See Where Your Energy and Money Are Escaping

In the high-altitude climate of the San Luis Valley, staying warm in winter without breaking the bank is a top priority. Undetected air drafts, missing insulation, and thermal bridging can cause dramatic heat loss—forcing your heating system to work overtime and driving utility bills through the roof.

How We Check for Heat Loss

Using state-of-the-art infrared thermal imaging cameras and precision diagnostic tools, we reveal hidden thermal anomalies that the naked eye simply cannot detect:

• Thermal Imaging Cameras: Reveal surface temperature differentials across interior and exterior walls, ceilings, and floors without invasive drilling or damage.
• Missing or Settled Insulation: Instantly pinpoint hollow spots, uninsulated wall cavities, and compressed attic insulation that compromise your home's thermal boundary.
• Draft & Air Infiltration Detection: Identify leaky window frames, exterior door seals, electrical outlet penetrations, and rim joist air leaks.
• HVAC & Ductwork Leaks: Detect heated air escaping from disconnected or unsealed ducts in crawl spaces, basements, and attics.

Common Heat Loss Culprits

Homes lose heat through multiple vulnerabilities throughout the building envelope:

• Attic Hatches & Cantilevered Floors: Uninsulated access hatches and unsealed floor overhangs allow massive amounts of heat to siphon upward.
• Window Flashing & Door Jambs: Degraded weatherstripping and gaps around frames let cold mountain air rush straight in.
• Basement & Crawlspace Rim Joists: Often overlooked, uninsulated rim joists are among the largest sources of conductive heat transfer.
• Recessed Can Lights & Electrical Boxes: Unsealed ceiling penetrations act as miniature chimneys funneling warm room air into the attic.

Why It Matters

A comprehensive heat loss and thermal imaging inspection gives you actionable answers. Whether you are purchasing a home, planning energy efficiency upgrades, or wondering why specific rooms stay uncomfortably cold, our detailed report helps you seal leaks, lower heating costs, and enjoy a comfortable home year-round.
