Infrared thermography measures the surface temperature of any material.

Building materials radiate energy and the energy can be affected by moisture content retained within the building materials. Wet materials retain heat and change slower than dry areas of the same type of building material.
Homeowners and businesses use infrared thermographic inspections as a powerful and noninvasive means of monitoring and diagnosing the condition of a building.
It provides immediate, documentation to problems with:
· Moisture
· Plumbing
· Electrical Systems
· Air Leakage
· Missing Insulation
