Commercial
|
|
When it
comes to commercial construction, there is always so
much going on. To
guarantee that everything has been done correctly and
completely throughout the building process can be hard
enough with what you can see, but what about what you
can’t see?
Infrared Thermography can assist the commercial builder
in accomplishing a fully insulated, completely dry, and
energy efficient structure.
Thermal imaging, when utilized in conjunction
with a building matrix, can help to ensure mistakes are
caught early.
Always remember that issues found and fixed now cost
less than later. |

Water and Moisture Issues |
|
|
|
As you can see, water is quickly absorbed by the toe kick
and
the cabinet base. |
Did water get under the toe kick and into the
cabinet?
How much water damage was caused
during the installation of the water lines?
Are all of the exterior doors and windows air and
water tight?
Scheduling a thermal scan periodically during the
building process can reduce the amount of “during
construction” moisture.
