Alexander Exterminating, through our Level-1-Certified Infrared Thermographer utilizing a camera, offers non-contact, non-destructive thermal imaging services for any number of applications. We offer both standalone imaging services as well as integrated imaging/pest control services.
Tip: An infrared camera measures surface temperatures and the study of these thermal patterns across the surface of an object is known as “infrared thermography”.
Our thermography services extend to: Pest Management, Mold Remediation, Building Envelope Inspections and Insulated Flat Roof Inspections…..
Pest Management
Non-invasive pest management and critter control:
- Detect pests and/or conditions favorable to their existence such as latent moisture.
- Helps detect wood-destroying organisms such as insects and fungus that damage structures by feeding on or nesting in wooden construction materials.
- Facilitates locating unwanted live insects, animals or organisms in your walls, crawlspace, or attic, such as bats, mice, squirrels or honey bees.
Mold Remediation:
- Helps detect wood-destroying organisms, such as insects and fungi, that damage structures by feeding on wooden construction materials.
- Locate latent moisture on drywall and carpet. Identifies latent moisture within styrene insulation of the exterior walls.
- Detect the source of mold and mildew odors.
Building Envelope Inspections:
- Detect air and water leaks in walls including EIFS (exterior insulation and finish system) walls, ceilings, and floors.
- Locate useless mold/water-laden insulation.
- Locate latent moisture on drywall and carpet
- Identify latent moisture within styrene insulation of the exterior walls.
- Detect the source of mold and mildew odors.
- Identify cold-air movement around water pipes to prevent freezing.
- Quality assurance: helps identify poorly built structures.
- Facilitates locating unwanted live insects, animals, or organisms in your walls, crawlspace, or attic, such as bats, mice, squirrels, and honey bees.
Insulated Flat Roof Inspections:
- A non-invasive way to locate the source of a roof leak.
- Quality assurance:
- Helps identify poorly built roof structures.
- Monitors the results of repair work.
- Identifies trapped moisture which can lead to any of the following:
- Energy loss due to wet insulation.
- Added weight to roofing system.
- Premature failure due to water damaged structural components.
