Moisture Mapping is a comprehensive survey that identifies and locates areas of excessive moisture within a building envelope. Moisture can lead to structural damage, mold growth, and other health risks. Moisture Mapping provides a detailed report of the moisture levels in your home, helping you identify and address potential problems. ### How to Locate Moisture in a House? There are several methods used to locate moisture in a home: #### Non-Invasive Methods: - **Moisture Meters:** Handheld devices that measure moisture content in building materials. - **Infrared Cameras:** Detect temperature differences indicating moisture presence. - **Thermal Imaging:** Similar to infrared cameras, but provide more detailed images. #### Invasive Methods: - **Probe Measurements:** Involves inserting probes into building materials to measure moisture levels. - **Core Sampling:** Removing a small sample of building material for laboratory analysis. - **Hygrometers:** Placed in specific areas to measure relative humidity.
