Profile: Southwest Thermal Solutions, LLC provides infrared scanning allowing certified thermographers to check the effectiveness of energy efficiency and performance. We use advanced technology available, including high-resolution infrared cameras that provide accurate video and/or digital images for better device recognition. Thermal infrared imaging has become a valuable tool in performing infrared energy audits in residential and commercial applications. Thermography (infrared, thermal scans) uses specially designed infrared still cameras to make images (called thermograms) that show surface heat variations. The infrared camera has the ability to display heat energy as a visual image. Thermograms of electrical systems can detect abnormally hot electrical connections or components. Thermograms of mechanical systems can detect the heat created by excessive friction. Energy auditors use thermography as a tool to help detect heat losses and air leakages in building envelopes. Home energy audits sometimes include a thermographic inspection. Flat roof inspection is a common form of infrared roof inspection. Many roofs need to be replaced prematurely due to moisture damage from leaks and improper installation. Infrared thermography has a proven track record in finding damaged portions of roofing structure, so that they can be repaired before water damage rots the entire roof.
