Infrared Scanning

Infrared Thermal Imaging for Added Inspection Visibility

Infrared scanning can help identify temperature differences that may point to moisture concerns, insulation issues, air leaks, electrical hot spots, or other hidden conditions.

What Is Infrared Scanning?

Infrared scanning, also known as thermal imaging, uses a specialized camera to detect temperature differences across surfaces. These temperature differences can sometimes reveal clues about hidden issues that may not be obvious during a standard visual inspection.

Thermal imaging does not see through walls, but it can help identify areas that deserve closer attention. When used properly, it can be a valuable added tool during a home inspection.

Chastain Home Inspections offers infrared scanning for homeowners, buyers, sellers, and real estate transactions throughout Gainesville and North Central Florida.

What Infrared Scanning Can Help Identify

Thermal imaging can provide helpful clues by showing temperature differences that may suggest a closer look is needed.

Moisture Concerns

Temperature differences may help identify areas where moisture could be present behind walls, ceilings, or flooring.

Missing Insulation

Infrared images can sometimes show gaps or inconsistent insulation in accessible areas of the home.

Air Leaks

Thermal imaging may help identify air movement around windows, doors, attic spaces, and other areas.

Electrical Hot Spots

Some electrical issues may show unusual heat patterns that deserve closer investigation by a qualified professional.

HVAC Performance

Thermal imaging may help show temperature differences related to heating, cooling, or air distribution.

Hidden Clues

Infrared scanning provides additional visibility, helping guide the inspection toward areas that may need more attention.
