Infrared Testing
Infrared Testing in the Twin Cities
What is Infrared Testing?
Infrared Testing shows in full color exactly where a home is letting in the cold and letting out the heat.
With an infrared (IR) scan of the interior of your home, you’ll be equipped with an actual picture of your energy consumption. You’ll be able to see the hot spots and cold spots on the floor, walls, and ceiling of your home.
Save Money on Energy Expenses with Infrared Testing
When you can see heat leaving your home, it’s an entirely different conversation.
You can begin to address problem areas and stop air leakages when you see where air leaks are. If the leaks are happening through your ceiling (light fixtures, ceiling fans, wall tops), usually the best solution is to address those bypasses from your attic. If your attic isn’t accessible, or if the problem areas aren't reachable, you can do some of the necessary air sealing from inside your living space.
If leaks are happening in your walls—around your windows and doors—you can address those with weatherstripping or paintable silicone caulking.
