Dear Mr. Rose:

Included is the report for the recent Moisture Find IR that we performed on your property. Property Inspectir is proud to assist

you in helping locate your water leaks as well as the extent of your moisture issue.

This Property Inspectir report is designed to be clear, easy to

understand and helpful. If there is anything you would like for our Thermographer to explain, or if there is other information you would

like, please feel free to call us 877-466-0272 or directly at my cell number listed below.

We thank you for the opportunity to be of service to you.

Sincerely,

J Harnage John Harnage 279-282-3194c / 877 SCAN 447

Understanding Infrared Imagery and Thermography

General

This inspection report reflects the conditions of the property at the time of the survey

only. Additional or concealed defects or leaks are not included in this report, therefore

no warranty is either expressed or implied, however an earnest effort was made to

discover defects.

When an image is taken by our infrared camera, it is recorded on the internal memory of

the camera and later converted to a digital image file with the assistance of a computer.

The image may be then modified in a number of ways to enhance its value to the end

user. In the case of this report, the images were digitized and then adjusted for contrast

and brightness before being scaled and placed into our custom program and later

converted to this PDF file.

Analysis

Property InspectIR was contracted to find underground leakage of your supply line. Our

survey of the property within the time frame was focused on the main water line into the

office building. Conditions must present themselves in a manner that the heated water

introduced over an extended period of time must be imaged steadily to determine the

change in ground temperature. These changes are captured and thousands of

temperatures are reviewed to determine the location of a leak.

Every attempt was made to image property according to the Moisture Inspect IR

standard; however, due to circumstances beyond our control this might not have been

possible. For example, weather conditions, ground temperatures, or underground springs

may hamper the imaging results.

Recommendations

Property InspectIR recommends all areas showing anomalies should be reviewed to find

out the cause and repaired. Our recommendations are not intended as criticisms of the

property, but rather as professional opinions regarding conditions that we found.

Conditions which affect performance and life safety issues (if any) are of course, of the highest priority.

Areas that leakage was detected should be reviewed and repairs conducted by a licensed plumbing company. Once these typical repairs are completed it is not unusual for other leaks to occur or become more prevalent. You should continue to monitor your water bills and if possible attempt to recoup some of your losses due to the leak, depending on the magnitude of the leak.

Orientation

We will describe the locations of the various features of this property, left or right, etc., as

though we were standing in street looking at the front of building.

Information Contained On the Thermographic Report Pages

Through the use of thermal imaging, we have found areas with anomalies. These

anomalies have been notated on the individual thermographic reports that follow

(typically, two per page). Infrared thermographs and visual photographs were taken

during survey. If we did not find a reportable anomaly, we did not create a thermographic

report.

Interpretation

When viewing IR images, anomalies commonly present where the conditions exist and/or

where our reference (arrows or area boxes) are located. When IR images are taken during

colder months (winter), the areas of deficient insulation look darker. When IR images are

taken during warmer months (summer), the areas of deficient insulation look lighter.

“Moisture Intrusion”

*Areas of darker temperatures are generally noted as water intrusion as shown.

*In underground leak detection we will introduce heated water to allow the area to

become hotter than the surrounding areas thus allowing us to detect a change in

temperatures.

Location: Rear of property

Where: Above right window as indicated

Condition: Temperatures indicate the presence of moisture during imaging

Recommendation: Increase gutter slope in area as well as add drip edge

Close-up Thermal Photo of area to repaired

Repairs Conducted:

Repairs Conducted:

Location: Rear of property at middle window upstairs

Where: Interior wall under window ledge

Condition: Areas indicated appeared to be moisture within the wall system. The image to

the left shows presence from moisture penetration above window area. Image to the right is

from cracked brick on ledge of window and prior to introduction of hot water.

Recommendation: Seal brick ledge and conduct repairs to roof drainage in area.

Location: Rear of property

Where: Brick ledge after introduction of hot water into cracked brick ledge

Condition: Water is free flowing into wall system

Recommendation: Seal brick ledge to help prevent moisture penetration.

Repairs Conducted:

Repairs Conducted:

Location: Interior of property

Where: Kitchen ceiling to the left of sink

Condition: Shows path of hot water infiltration into ceiling area after being introduced

upstairs at ledge area.

Recommendation: Monitor the area once repairs are made for further penetration.

Location: Interior of property

Where: Kitchen ceiling to the left of sink

Condition: Shows path of initial hot water infiltration into ceiling area after being introduced upstairs at

ledge area

Recommendation: Monitor the area once repairs are made for further penetration.

Repairs Conducted:

Repairs Conducted:

Location: Interior of property

Where: Kitchen ceiling to the left of sink

Condition: Areas indicated are moist areas from previous and current moisture penetration.

Recommendation: Monitor the area once repairs are made for further penetration.

Additional Thermal photos of area

Repairs Conducted:

Location: Attic area

Where: Roof sheathing at area of missing trim on exterior

Condition: Minor moisture penetration at to corner as indicated

Recommendation: Replace trim properly to help prevent moisture penetration.

Roof penetration at exhaust. Showed minimal moisture penetration.

Repairs Conducted:

Location: Rear of home in crawl space

Where: To the right side of sink.

Condition: Shows discoloration of wood from previous leakage

Recommendation: Monitor the area during ownership for further water penetration as it can

lead to long term wood rot.

Location: Rear of home in crawl space

Where: Directly under kitchen sink.

Condition: Floor joist notched for exhaust of furnace system under home

Recommendation: The area should have some additional support installed to hel p prevent

floor sag in the area.

Repairs Conducted:

Location: Crawl space area

Where: Leading from laundry room area

Condition: Dryer venting has failed

Recommendation: Should be replaced and properly supported

Location: Attic area

Where: Above middle window at rear of home

Condition: Roof system showed signs of previous moisture

penetration with minor wood rot.

Recommendation: Monitor the area after repairs are conducted

to gutter system and installation of drip edge.
