Aladdin's Thermal Imaging Services
The thermal imaging camera reads temperature differentials in a material and uses them to create a heat map picture. Because an area that is wet remains a few degrees cooler than areas that are dry, the thermal imaging camera is able to show at a glance any possible areas of concern. These areas can then be tested with traditional moisture meters.
The camera is priceless on large losses where meter readings can take hours but are necessary to determine optimum placement of drying equipment. On smaller losses, the camera can be used to show property owners and insurance professionals exactly where moisture lies, and to monitor the daily progress of the drying.
Additionally, the camera is useful when dealing with roof leaks, allowing us to find which areas have been effected without putting unnecessary holes in the ceiling. This accuracy translates to lower costs for the insurance company and fewer headaches for the property owner.

The image on the left shows the studs behind drywall as it looks to the naked eye, the image on the right shows that same area using the thermal imaging camera. The blue indicates cooler temperatures, showing that moisture has wicked up the drywall. This was then verified using traditional meters. You can see how it might be possible to overlook this area as being effected, however, the thermal imaging camera shows us quickly which areas to test. |
