Moisture mapping is a non-invasive method used to detect moisture and moisture-related issues within a building. This process involves using advanced infrared cameras or sensors to capture thermal images that indicate areas of elevated moisture content.
Moisture detection systems rely on thermal imaging technology to identify areas of high moisture levels. When moisture is present in a building, it alters the thermal properties of the affected materials, causing them to emit different amounts of infrared radiation. By analyzing these thermal differences, moisture detection systems can create a moisture map that pinpoints potential areas of concern.
Moisture mapping and detection methods provide valuable insights into the moisture conditions within a building, enabling proactive measures to address potential problems. These methods contribute to improving building health, occupant comfort, and energy efficiency.
