Moisture and Mould Inspection Using Infrared Camera
John A. Herbert
Director
Tropical Hong Kong has high humidity and rainfall during the summer,
and both can cause damage to the building fabric and mould.
Infrared inspection is one tool for inspecting buildings to idendify moisture
problems. And should be part of your Planned
Preventative Maintenance plan.
How does it work?
All objects have a surface temperature and features with a void,
for example a damp wall, will have slightly different temperature,
but temperature is not visible to the naked eye, infrared
camera shows us the temperature image to detect problems.
Where delamination occurs that void beneath the surface
creates a differents slightly temperature profile, and
although invisible to us, it is revealed with our
infrared camera.
Kelcroft's infrared imaging is fast, accurate to 0.01 degC,
non-destructive test (NDT) method that pin points problems
during the inspection.
It's a line of sight test, therefore any obstacles may
prevent or limit the inspection.
Reporting
After the inspection, a written report is provided detailing
findings and recommendations.
