Full Home Inspection
A top-to-bottom evaluation of the roof, structure, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC before you buy.
Learn moreAn infrared camera doesn't see through walls — it sees temperature. In a Calgary winter, that's nearly as useful. Thermal imaging reveals heat loss, missing insulation, hidden moisture, and overheating electrical components, all without cutting a single hole in your drywall.
Every material gives off infrared energy based on its surface temperature. When insulation is missing behind a wall, that patch reads colder on a January morning. When water has soaked into a ceiling, evaporation makes it cooler than the surrounding board. When a breaker connection is loose, resistance makes it hotter than its neighbours. The camera makes all of it visible in seconds.
In practice, we scan exterior walls, ceilings below attics, rim joists, around windows and doors, under bathrooms and kitchens, and across the electrical panel. Findings are captured as paired thermal and visible-light images so you can see exactly what we saw and where.
Thermal imaging is a diagnostic aid, not a guarantee. Conditions matter: the best results come when there's a meaningful temperature difference between inside and outside, which in Calgary means most of the year. We confirm suspected moisture findings with a moisture meter before reporting them as such.
Heating season here runs long, and the temperature difference across your walls is often 40 degrees or more. That gradient is exactly what an infrared camera needs. Missing attic insulation, a poorly sealed rim joist, or a bypass around a pot light shows up starkly — and each one is costing you money every month from October to April. Finding them is usually far cheaper than the fix pays back.
