Thermal Imaging in Alden

Thermal Imaging in Alden, Hardin County, by Closer Look Inspectors — a 130-minute drive away. Alden is an Iowa River mill town of older homes upstream of Iowa Falls, and we calibrate every visit to that.

Thermal imaging uses an infrared camera to surface hidden moisture, missing insulation and overheating electrical connections — and it is available on Closer Look inspections.

Tuned to Alden.

Alden housing runs to older mill-town homes along the Iowa River, across the core near the river, on Iowa River valley upstream of the Iowa Falls gorge — and that mix shapes what a thermal imaging here needs to find. Instrument-grade tools, a local eye, every visit.

Local conditions in Alden

Alden sits on Des Moines Lobe till — heavy, poorly drained clay that holds water against foundations and moves with moisture, which is what drives basement seepage and foundation cracking across central Iowa. Alden sits in Hardin County, and Iowa has the highest average indoor radon level of any state — the Iowa DNR puts roughly five in ten Iowa homes above the 4.0 pCi/L action level, and Iowa sellers must disclose known radon results on the property disclosure. Finished basements concentrate it, and only a 48-hour test gives you this home's number. Footings here are set below a frost line of roughly 42 inches in northern Iowa, and that annual freeze-thaw cycle drives the settlement cracks and ice-dam wear we calibrate every Alden visit to find.

Questions

Common questions.

Do you offer thermal imaging?
Yes. Infrared scanning is available as an add-on.
What does it actually find?
Moisture tracking behind finishes, gaps in insulation, and hot electrical connections that are invisible to the naked eye.
Do you cover Alden?
Yes — Hardin County is in range with no travel fee. River-adjacent lots get grading and past water intrusion established first, and the mill-era older stock gets its services, chimneys and foundations dated precisely.
