Prevent Problems Before They Cost You: How Assured NDT Uses Thermal Imaging to Protect Your Assets
When it comes to protecting critical infrastructure and maximizing equipment performance, preventive maintenance is essential. At Assured NDT, we use infrared thermography to identify potential failures long before they become expensive disruptions.
This non-invasive technique detects temperature variations in equipment, electrical panels, roofing systems, and more—allowing us to find hidden issues like overheating components, moisture intrusion, and failing insulation.

Why Infrared Thermography Matters for Maintenance Programs
Preventive maintenance is only effective when it’s proactive. Infrared thermography gives property managers, engineers, and business owners a clear visual map of thermal anomalies that signal early signs of wear, damage, or system stress. This technology enables our clients to:
Detect overheating circuits or motors before failure
Pinpoint moisture intrusion in building envelopes or roofs
Identify insulation gaps or HVAC inefficiencies
Reduce downtime and costly emergency repairs
Common Applications of Thermal Imaging in Commercial Maintenance
Assured NDT applies infrared thermography in a wide range of settings, including:
Electrical System Inspections: Discover overloaded breakers, loose connections, or imbalanced phases.
Roof Leak Detection: Identify moisture beneath roofing membranes without invasive testing.
Mechanical System Monitoring: Evaluate bearings, motors, compressors, and pumps for thermal anomalies.
Building Envelope Scanning: Reveal heat loss through walls, windows, and insulation defects.
Benefits of Choosing Assured NDT for Thermal Imaging Services
Non-Destructive Testing (NDT): No need to shut down equipment or tear into walls.
Fast Turnaround: Most inspections can be completed in under a day with minimal disruption.
Detailed Reporting: Our certified thermographers deliver easy-to-understand reports with thermal images and actionable recommendations.
Compliance Support: Helps meet insurance and regulatory standards for ongoing system monitoring.
Maximize Equipment Lifespan, Minimize Downtime
Infrared thermography isn’t just a maintenance tool—it’s an investment in risk prevention and operational efficiency. By identifying invisible problems before they escalate, Assured NDT helps clients extend the lifespan of their assets, reduce operating costs, and improve safety.
