It’s not just homes. All buildings lose at least a little heat when it’s cold outside and gain some in the summer. Energy experts have discovered that when it comes to greenhouse gas emissions, buildings in the United States are as much at fault as the vehicles. In fact, in over half the California homes built before 1960, the walls are still not insulated. Air gaps are an equally wasteful concern, especially in earthquake zones and high wind areas. The problem is, neither one of these issues is visible to the naked eye. But with an industrial-grade infrared camera, you actually can see what’s going on. Visual Cue’s FLUKE FlexCam is sensitive to 1/10th of a degree Fahrenheit. That means it can pick up the extremely subtle warming and cooling effects that are often the only sign of trapped moisture, degraded insulation, and infiltration problems. Our reports are essential for planning successful energy upgrades, confirming quality of work completed, and verifying claims of energy efficiency prior to purchase. We are the Bay Area’s only independent, and certified, infrared scanning service. |

US Department of Energy recommends that every home buyer order an infrared inspection before making a purchase. Why? Millions of poorly insulated homes are wasting energy.
