What thermal imaging can identify

* Water ingress: Wet areas often appear cooler than surrounding dry materials because moisture affects heat transfer and evaporation cools the surface.
* Leaks: Hidden plumbing leaks beneath floors, behind walls, or in ceilings can create distinct thermal patterns.
* Condensation risk: Cold bridges (areas with poor insulation) show up clearly, helping identify where condensation and mould are likely to form.
* Insulation defects: Missing or damaged insulation can contribute to condensation problems and are easily seen with a thermal camera.
* Air leakage: Draughts around windows, doors, and building joints can be identified, which may contribute to cold surfaces and condensation.

The importance of subfloor vents ✨

Subfloor vents are crucial for maintaining a healthy and structurally sound home. They prevent moisture buildup in the space below your floorboards, which can lead to a variety of problems, including dampness, mold, wood rot, and even pest infestations.
