Infrared roof scans are one of several non-destructive techniques utilized to detect presence of moisture in low slope roofs. Infrared equipment identifies temperature differences which are not visible to the naked eye. These temperature differences allow a specialist to see where moisture exists.
Of course, just owning an infrared camera does not make one an infrared roof scan specialist. Our team is comprised of experts in building envelopes and exteriors, and have a comprehensive knowledge of roofing and wall systems. We are able to identify and observe anomalies systems and differentiate any moisture or thermal bridging from building component or roof assembly materials that often lead to misinterpretations.
As an added value, our team does not solely rely on the readings of an infrared camera. As part of our standard practice, when performing infrared roof surveys we will use an electro capacitance device to help confirm the suspect moisture presence. Testing can be performed in accordance to ASTM C1153-10 standards.
When working with MTNVIEW you can expect professional service. Our knowledgeable team will identify and mark the subject roof for you to immediately see what has been observed. Our comprehensive reports include a roof plan identifying the observations marked on the roof. Supporting photographic documentations is also included.
MTNVIEW has performed infrared roof scans on buildings throughout the United States with a concentration in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast regions of the country.
