Thermal Imaging Inspections
Understanding Heat Loss
Heat loss occurs when buildings and homes leak warmth through poorly insulated areas such as windows, doors and the building envelope. It's not just a matter of comfort, unchecked heat loss can lead to skyrocketing energy bills and an increased carbon footprint. We at Scott's, understand the significance of heat loss and take the necessary steps toward making our homes more energy efficient and eco friendly.
We can quickly identify temperature differentials, highlight cold spots and reveal hidden escape routes that are visible to the naked eye. We offer efficiency, speed and accuracy in assessing heat loss.
Let's get down to business, when we inspect heat loss with a thermal camera, we do an exterior inspection, identifying cold spots and temperature anomalitys in windows, doors and walls. We move indoors to check for temperature disparities and pinpoint heat leakage routes, noting specific areas that require attention.
The efforts you invest in detecting and addressing in heat loss will pay dividends in the long run. You stand to experience significant energy savings and lower utility bills. Moreover, high efficiency windows and doors will enhance indoor comfort, making your home or work space more pleasant year round.

Red Indicates Heat Loss
This is a cold home. The darker the colour indicates cold spots, leaks, poor insulation.
