CAPABILITIES

What We Detect

Moisture Intrusion

Identify hidden water infiltration in roofs, walls, and foundations before it causes structural damage to luxury mountain properties.

Insulation Gaps

Pinpoint missing or degraded insulation in building envelopes — critical for energy efficiency in Colorado's harsh mountain and high-altitude climates.

Solar Panel Hotspots

Detect failing cells, bypass diode issues, and connection defects across solar arrays without scaffolding or panel removal.

Energy Loss Points

Map thermal bridging, air leaks, and HVAC inefficiencies to reduce heating costs across Colorado's mountain communities and high-altitude climate zones.

Roof Membrane Defects

Non-invasive inspection of commercial and residential roofing systems to identify delamination, ponding, and wear patterns.

Electrical Faults

Detect overheating connections, overloaded circuits, and failing components in electrical infrastructure from a safe aerial vantage.

FAQ

Common Questions

What can a thermal drone inspection detect?

Our radiometric thermal sensor detects temperature differences as small as 0.05°C, revealing moisture intrusion, insulation gaps, air leaks, solar panel hotspots, electrical faults, and roof membrane defects — all invisible to the naked eye.

How does radiometric thermal imaging work?

Unlike basic thermal cameras, our Zenmuse H30T captures calibrated temperature data for every pixel. This means we deliver precise temperature measurements, not just colorful images — allowing engineers to quantify heat loss and identify specific problem areas.

What are the best conditions for a thermal drone inspection?

Optimal conditions include early morning or evening flights when ambient temperature differentials are greatest. We avoid rainy or windy conditions. Colorado's climate — especially at altitude — provides excellent contrast for building envelope inspections in fall and winter.

What deliverables do I receive from a thermal inspection?

You receive annotated thermal imagery, radiometric data exports, a written report with findings and recommendations, side-by-side visual/thermal comparisons, and high-resolution overview maps of inspected areas.

How does drone thermal inspection compare to manual methods?

Drone thermal inspection covers more area faster, eliminates scaffold and lift costs, provides consistent aerial perspective, and captures calibrated data across entire building surfaces. A full roof inspection that takes a crew half a day can be flown in 30 minutes.
