infrared inspection: Detecting Moisture within the Clouds of Ogden Utah using Infrared - 04/14/13 02:01 PM
Thermal Imaging provides a home buyer some amazing benefits in terms of detecting hidden moisture/mold. While moisture is quickly identified within a home, it can also be quickly identified within the clouds.
These were clouds moving over Ogden last week. I could immediately see that the coming clouds were rain clouds and held a large amount of moisture based off the thermal patterns. You'll notice how the clouds are green in some areas and blue/purple in others. The blue/purple clouds are the ones holding a majority of the moisture. Thermal Imaging allows me to see rain clouds even when it's pitch … (0 comments)

Utah Home Inspections in the Early Spring Season
Most Utah citizens associate Spring time with melting snow, streams of water, and the sun's warmth returning life to all that was covered by snow.

Are You In The Privacy of Your Own Home?

infrared inspection: Your Infrared Refrigerator and Freezer Inspection. What? - 06/15/10 12:41 AM
Your Infrared Refrigerator and Freezer Inspection.   What?
"SHUT THE FRIDGE"
I'm sure everybody's heard that about a thousand times, but hey, energy bills are rising so you should probably be prepared to hear it (or say it) alot more!
Sometimes shutting the fridge just isn't enough. The seals on refridgerators and freezers tend to go bad after about 7-8 years. The constant compression and expansion from opening and closing the door begins to wear the seals out just the way it does the weather stripping on a regular door.
New refridgerators can also leak due to improper seal installation. I've noticed … (2 comments)

infrared inspection: An Ounce Of Prevention Is Worth A Pound Of Cure (Pics Included) - 02/20/10 10:26 AM
Home Inspections performed after a long Utah Winter can show that all the moisture can take quite a toll on our homes. If you notice signs of staining where a gutter meets the exterior siding of a house than the gutter isn't properly sealed. Sealing the gutter is a very cheap an easy fix which can easily avoid what you see below.
Walk around your home and look for signs of staining. If you see stains than get some gutter sealant or silicone for $5-$10 bucks, seal the leaking area, and save yourself a future headache.

infrared inspection: Vacant Homes Benefit Greatly From Infrared Inspections - 12/30/09 07:16 PM
Infrared Home Inspections are beneficial in identifing frozen and busted plumbing pipes. Many of these issues are being found on the numerous bank owned properties. A bank owned or vacant property can often be neglected and a Infrared Inspection can often save your client alot of money and frustration. 
A frozen pipe doesn't always just bust and cause an immediate and noticeable problem. Often times a fitting or connection will become damaged and a slow leak will begin to occur just inside the wall. Without Infrared Technology these slow leaks are undetectable and go unnoticed until the sheet rock begins to stain or sag.
