Infrared Thermography

If your project requires infrared thermography, you need results from an agency whose procedures have been independently verified. ACE Building Envelope Design is an FGIA/AAMA-accredited testing agency — our procedures, equipment, and personnel are audited by the Fenestration and Glazing Industry Alliance.

This accreditation ensures results are reproducible, defensible in legal proceedings, and accepted by manufacturers, owners, and courts. Standard reports are delivered within one week of site visits. ACE deploys from offices in Concord, CA and Nampa, ID across our seven-state territory.

Infrared Thermography serves multiple purposes: new construction QA, warranty verification, forensic investigation, and condition assessment. The ASTM International standards framework governs our protocols.

How IR Thermography Reveals Deficiencies

How IR Thermography Reveals Deficiencies is a critical aspect of infrared thermography envelope performance. ACE's forensic experience — investigating failures across hundreds of similar projects — informs every recommendation we make. We know which details succeed and which lead to performance failures because we've documented the outcomes in real buildings.

Our accredited testing and infrared thermography capabilities provide measured evidence that drives informed decisions. Combined with forensic investigation methodology, ACE traces symptoms to root causes with documentation that supports warranty claims and legal proceedings. The ASTM and ASHRAE standards referenced in our work establish the performance framework.

What You're Facing

Infrared Thermography conditions that need professional assessment — with uncertainty about root cause and the most effective resolution path.

How We Address It

ACE's forensic methodology and FGIA/AAMA-accredited testing identify root causes with measured evidence — driving targeted solutions rather than speculative repairs.

What You Get

Confirmed diagnosis, defensible documentation, targeted repair specifications, and post-intervention verification — ending the cycle of ineffective responses.
