Home inspector using thermal imaging to spot missing insulation in home to save energy
Thermal imaging is a technology that uses infrared radiation to create a visual image of the thermal energy emitted by an object. This technology can be used to detect missing insulation in a home by identifying areas where there is a significant difference in temperature between the interior and exterior of the home. When insulation is missing, heat will escape from the home more easily, causing the interior surface temperature of the walls, roof, and floors to be lower than the exterior surface temperature.
A thermal imaging camera can be used to create a visual representation of the temperature differences in a home, and this can help to identify areas where insulation is missing or inadequate. The camera works by detecting the infrared radiation emitted by an object and converting it into an image that shows the temperature differences as different colors. In areas where insulation is missing, the image will show a higher temperature than in areas where insulation is present and working properly.
Thermal imaging can be used to detect missing insulation in walls, roof, and floors, which is not visible to the naked eye. This method can also detect other issues such as air leaks, and moisture issues that can cause mold and structural damage. A professional energy auditor can help you to detect these issues and can give you recommendations on how to improve your home's energy efficiency.
