Infrared Thermal Imaging inspect.
Is your home airtight and well insulated ?
- heating bills to high?
- moisture problems ?
- dry indoor air and static electrity?
- some rooms feel colder than others?
You may be burning your money...
Introducing a new tool on the block for home inspections.
infrared thermal imaging
The best $ for $ energy efficiency improvement investment for your home is repairing existing air and insulation gaps.
Reducing home heating costs is not just installing new windows, doors or a new electric furnace:
Costs are out of control when it comes to heating. Some avoid the issue and keep paying increasingly higher energy bills. Others take action and install new energy efficient windows and doors or a convert to an electric furnace from oil or gas. Those upgrades often see only a nominal reduction in energy consumption.
This kind of shotgun approach will put a big dent in your wallet and a small dent in your home heating bill.
Reduce your home heat-loss sources first.
Home building practices have changed over the years. The older a house the more air leaks it has. Homes build after 2000 are airtight and well insulated by design. This does not mean that air leaks or insulation deficiencies do not exist.
Sloppy workmanship and "out of sight out of mind" attitude can render any building poorly insulated.
The most effective way to put a big dent in your heating bill is to find and close big and small air leaks and insulation deficiencies.
This can be a dounting task if you do not even know where the air leaks and areas of missing insulation are.....
Thermal imaging is a noninvasive methode to find insulation and air-leak problems.
The Canadian Goverment program adminstered by Enercan uses a blower test to measure the air leakage of homes.This test can provide you with a global measure of how airtight it is.
This test does not disclose the exact location of the leakage points nor will it indicate missing insulation in your walls.
That's where thermal imaging comes into the picture. The technology shows in color where exactly the vapor barrier is interruped or insulation missing that allows cold outside air to infiltrate.
Make your home more energy efficient first before considering replacing your old furnace and heatpump.
Fixing the airgaps and insulation deficiencies will effect the seize of the heating equipment required to heat your home. Seize is important. An overseized unit will operated less efficiently as it will turn on/off more often. Selecting a smaller unit to fit the upgaded building envelope will save you in purchasing and operational costs.
