Woodbury Thermal Imaging Inpections offer our customers an opportunity to "see" what would otherwise be undetectable to the human eye, using a FLIR (Forward Looking Infrared) camera to aid in the inspection process.

What is thermal imaging?
Thermal imaging involves literally taking a ‘heat image’ of an object by measuring the amount of infrared radiation that the object is emitting or absorbing. Thermal imaging is a modern proactive approach to equipment maintenance, building inspection, and home inspections. We scan the relevant components of a home or building using our state of the art equipment. The resulting thermal imaging photos captured will indicate whether any components are deficient.

Why is this Important?
It is a powerful non-contact tool used across a wide range of industries and applications ranging from predictive maintenance of electrical/ mechanical equipment to product development and building envelope inspection.

Thermography, or thermal imaging, is a type of infrared imaging. A thermographer takes and interprets IR images. Thermographers are trained professionals often carrying specific technical certifications. Thermographers need to be familiar with thermal dynamics, heat transfer laws, and of the situations and reasons why the temperature of objects may vary, and how similar objects of similar temperature may appear to have completely different temperatures to each other.

What is our Training?
Thermographic images can be difficult to measure and interpret without proper training. At Woodbury Thermal Imaging, a division of Woodbury Inspection Group Inc., our thermographers carry an ITC level one Certification, a certification recognized as meeting ISO 9001* testing standards.
