3 CONTENTS SCOPE OF INSPECTION INSPECTOR S REPORT THERMOGRAPHIC REPORT APPENDIX 3/11

4 SCOPE OF INSPECTION Report Master Inspections This thermographic inspection is solely undertaken for the purpose of detecting thermal irregularities or anomalies that may be caused by past or current termite infestation. The thermal imaging camera uses infrared technology to detect variances in infrared radiation being emitted from the surface being surveyed. It cannot see through walls and therefore cannot determine the extent of any structural timber damage. However, if, during the inspection, water leaks, moisture issues or timber damage are discovered, these will be noted in the report. The inspection covers all accessible internal areas of the dwelling and would not normally, unless stated in the report, include any other areas: NOTE: This thermographic report cannot be relied upon on its own and must be read in conjunction with the Visual Termite or Timber Pest Inspection Report in accordance with AS or AS /11

5 INSPECTOR S SUMMARY Weather Conditions: Approximate temperature: degrees Celsius and overcast Areas Inspected: All accessible area within the dwelling. Inspection Information: Inspection carried out Thursday 29th October pm. Dwelling Information: Single story, brick veneer dwelling Observations: During the inspection, no thermal evidence of termite activity was found. There was no sticker in the meter box to indicate that a treatment was or has been carried out. Recommendations: Appropriate termite management should be carried out. 5/11

9 APPENDIX Benefits of Thermography Non-contact as the camera passively reads the surface temperature of the surface you are pointing at, it does not send out a ray. Images are obtained without disturbing the structure it does not touch or affect the surface, there is no need to punch holes, change structures or disturb nests. Very sensitive to problem characteristics heat can be the best way to detect if the building needs attention. Detect problems before significant damage and a building may show a heat spot due to a lead or termite infestation. Can scan large areas quickly you are able to scan a room quickly compared to a contact moisture meter. Identifies specific location as thermography will show an image you can quickly identify a hot spot accurately. Thermography can also be used in research and development, electrical equipment, UPS systems, PC board developments, electrical motor bearings and windings, HVAC equipment, duct work and vents, Building science including water restoration, mould remediation, building inspections, roof leaks, electronic, medical, insulation heat loss and ventilation. 9/11

10 10/11 Limitations of Thermal Imaging Report Master Inspections Thermal imaging is a tool that should only be used in conjunction with a Visual Inspection in accordance with either AS or AS Infrared Thermography is a detection process that converts invisible heat (infrared radiation) energy in to a visible image defined by heat radiated. All objects emit infrared radiation which is proportional to the temperature of the object. The thermal imaging process detects temperature differences between objects. If there is no temperature difference or the difference is outside the range of the detection device the process cannot differentiate between objects. On viewing part of a structure the outlines of the viewed areas represent what is expected for that structure (eg the wall framing behind gyprock). The device may identify temperature irregularities within its operating range in the structure. Such irregularities may represent dampness, water leaks, piping, insulation, cabling or foreign materials such as termite mudding or heat from appliances. Where irregularities are found they will require further investigation which is outside the scope of this Report. When a heat irregularity is detected, an attempt to identify the source will be made with a non-invasive Timber Pest Inspection tools normally used by a Timber Pest Inspector. Where a non-obvious thermal irregularity is found it is strongly recommended that a more invasive inspection is carried out, which may include drilling and bore-scope inspection to cavity areas or recommending a builder to remove wall lining, lifting carpet, cutting traps, removing brickwork or cladding. The Thermal Image Camera and the inspection are subject to but not limited to the following limitations: The thermal imaging inspection is solely undertaken to the internal areas of the dwelling for the identification of thermal irregularities that may or may not indicate working caused by termites. In some cases

11 Termite activity or workings may be present but the infestation may not be enough to create a higher surface temperature on the wall being scanned. This may occur where an infestation is not active or has not been active for some time prior to the Thermal Inspection. Local conditions may cause termites to come and go and this is typical termite behaviour. Therefore, in these cases, the area of the wall may not register a higher temperature on the Thermal Camera. The Thermal Camera will not provide accurate results on reflective surfaces or glass. 11/11
