Predictive/Preventive Maintenance Applications

Building Diagnostics Applications

The primary diagnostic procedure for determining the thermal performance of a building envelope is infrared thermography. It can be used to identify heating and cooling loss due to poor construction, missing or inadequate insulation and moisture intrusion. Correcting the defects plays a significant role in increasing building efficiency and structural integrity.

Thermography can identify surface temperature variations of the building envelope, which relates to problems in the structure, thermal bridging, moisture content and air leakage. Common building diagnostics applications are:

• Roofing surveys
• Energy audits
• Moisture/restoration
• Mold remediation
• Building energy
• Home inspection

Roofing Surveys Detect wet insulation in flat-roof systems quickly and efficiently. Find damaged portions of the roofing structure and repair or replace before the entire roof is contaminated.

Energy Audits Perform infrared energy audits for residential and commercial applications. Increase the thermal efficiency of a home or building by scanning for thermal heat loss and cool infiltration or exfiltration , moisture invasion, concrete integrity and heat ventilation problems.

Moisture/Restoration Accurately detect moisture issues located behind exterior and interior walls, in ceilings or under carpet-covered floors.

Mold Remediation Control mold by finding unknown sources of moisture that would otherwise go undetected. Infrared scanning is the fastest most efficient way to provide 100% moisture detection coverage
