Moisture Infrared Thermal Imaging
Moisture can cause a variety of problems in industrial facilities, commercial buildings or homes. Whether the moisture originates from building envelope leaks or plumbing leaks, significant damage can result.
When uncontrolled moisture is introduced into a building, mold can begin to grow in as little as 48 hours. This can cause adverse health effects and severe damage to building components. Continuous moisture intrusion or leaks can also cause structural damage.
While Infrared Thermal Imaging cameras are not moisture detectors, they can be used by a trained thermographer to locate thermal patterns resulting from the evaporative cooling effect caused by the presence of moisture. By locating problem areas and correcting them sooner rather than later, thousands of dollars in repair costs can be avoided.
