If it is a suspected roof leak the ideal time to use the infrared camera would be during rainfall or within 24 hours of rainfall.
Infrared roof leak detection equipment.
As a roofing contractor for 38 years we understand how critical accurate electronic leak detection is for our clients.
Infrared technology allows individuals looking for the source of roof leaks to be able to look through the surface of their roof to reveal potential leak sources and trapped moisture within roof assemblies.
Infrared cameras are a tool used by home inspectors and energy auditors for the detection of water and air leaks.
So you have proof of the damage to show insurance companies or other relevant parties we document our findings in official reports that we pass on to you.
If you notice water damage an infrared leak detection may be just what you need to find out what s going on.
An infrared imaging inspection using a thermal imager can scan and detect heat loss missing insulation and energy loss.
Over the years we have used many forms of interpretive testing methods such as infrared thermography capacitance testing hygrometers vector mapping sampling etc and found them all to have too many limitations.
Thermal imaging inspections also find a water leak in a flat roof or walls that can lead to mold.
They sense and translate the radiation from objects into thermal images.
It allows you to see the roof assembly through a different filter that can reveal potential problems and sources for that elusive leak.
