At Red Shield Inspections, we utilize advanced infrared thermal imaging technology to uncover hidden issues that traditional visual inspections simply cannot detect. Serving homeowners, buyers, sellers, and property managers across California, our thermal imaging scans provide a deeper, more accurate understanding of your property’s condition—offering early detection, added clarity, and unmatched diagnostic precision.
Infrared imaging allows our certified inspectors to identify temperature anomalies behind walls, ceilings, floors, and other concealed areas. This non-invasive technology reveals problems that are invisible to the naked eye, helping prevent future damage, reduce repair costs, and support informed decision-making during real estate transactions or routine maintenance.
What We Detect With Thermal Imaging
Infrared thermal imaging is one of the most versatile inspection tools available. Our scans can reveal:
✔ Moisture Intrusion & Water Leaks
Identify hidden moisture behind drywall, under flooring, or within ceilings—often before staining, mold growth, or structural damage becomes visible.
✔ Electrical Hotspots
Detect overloaded circuits, loose connections, overheating breakers, or failing components that could pose fire hazards.
✔ Insulation Deficiencies
Locate missing, damaged, or poorly installed insulation affecting energy efficiency and comfort.
✔ Air Leaks & Drafts
Spot gaps around windows, doors, attics, and wall penetrations that waste energy and increase utility bills.
✔ HVAC Performance Issues
Evaluate temperature distribution, duct leaks, and system inefficiencies.
✔ Plumbing & Radiant Heating Concerns
Find leaks in supply lines, drain systems, and radiant flooring without needing to open walls.
Why Thermal Imaging Matters in California Homes
California’s diverse climate—from coastal humidity to inland heat—creates unique challenges for residential properties. Infrared thermal imaging provides benefits such as:
-
Early detection of moisture concerns in coastal regions
-
Improved energy efficiency in hot inland zones
-
Verification of insulation in older California homes
-
Greater accuracy during real estate inspections
-
Non-invasive, real-time diagnostics with zero damage
Whether you’re buying, selling, or maintaining your home, thermal imaging gives you a clearer, deeper view of what’s happening behind the surface.
Add-On or Standalone Service
Infrared thermal imaging can be included as part of a full home inspection or ordered as a standalone diagnostic service for specific concerns. Our findings are delivered in a detailed report with infrared photographs, temperature readings, and clear explanations of any issues discovered.
