THERMAL IMAGING water detection
WHAT IS THERMAL IMAGING WATER DETECTION?
Infrared cameras generate images based on the heat given off by objects, allowing thermal images to see things in a home. This can not been seen by the naked eye . Infrared imaging detects temperature differences. This is helping experts to find areas of your home that are leaking air. These areas may lack insulation. This will need air sealing, or be damaged by water leaks. Points close to exterior openings, walls and ceilings that differ greatly in temperature from the remainder of the home usually indicate leaks or insulation problems. Thermal Imaging Water Detection.
LOCATING AIR LEAKAGE, MOISTURE ISSUES & INADEQUATE INSULATION
Infrared imaging analysis of you home will show you the cause of issues with energy inefficiency and other comfort and health problems. Moisture Problems – Moisture can cause mold and mildew growth inside your home. It can cause health concerns and destroy your home’s structure with rot. Since infrared thermal imaging identifies moisture intrusion, you can quickly act on addressing these concerns. Thus reducing the risk of health problems for you and your family.
Water leaks and moisture infiltration can cause serious damage to a house or building. Moisture infiltration will be difficult to detect until it’s already too late. Using a thermal imaging camera and under the right circumstances, it’s possible to find hidden water and moisture issues. There are many sources of building moisture. Some examples includes humidity ), condensation, pipe leaks, rain and snow, and even people and animals breathing. Usually a low level of moisture is fine, but leaks or heavy condensation can cause serious problems. A thermal imaging camera cannot “see” moisture in walls, but it can detect subtle temperature differences and patterns that reveal the existence of water.
Thermal imaging, also known as infrared thermography or thermographic imaging, is a technology that allows us to visualize and capture the infrared radiation emitted by objects and convert it into visible images. It is based on the principle that all objects with a temperature above absolute zero emit infrared radiation.
Thermal imaging works by using a device called a thermal camera or infrared camera, which contains a special sensor capable of detecting and measuring the intensity of infrared radiation. The camera then translates this information into a color-coded image, known as a thermogram or thermal image, where different colors represent different temperatures.
It’s important to note that thermal imaging provides a visualization of surface temperatures and does not directly measure the actual temperature of an object. The accuracy and resolution of thermal cameras can vary depending on the device’s specifications and the intended application.
