See the Unseen. Uncover Hidden Problems in Your Buildings and Infrastructure.
Many of the most critical and costly issues in buildings and electrical systems are invisible to the naked eye. IE Drone Services uses advanced radiometric thermal drones to reveal a world of hidden information, allowing you to identify problems early, improve efficiency, and prevent catastrophic failures.
Our thermal inspection services provide a fast, safe, and highly effective way to assess the condition of your property, from the rooftop to the foundation.
What Can Thermal Imaging Reveal?
Our high-resolution thermal cameras detect minute differences in temperature, creating a visual map of heat signatures. This powerful data can pinpoint a wide range of issues, including:
Energy Inefficiency
Identify areas of significant heat loss in your building’s envelope, including poor insulation, air leaks, and faulty window seals.
Moisture Intrusion
Detect water leaks in roofs and walls, often before they become visible, by identifying the evaporative cooling effect.
Electrical Faults
Safely inspect electrical components like transformers, breakers, and connections for overheating—a key indicator of impending failure.
Solar Panel Defects
Quickly scan entire solar farms to find defective cells, malfunctioning panels, and faulty connections that impact energy production.
Roofing Integrity
Locate trapped moisture under roofing membranes, which can lead to serious structural damage if left unaddressed.
Our Thermal Inspection Applications
We provide specialized thermal inspection services for a variety of high-value assets:
Building Envelope & Energy Audits
Stop wasting money on heating and cooling. Our thermal energy audits provide a complete picture of your building’s thermal performance. We identify exactly where you are losing energy, allowing you to make targeted repairs that provide an immediate return on investment.
Commercial Roof Inspections
Roof leaks are a primary cause of costly structural damage. Our thermal roof inspections can detect trapped moisture and identify leaks long before they are visible inside the building. This proactive approach to roof maintenance can extend the life of your roof and prevent expensive repairs.
Solar Panel & Farm Inspections
Maximize your renewable energy output. We can rapidly inspect hundreds or thousands of solar panels to identify defective cells, diodes, and other issues that reduce efficiency. Regular thermal inspections ensure your solar farm is operating at peak performance.
Electrical System Inspections
Safely and efficiently inspect high-voltage equipment. Our drones can get close to transformers, power lines, and substation components to detect overheating parts, preventing potential fires and power outages without any risk to personnel.
Looking for Underground Leak Detection?
While our building inspections can identify surface-level thermal anomalies, we also offer a specialized service for locating leaks in underground utility systems.
Our Underground Thermal Leak Detection service is designed specifically for finding leaks in hydronic, steam, and water pipes for municipalities, universities, and large commercial properties.
