Thermography Wall Inspection When it comes to inspecting your walls, we have come a long way from simple stud finders. Using our infrared thermographic cameras takes your wall inspections to a whole new level. Using this advanced technology we can easily help you locate wiring, pipes, ducts, drainage pipes, and just about anything else you can think of. Wall Inspections Visit: www.thermoelite.ca
During a home or commercial premises inspection, much attention has to be paid to the walls. Those walls contain most of the essential systems of the building. Behind those walls, there are water pipes, electricity cables, HVAC systems, just to name a few. A wall inspection encompasses investigation of the condition of all these systems and the structural integrity of the wall itself. Infrared thermographic inspection is one of the most revolutionary technologies being used today in building inspections. We use the technology to investigate the condition of homes and business premises and offer recommendations of the best solutions possible. Infrared thermographic imaging can help detect all kinds of structural flaws within your walls. It will also detect any structural or functional problems with the pipes and cables in the walls. We are a team of experienced infrared thermographic inspection specialists, and we seek to ensure your home or business is in perfect condition. The infrared thermographic imaging technology features an infrared camera, that captures thermal variations. Anything that has thermal emissions has a certain level of infrared emissivity. It is this emissivity that the imaging camera captures. Different infrared emissivity appears as different colors of the wavelength spectrum on the imaging camera. Infrared Thermographic Imaging for Wall Inspections As mentioned above, infrared thermographic wall inspections take advantage of differences in thermal emissions. While conducting wall inspections, our specialists would be looking for cracks, wet patches, and other flaws in the walls. Cracks in walls will in most cases harbor some air. The air-filled area will have different thermal emission than the brick and wood surfaces around it. It will appear as a different color with its distinctive crack shape on the infrared thermographic imager. Visit: www.thermoelite.ca
While inspecting the systems in the walls, the same principle applies. You can have electric cables, water and drain pipes, and/or HVAC ducts behind these walls. Let’s explore how infrared thermographic imaging is used to detect flaws in each of these systems. Electric Cables/Wires Electric cables run throughout your home. In most instances, they will develop problems as a result of wear and tear. Electric faults are dangerous and should be repaired as soon as the fault develops. Unfortunately, it is not easy to note a faulty cable while it is inside the walls. Note that, just because all the electrical appliances and fittings are working, does not mean there isn’t something wrong with the cable. The wires could get their insulation damaged and then they start getting corroded. Corroded electric wires tend to have high resistance to current flow. The high resistance causes the conductor to have a high temperature at that point that the rest of the cable. The higher emissivity will be easily noted by the infrared thermal imaging camera. Insulation damage could cause two conductors to come into contact as well. That causes interference in the flow of current in each conductor. This is a dangerous situation that could easily cause an electric fire. For More Info: https://thermoelite.ca/services/wall-inspections/ Visit: www.thermoelite.ca
