Thermal Imaging in Malcom

Thermal Imaging in Malcom, Poweshiek County, by Closer Look Inspectors. Malcom is a small rail town of older homes between Grinnell and Brooklyn, and we calibrate every visit to that.

Infrared thermal imaging uses a calibrated thermal camera to surface hidden moisture, missing insulation and overheating electrical connections — available as an add-on or as a stand-alone thermal imaging inspection.

Split-level home with stone facing on a sloped lot — Thermal Imaging in Malcom, IAMalcom
Calibrated

Tuned to Malcom.

Malcom housing runs to early-1900s farm-town homes with scattered postwar additions, across the compact town core, on rolling loess-mantled till of the Southern Iowa Drift Plain — and that mix shapes what a thermal imaging here needs to find. Instrument-grade tools, a local eye, every visit.

Local conditions in Malcom

Iowa runs no municipal time-of-sale inspection ordinance, which makes an independent inspection the only thorough, buyer-side read on a Malcom home. Malcom sits in Poweshiek 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 36 to 42 inches, and that annual freeze-thaw cycle drives the settlement cracks and ice-dam wear we calibrate every Malcom 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 Malcom?
Yes. Around Malcom the heavy drift-plain clay holds water against foundations, so basement seepage and settlement cracks get a hard look, along with the original wiring and plumbing common in early-1900s homes.
