Infrared Camera
I use my infrared camera on all my inspections. Most home inspectors do not have an infrared camera because of the cost. Even low end cameras are $3000. Mine cost me $6000. It is not a high end camera (some are well over $15000) but it has a lot of features that help me inspect your home. See below some examples:
Below is a bathroom ceiling that is not easily assessable in the attic. See next picture that shows no insulation is part of this ceiling.
Below is what the Infrared camera saw. The lighter areas are areas where insulation is missing or is not thick enough. The attic area above the ceiling was hard to access and the insulation was installed on half of ceiling area (darker colored).
The picture below shows moisture present at a window frame. NO staining was present and I never would of found it without the infrared camera. Found on a one year old home, the area was checked for a moisture with a moisture meter to confirm it's presence. The dark blue/purple areas are where moisture is active.

The picture below was taken after a 50 amp breaker was thrown. A loud noise and a very bright flash resulted. The house was a forclosure my client was wanting top purchase. The previous owners did many things inside the panel including driving a screw into one of the 50 amp wires. I am very careful now days when inspecting forclosed property.
The below picture is where a roof leak was spotted, can you see it?
The below infrared picture clearly shows where the leak is. The darker color is where the leak is located. Can you see it now?
The below picture shows a hot wire in a main electrical panel. The reason was only a loose wire but a fire hazard it was.
