Thermal Camera

- The camera will not be used to scan every portion of the home and we are not doing an energy efficiency evaluation on the home. The camera is only a tool that the inspector may or may not use in order to assist in the inspection or verify findings. The camera is utilized at the discretion of the inspector.
