ICON ThermalEye™ High-Resolution Infrared Thermal Imaging Technology​
At ICON Inspection & Drone Services, LLC, our inspectors utilize infrared thermal imaging to see what the naked eye cannot. This non-invasive technology measures the temperature signatures of select components, revealing atypical variations that may indicate underlying issues.
​
Because thermal imaging is a sophisticated tool, our inspectors are specifically trained to interpret these infrared results alongside building science. We offer this as an optional add-on to our regular home inspections or as a standalone diagnostic service to assist in identifying:
​
-
Energy Loss: Pinpointing air leaks, heat loss, and missing insulation in the building envelope.
-
Moisture Intrusion: Detecting temperature signatures of hidden leaks behind walls or ceilings before they cause significant damage.
-
Electrical Hazards: Identifying hot spots in electrical panels or circuits that may indicate safety risks.
-
System Inefficiencies: Locating broken seals in double-paned windows, pest infestations, or malfunctions in radiant heating systems.
​
The ICON Advantage™: To ensure accuracy, any thermal anomaly detected is qualified using a professional Moisture Meter to confirm areas of concentrated moisture.
