Today's article covers infrared thermography testing techniques, advantages, and restrictions. Besides having your property recertified every 40 years, an infrared thermography check is essential. However, we'll limit our discussion of thermography testing methods in this article to their advantages and disadvantages. Infrared Thermography Overview Infrared thermography charts the temperature from the radiation of an item. Thermograms can reveal hidden heat sources and display temperature dispersion. Preventive maintenance and condition monitoring are widely used. All objects generate thermal infrared radiation above absolute zero (-459.67 degrees Fahrenheit). Therefore thermal imagers can easily discern between different infrared wavelengths. Users of night-vision goggles can see in complete darkness. Infrared thermography examines the thermal signatures of machinery to look for inefficiencies and issues. In addition, asset managers can inspect mechanical equipment more effec...

An infrared thermography inspection has become a prerequisite for home inspections. So crucial have thermography inspections become that they are even legally required now.  The requirement for infrared thermal inspection at the time of either home foundation inspection or structural engineer inspection has increased, and for good.  You see, there are many gray areas of your home that simply can't be analyzed visually during structure inspections . And that is precisely where an infrared thermographer’s skills come into the picture.   An infrared thermography inspection is a non-invasive and efficient way of home inspection. So, unlike manual home structural inspection , it doesn't involve any wear and tear at all.  Wondering what calls for an infrared thermography inspection in your home?  We’ve compiled when and why you should go for a thermography inspection, so let’s have a look.  #1. Infrared thermography inspection when selling your home...
