What is a thermal imaging scan for my home?

A thermal imaging scan uses an infrared camera to detect temperature differences in your home's walls, ceilings, floors, and windows. It reveals hidden issues like missing insulation, air leaks, moisture intrusion, and electrical hot spots that are invisible to the naked eye. Many home energy auditors include thermal scanning in their assessments. The scan takes one to two hours and provides a detailed report with images showing problem areas. It is one of the most effective ways to identify exactly where your home loses energy.

Why It Matters

A thermal scan takes the guesswork out of energy improvements by showing you exactly where your home needs attention.
