naked eye. Our state of the art equipment allows us to see the slightest variations in temperature and detect problems that would go unnoticed by other inspectors.
An infrared inspection can identify and document:
- electrical faults before they cause a fire.
- overloaded and undersized circuits.
- circuit breakers in need of immediate replacement.
- missing, damaged, and/or wet insulation.
- heat loss and air infiltration in walls, ceilings, floors, windows and doors.
- water and moisture intrusion that could lead to mold.
- possible pest infestation.
- hidden roof leaks, before they cause serious damage.
- air conditioner compressor leaks.
- under fastening and/or missing framing members.
- structural defects.
- broken seals in double pane windows.
- energy loss and efficiency.
- dangerous flue leaks.
- damaged and/or malfunctioning radiant heating systems.
- unknown plumbing leaks.
- overheated equipment.
Without a Thermal Camera, your inspector may overlook costly leaks in A/C ductwork:
