StandardInfra-Red (IR) Scanning
We use to help diagnose insulation levels and air leakage areas when needed. This is very helpful when testing to meet the air leakage requirements for your HERS Rating.
By scanning the walls with an infrared camera, hidden air leaks are very easy to see while running a blower door test. If you are having trouble passing this test, we can help determine where your biggest air leaks are located.
