Thermal Imaging

Thermal Imaging

Thermal imaging is a valuable inspection tool that helps identify temperature differences and hidden concerns that may not be visible during a standard visual inspection. By using infrared thermal imaging technology, Wright Choice Property Inspection can help locate possible areas of heat loss, moisture intrusion, insulation gaps, roofing concerns, and electrical hot spots.

Thermal imaging can be especially helpful for identifying potential issues behind walls, ceilings, floors, and other areas that are not easily accessible. While thermal imaging does not see through walls, it can reveal temperature patterns that may indicate moisture, missing insulation, air leaks, or electrical concerns that may require further evaluation.

Thermal imaging can help identify potential concerns such as:

  • Water infiltration, including possible roof leaks when recent rainfall has occurred within the last 24–48 hours
  • Insulation gaps, insufficient insulation, or uneven insulation coverage
  • Cold air infiltration and possible air leaks
  • Stud, joist, beam, and rafter placement or structural patterns
  • Excessive moisture in building materials
  • Electrical hot spots in panels, breakers, switches, wire connections, and electrical drops
  • Heating and cooling duct placement, insulation issues, and possible air leaks
  • Possible pipe locations and hidden plumbing routes
