IR Scans

Infrared Scan & Moisture Test in Victoria, BC

Infra-Red Scans are the best factual and non-destructive way to determine problematic roof areas and help establish if the roof can be restored or should be replaced.

The roof inspection process involved an inspection of the roofing assembly with infrared-imaging equipment. Overly sensitive to variations in temperature, infrared imaging provides accurate information on the location(s) of sub-surface moisture which may have accumulated within various types of roofing assemblies.

Essentially, this equipment is detecting the differences/variations in insulating-qualities between wet and dry roof insulation materials. Wet/damp thermal insulation within a roof system generates reduced insulating properties that are detectable with this type of sensitive equipment.
