Thermal imaging reveals hidden inefficiencies even in high-spec homes

See the Heat You’re Losing: How Thermal Imaging Reveals Hidden Problems in Luxury Homes

See the Heat You’re Losing

When your home is one of your most valuable assets, small inefficiencies can mean big losses. Even in beautifully built properties, heat can silently escape through roofs, walls and windows — adding hundreds or even thousands to annual energy bills.

At Red Fox Thermal, we use advanced thermographic and heat loss surveys to show you exactly where energy is being wasted. With 20 years of aerospace thermal engineering expertise behind every inspection, our surveys give you a scientific understanding of how your home performs — not guesswork.

Why Large Homes Benefit Most

Bigger homes are often more complex: multiple heating systems, extensions from different eras, intricate glazing, vaulted ceilings and underfloor heating zones. These details can make energy efficiency difficult to manage — and where traditional surveys rely on assumptions, infrared thermography delivers visual proof.

Our high-resolution thermal cameras identify:

  • Missing or poorly installed insulation

  • Air leakage around doors, windows and junctions

  • Cold bridging in structural elements

  • Underfloor heating faults or temperature imbalances

  • Damp and moisture issues invisible to the eye

Each problem is pinpointed precisely, allowing focused improvements rather than broad, expensive works.

Engineering Expertise You Can Trust

Our approach goes far beyond a simple infrared scan. Every Red Fox Thermal survey is carried out by a Category 2 thermographer, qualified to interpret results to professional standards, and supported by an ABBE Level 3 qualification in heat loss surveying.

Before founding Red Fox Thermal, our lead engineer spent nearly two decades designing thermal control systems for spacecraft at Airbus — experience that now underpins every building inspection we perform. This scientific background ensures every report is accurate, evidence-based, and actionable.

What You’ll Receive

Your thermographic survey includes:

  • A detailed report highlighting each anomaly with annotated thermal and visual images

  • Interpretation of causes — insulation gaps, air leakage, or thermal bridging

  • Recommendations for remedial actions or further investigation

  • A clear indication of where you can achieve maximum energy savings

Why Choose Red Fox Thermal

  • Category 2 Thermographer — qualified to survey and interpret complex thermal data

  • Aerospace Thermal Expertise — 20 years of advanced heat management experience

  • High-Resolution Cameras — exceeding UK Thermographic Association (UKTA) standards

  • Comprehensive Reports — tailored for homeowners, architects or retrofit professionals

We understand that privacy, professionalism and discretion are as important as technical accuracy, especially when surveying high-value homes. Our visits are unobtrusive, fast, and always scheduled at your convenience.

Book Early for the Winter Season

Thermography relies on temperature differences between inside and outside, making the colder months ideal. Each year, our calendar fills up quickly once heating systems are switched on.

Now is the perfect time to book your survey.

Discover where your home is losing heat — and gain the knowledge to fix it. Contact Red Fox Thermal to arrange your thermographic and heat loss survey today.
