What you need to know about Ogden Utah Home Inspections
Are you worried about buying a new home or property? You should be.
Traditional home inspections give you very little value for your dollar.

Traditional commercial inspections leave you with a standard checklist and a hefty bill, but little else.

If you really want to know the status and quality of a home or building, you need an infrared inspection that can show you the problems that are hidden behind the walls, under the roof, and in the ceilings. If your paying for a non-infrared inspection than your paying … (0 comments)

Ogden Utah's Most Advanced Home Inspection by Utah Infrared Inspections
 
Combined with traditional home inspection techniques, thermal imaging has proven to  reveal the most significant amount ofbeneficial information pertaining to the true condition of a home.  Flashlights and the conventional inspection tools being used by 90% of todays home inspectors are practically obsolete compared to the advanced Thermal Imaging Equipment and inspection tools we use on every inspection. Many things will go un-noticed if your inspector doen't offer Infrared services over the typical $20 flashlight.

Many Utah Home Owners are Living in Extremely Dangerous Radon Conditions
If your buying a home in Utah that hasn't had a current Radon Test than I urge you to consider having a Radon Test. Radon Testing can be added to the cost of the general home inspection for as little as $125.   

Utah is a MAJOR hot zone for elevated radon levels. Nearly every single week we detect atleast 1 if not more homes that have un-safe levels of Radon. Many times the homes we test are for the buyers during our general home inspection. It's not uncommon … (1 comments)

Salt Lake City Infrared Home Inspections Continue to Pay For Themselves
I'm glad to say that the cost of all five Infrared home inspections that I preformed last week were re-gained by the home buyer. Infrared home inspections can identify many things that simply can't be detected by a normal home inspection. The concerns that were identifed in all of last weeks inspections were defects that couldn't be detected by the naked eye. Each defect were things the current home owner agreed to repair before the sale therefore saving the home buyer from inheriting the problem.
The average infrared home inspection … (0 comments)

Ogden Home Buyers Should Insist on Infrared Home Inspections
The benefits provided by an Infrared Home Inspection can't be denied. On nearly every home Inspection I provide, I uncover numerous things that simply can't be detected by the naked eye. I believe in the necessity of an Infrared inspection so strongly that even though I'm a certified home inspector, I will not even consider offering a home inspection without it.
No matter how good the inspector, many things simply cannot be detected without the use of thermal imaging.
Using a home inspector without Infrared Technology is about like using a dentist … (1 comments)

utah: Why is it so hard to keep my house cool? THE LIGHTS, REALLY! - 05/27/11 05:10 PM
Why is it so hard to keep my house cool, is what my client asked me the other day.
After about 5 minutes of scanning the home with my infrared camera, I knew exactly what was a major contributor to the home's heat. THE LIGHTS!
Many people don't realize just how much heat their light-bulbs are emitting. Incadescent lightbulbs are very cheap and very tempting to buy especially when compared to the price of LED lights.
Buying incadesent bulbs offers a savings at the register but you can rest assured they are robbing you at home.
Take a look at the … (3 comments)

utah: Another HUGE Benefit provided by Utah Infrared Home Inspections - 05/19/11 12:26 PM
If your HVAC ducts have leakage percent of just 20%, the efficiency of the cooling system can drop as much as 50%. The increase in energy costs as a result of leaky ducts are significant. Duct leakage also lowers heating and cooling capacity thereby reducing equipment life.
 
Another HUGE Benefit provided by Utah Infrared Home Inspections is that thermal imaging allows us to see duct leaks that would otherwise go un-detected.
 

Did you know the average Utah home wastes 30% of the HVAC system's energy consumption due to leaky ducts. The cost of an infrared inspection can … (1 comments)

What are the benefits of having a Utah Infrared Home Inspection?
 
The benefits of an infrared home inspection so far outweigh a non-infrared inspection that I'd almost consider a non-infrared inspection to be obsolete.
I personally couldn't imagine buying a property without first having an infrared inspection. If your buying a home without an infrared inspection than your taking a huge yet easily avoidable risk. An Infrared Home Inspection doesn't cost more than a flashlight inspection yet yields nearly double the benefits.
Just a few of the ADDITIONAL benefits provided by thermal imaging are:
 
-  Electrical faults before they … (2 comments)
