What Is an Infrared Building Inspection?
An infrared building inspection uses thermal imaging cameras to detect temperature variations in your home or commercial property. These variations often reveal hidden problems that standard visual inspections cannot detect. With thermal technology, we can find:
- Hidden moisture in walls or ceilings
- Electrical hotspots that pose a fire risk
- Missing insulation or air leaks
- HVAC system inefficiencies
- Structural weaknesses due to trapped moisture or pests
When you choose East Alabama Home Inspectors, you’re not just getting an inspection — you’re getting insight that can save thousands in repairs.

Why Choose Infrared Inspections?
Standard inspections are limited to what the eye can see. But with infrared thermal imaging, we go deeper. Here’s what sets EAHI infrared inspections apart:
- Detect problems early: Thermal imaging helps identify issues long before they become visible or costly.
- Uncover hidden water damage: Moisture trapped inside walls can lead to mold and rot. Infrared sees what you can’t.
- Reduce energy costs: We identify heat loss, missing insulation, and HVAC inefficiencies that cost you money.
- Ensure electrical safety: Hot spots behind walls could indicate overloaded wiring or failing components.

What Can Infrared Imaging Reveal?
At EAHI, we use top-of-the-line infrared cameras to detect:
- Moisture intrusion: From leaking roofs, basements, or plumbing
- Electrical faults: Breakers, panels, switches, or wiring overheating
- Energy loss: Air leaks around windows, doors, and wall penetrations
- Missing insulation: Cold or hot spots due to poor installation
- Pest infestations: Nesting animals often alter heat signatures in attics or behind walls
Our inspectors are trained to interpret infrared patterns correctly — not all “hot spots” or “cold zones” mean problems, but we know what to look for.
