Cutting-Edge Diagnostic Tools
At Envelope-Leak.ca, we invest in the latest technology to provide the most accurate and efficient building envelope leak detection services.
Our advanced diagnostic tools allow us to identify moisture intrusion and leak sources with precision, often without the need for destructive testing. This non-invasive approach helps preserve your property while providing the detailed information needed to develop effective repair solutions.
Our Diagnostic Equipment
We utilize a comprehensive suite of advanced tools to detect and diagnose building envelope leaks.
Infrared Thermal Imaging Cameras
Our high-resolution infrared cameras detect temperature variations in building materials that indicate the presence of moisture:
- Visualize moisture patterns hidden behind walls and ceilings
- Identify thermal bridges and insulation deficiencies
- Detect water intrusion without damaging building materials
- Create detailed thermal maps of problem areas
- Document conditions before and after repairs
Professional Moisture Meters
Our professional-grade moisture meters provide precise measurements of moisture content in various building materials:
- Non-invasive scanning of surfaces for hidden moisture
- Pin-type probes for precise moisture content readings
- Depth-adjustable readings to locate moisture at different levels
- Material-specific calibration for accurate results
- Data logging capabilities for tracking moisture patterns over time
Acoustic Leak Detection
Our acoustic sensors detect the sound of water movement within building assemblies:
- Identify active leaks by detecting water movement sounds
- Pinpoint leak locations in pipes and building systems
- Non-invasive detection through walls, floors, and ceilings
- Effective for locating intermittent leaks
- Complementary to thermal imaging for comprehensive detection
Hygrometers & Environmental Monitors
Our environmental monitoring equipment measures ambient conditions that affect moisture behavior:
- Measure relative humidity, temperature, and dew point
- Monitor conditions inside wall cavities and attic spaces
- Identify conditions conducive to condensation and mold growth
- Track environmental changes over time
- Assess the effectiveness of ventilation systems
Digital Documentation & Reporting
Our digital documentation tools provide comprehensive records of building conditions:
- High-resolution digital photography of visible conditions
- Detailed thermal images with temperature data
- GPS-tagged photos for precise location documentation
- Digital floor plans with annotated problem areas
- Comprehensive digital reports with findings and recommendations
Drone Inspection Technology
Our drone technology allows for safe inspection of difficult-to-access areas:
- Inspect high roofs and building facades safely
- Capture high-resolution images of potential problem areas
- Thermal imaging capabilities for comprehensive roof inspections
- Document conditions in areas that would otherwise require scaffolding
- Provide detailed visual records of building envelope conditions
Benefits of Non-Invasive Detection
