Buying a home is a large purchase and usually a place where many people will stay for a long time. You want to know that everything is going well in the home so having a home inspection is important. Even though it is not required, a home inspection is always highly recommended. There are things that cannot be seen with the naked eye, so hiring an inspector that uses thermal imaging as part of their home inspection is a plus. Thermal imaging measures surface temperatures and can show thermal anomalies. Such as a surface temperature that differs from what is expected. It is a more in-depth investigation that indicates leaks, pests, and electrical issues.
A thermal imaging inspection involves using a FLIR (Forward Looking Infrared) camera, Infrared Camera (IR), or videos to check the outside or inside of a building or home. It looks for water and moisture that may be inside the walls. This is an area an inspector cannot see without opening up the walls. This also makes a home inspection even better because an inspector will notice that something is happening in the home, be able to report and investigate more appropriately. Using this type of technology allows an inspector to see there are issues behind the surface. On the screen, it shows the difference between moisture areas, and dry areas, areas where insulation may be missing.
The most common colors seen on infrared cameras are white, red, yellow, and light colors for warmer to hot areas, and blue to black and darker colors for cooler areas.
