Understanding Thermal Imaging
Thermal imaging is a powerful diagnostic tool, but a temperature difference alone does not confirm a defect. Findings must be interpreted within the context of the property and conditions at the time of inspection.
At Nexus, professional FLIR® technology, specialized analysis and trained interpretation help turn thermal observations into useful information — another way we deliver Insights That Matter.
What Thermal Imaging Can Identify
Thermal imaging reveals temperature patterns that are invisible to the naked eye, providing valuable information about conditions that may otherwise go unnoticed during a home inspection.
When conditions allow, thermal imaging may help identify patterns associated with potential moisture concerns, missing or inconsistent insulation, air leakage, heating and cooling performance, electrical components and other areas that warrant closer evaluation.
Thermal Imaging in a Nexus Inspection
At Nexus, thermal imaging is built into our home inspection process, adding another layer of information to what we observe throughout the property. Thermal patterns are evaluated alongside visual conditions and other inspection findings to provide a complete understanding of the home.
Professional thermal imaging is about more than having a camera. Nexus combines FLIR technology, specialized analysis software, careful image adjustment & trained interpretation to deliver useful thermal observations and insights.
Advanced Imaging & Reporting
For clients seeking further evaluation of a specific concern, Nexus offers advanced thermal imaging as an optional add-on or standalone service. This provides detailed thermal imaging, software-based analysis and interpretation, with dedicated reporting that adds greater context than thermal images incorporated into a standard home inspection.
