FLIR Infrared Camera Video
Have a look at how to go green, and save money by seeing the invisible world through a FLIR Infrared Camera. No other method of non-destructive testing can reveal what infrared can. A simple scan of your home can reveal many problems you never knew existed.
Plumbing leaks behind walls, water intrusion, energy loss, air intrusion and uneven heat distrubition are just a few of the items that infrared can show instantly in an image.
Check out the video about the FLIR Infrared Cameras.

How an Infrared Survey works for you
This post will explain how an Infrared Survey can save you money, go green and assist in solving other unique problems. Most commonly, a home or business owner contacts us to perform a survey on their home or business. An estimate of the time required to complete the survey is given, and the survey is performed.
The survey is carried out when the largest temperature delta possible is present, thereby giving the best possible thermal contrast for the imaging. The temperature delta is simply the difference between the interior and exterior temperatures of the structure. If the survey is for equipment maintenance/inspection, this is not necessary.
Infrared and non-infrared images are captured throughout the survey. Commonly the owner will be present throughout the procedure. This allows for any particular items of concern to be investigated fully, and known issues pointed out. Following the survey, Advanced Energy Solutions provides a full report outlining the areas of interest/concern. The owner can then contact the appropriate repair or inspection service to proceed with investigation of issues.
Issues commonly noted during a survey:
Electrical problems
Unconditioned air infiltration
Water intrusion/leakage
Ductwork problems
Insulation problems
Uneven air distribution
Etc
An Infrared Survey is not limited to the above. Other imaging and reporting can be provided to suit any customer’s requirements. Such as:
Imaging of Industrial equipment (electrical, mechanical, etc)
Hydro transmission systems
Pest Control (IR can see rodent nests, bee’s nests, etc within a structure)
Farm Survey (Barns, equipment, hay/straw storage etc)
Animals (horses, pets etc can be imaged for anomalies indicating discomfort/defect)
And many more!
See our other posts for examples if IR images and survey results.

A couple examples of some anomalies noted during some recent IR Imaging. Sometimes when imaging we notice blatent visible damge leading to further investigation and problem areas noted, sometimes I am totally taken by surpirse...
