THERMAL IMAGERY AND MOISTURE DETECTION

Recently, ServiceMaster Recovery Systems has been utilizing some very exciting technology. Many of our clients have asked about thermal imagery and how it can be utilized not only during a water event but for maintenance purposes. With today's marketplace and economy, it is imperative for a business to be proactive and take measures to minimize risk. An ounce of prevention can save thousands of dollars down the road.

This is where ServiceMaster Recovery Systems can help. We have recently began performing annual and bi-annual maintenance checks for various companies. This includes large hotel chains, timeshare villas and condominium associations. Using our thermal imaging cameras, we are able to scan the entire interior of a building to determine if moisture is present. If moisture is detected, not only can we determine where it is coming from but how elevated the moisture levels are. This allows the building owner to pinpoint the area that needs to be repaired and helps us determine the proper amount of equipment needed to dry the affected area. If this area were to be left untreated or never detected to begin with, the damages could be more severe and costly down the road. Proactive maintenance on any building is always the best practice.

ServiceMaster Recovery Systems frequently runs thermal imagery pricing specials on our web site. The inspections are not intrusive and can be done with relative ease in minimal time. As always, a full report is included with each inspection and pictures from the inspection are included in the report.
