Thermal Imaging for A-Pro Greater Montgomery Home Inspection Clients
😆 Serving the entire Tri-County Area
Air Tightness and Thermal Imaging testing are important quality control measures when buying an existing home or renovating a house. Heat losses in buildings can account for up to 50% of the total energy consumption and comes from air leakage through chimneys, attics, wall vents and badly sealed windows/doors, etc.
At A-Pro our detection and Visualization of Air Infiltration and Exfiltration is state of the art.
Adequate air exchange is essential for the occupants’ health and safety, but most buildings have a far higher rate of air exchange than is necessary. The root cause is often poor design and/or construction which allows air leakage from the inside of outside of the building, or the opposite. The leakage pathway is often complex and, without thermal imaging, extremely difficult to visualize. This also allows A-Pro home inspectors to quickly identify and report the problem areas so you can make necessary repairs and stop the energy loss immediately.
All new buildings must meet air tightness requirements of the Building Regulations. By reducing air leakage, you will obtain a better comfort in the home or building. The building can also be heated more efficiently to conserve energy and save you money.
Improved Energy Efficiency
To identify areas of energy waste infrared imaging has quickly become a valued tool in identifying problems related to energy loss, missing insulation, inefficient HVAC systems, radiant heating, water damage on roofs, and much more. A thermal imaging camera identifies patterns of heat loss that are invisible to the naked eye. Thermal imaging will quickly indicate the air leaks within a home and then measurement data will be compiled into a report for your understanding of the problem areas.
Our A-Pro Long Island and energy auditors are using leading-edge infrared technology from FLIR to perform energy auditing of homes and buildings to help our clients improve energy efficiency, thus leading to savings on energy costs.
Thermal Imaging for HVAC & Plumbing Problems
A “whole building” approach is needed to maximize the energy efficiency of your new building or home. The Indoor environment can be compromised by poor insulation, poorly sealed windows and doors, inadequate or poorly sealed ductwork, plumbing leaks, or other plumbing issues relating to Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems.
At A-Pro Home Inspection long Island we help you see the Big Picture
An infrared camera is a practical tool that helps A-Pro Long Island Home inspectors help you see the big picture. With our state-of-the-art FLIR infrared cameras A-Pro Long Island Home inspectors, can easily scan an entire building and see the relation of HVAC system, building envelope, and plumbing issues.
And, with FLIR cameras, you get advanced A-Pro Long Island home inspection reports to help you see how, when, and where energy saving solutions can be implemented. From determining insulation effectiveness to diagnosing faulty ductwork, A-Pro Long Island Home inspectors helps protect your investment.
Thermal Imaging for Moisture & Restoration
Whether you need to restore property from moisture, mold, or fire damage, you know the value of having comprehensive and accurate information at your fingertips. Insurance companies need information fast to start claims work. Your customers need information so they can get their property restored. And you need information so you can make estimation and reporting trouble free.

Thermal Imaging for Commercial Building Diagnostics
Poor or inadequate insulation, moisture, building envelope leaks, and substandard work are costly to residential and commercial building owners. Our infrared camera can help you quickly see where energy efficiency can be improved.
A-Pro Long Island Home inspectors make it easy to improve energy efficiency and locate repairs with minimal disruption.
A-Pro Long Island Home inspectors instantly show you what is wet and what is dry. Our cameras can help find the sources of trouble with minimal impact to people and buildings. A-Pro Long Island Home inspectors are preferred by building experts for fast, reliable, accurate building diagnosis in the entire range of building problems.Infrared thermography is a powerful & non-invasive method of monitoring and troubleshooting the conditions of buildings.
Stop Guessing – Start Seeing

A-Pro Long Island Home inspectors Infrared thermography operates by measuring the infrared energy of any objects surface and producing a detailed visual image showing its temperature profile. Since IR operates without physical contact, it is non-intrusive, on-line, and cost effective means to evaluate a buildings operating integrity. While many borderline problem areas typically remain undetected during an off-line physical inspection, they can easily be seen using A-Pro Long Island Home inspectors infrared technology.
