FLIR Thermal Imaging

What Is a Thermal Imaging Inspection?

Thermal inspections use advanced infrared (IR) cameras and thermal imaging to detect heat signatures across buildings, infrastructure, and mechanical systems. At Shamrock+, we capture this critical data using drone-mounted thermal sensors.

Our drones provide a fast, safe, and non-invasive way to survey properties from straight-on views or overhead. As a result, we identify hidden issues that are not visible during standard inspections.

Thermal imaging reveals moisture intrusion, insulation gaps, electrical hotspots, and roof leaks. This helps property owners, contractors, and facility managers make informed decisions quickly.

Moreover, our thermal inspections support preventive maintenance, energy efficiency assessments, and post-disaster evaluations. We deliver high-resolution thermal maps and detailed reporting for every project.

Using Shamrock+ thermal imaging inspections, you can detect problems early, reduce costly repairs, and ensure building performance. Trust our certified drone pilots and cutting-edge technology to deliver accurate, actionable results.

What Do We Detect?

Thermal imagery reveals what the human eye can’t see.
Our inspections identify:

Roof leaks and trapped moisture
Insulation gaps and energy loss
HVAC malfunctions
Electrical hotspots and overloads
Water intrusion and plumbing failures
Equipment overheating or inefficiency

Thermal inspections help you catch issues early—before they become costly repairs.

Who Uses Thermal Inspections?

At Shamrock+, we provide thermal imaging inspections for a wide range of industries. Our drone-mounted thermal cameras deliver fast, accurate, and non-invasive results. Whether you manage buildings, systems, or construction projects, thermal imaging helps you detect hidden issues before they become costly problems.

🔹 Contractors and Roofers
We scan commercial and residential rooftops to detect leaks, moisture saturation, and heat loss. Our thermal imaging saves time compared to manual testing and pinpoints exact problem areas without damaging the roof.

🔹 Property Managers and Facility Owners
Thermal reports support preventive maintenance. Use thermal imaging to identify insulation issues, HVAC failures, and water leaks—without tearing into walls or ceilings.

🔹 Engineers and Inspectors
Our drones scan entire buildings, pipelines, and solar panel arrays safely and efficiently. Thermal inspections are ideal for pre-construction assessments, warranty checks, and compliance reviews.

🔹 Industrial and Utility Clients
We inspect electrical panels, transformers, and mechanical systems for signs of overheating. Thermal audits help prevent breakdowns, improve safety, and extend equipment life.

Shamrock+ combines drone technology with expert analysis to deliver accurate thermal imaging results—quickly and efficiently.
