Infrared Cameras: Their Many Angles And Why We Use Them To Mitigate Disaster In Belle Meade

7/12/2022 (Permalink)

Advanced tools and technology are at the crux of our operational efficiency regarding disaster restoration. Long gone are the days when manual cleaning and restoration are carried out. With how rapidly the disaster restoration industry has changed thanks to technology, the IICRC has kept up by introducing psychometry into the set of practical standards that constitute disaster restoration. Among the many tools we use, infrared cameras have a heightened sensitivity to hidden moisture in your Belle Meade property. We have listed some properties of infrared cameras and how we use them to mitigate disaster so you can take control of your life after disaster. 

Deep Dive: How Are Infrared Cameras Used To Detect Signs Of Water Damage? 

• The general idea is that infrared cameras detect moisture that you otherwise wouldn’t see at first. Beyond detection, the camera also saves images so we can reference them during the water damage restoration process. 
• Infrared cameras also allow us to inspect the images to see if your moisture-ridden property has damaged insulation, frayed electrical cords, and air leaks. 
• Many infrared cameras and other thermal imagery software show the affected areas as a distinct shade from the rest of the property, making it easy for us to locate water damage and assess our cleanup efforts. 

How Does SERVPRO Use Infrared Cameras And Other Thermal Imagery Software To Mitigate Damage?

• For us to remove water thoroughly from your home or business, infrared cameras and other thermal imagery software are essential. Water can be hidden in walls, ceilings, and even under floorboards. If not taken care of promptly, mold growth is imminent… in just 48 hours!
• From there, we use moisture detectors and gas-powered pumps for continuous, high-powered water pumping. 
• Infrared cameras also ensure that your Belle Meade home or business is drying out normally with their saved images that we can reference. This step is where we bring our industrial-strength air movers and dehumidifiers to remove excess water and moisture. Proper drying is vital to prevent warped floors and swelled furniture and walls.
