Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need thermography for 40-year recertification in Miami, Broward, or Palm Beach?

In many South Florida recertification projects, Level II thermography is required when the building has electrical service rated at 400 amps or greater. This is especially common in Miami-Dade and Boca Raton. Requirements can vary by city, building type, and engineer direction, so it is important to verify the exact requirement for your property.


In Broward County, it is not required yet, but cities are changing requirements and may become standard soon.

How fast can we schedule an inspection?

We typically schedule inspections with at least 48 hours’ notice and provide reports within 48 hours after the inspection. Larger buildings, multifamily complexes, or properties with multiple electrical rooms may require additional time. Call us directly so we can review the property details and provide the next available appointment.

What do I need to get a quote?

To provide an accurate quote, we need the property address, the number of electrical rooms, and the approximate number of panels in each room. If available, photos of the electrical rooms, panel schedules, or prior recertification documents can also help us review the scope more quickly.

What is the 400 amp rule for thermography?

Buildings with electrical service rated at 400 amps or greater may require Level II thermography as part of the recertification process. The inspection helps identify overheating electrical components, loose connections, overloaded circuits, and other conditions that may not be visible during a standard visual inspection.

Who performs the infrared inspection?

Our inspections are performed by Level II certified thermographers using professional infrared equipment for electrical and building-related thermography.

What does electrical thermography help identify?

Thermography can help identify abnormal heating patterns related to loose connections, overloaded circuits, failing components, and other conditions that may require further electrical evaluation.

Do you provide a report?

Yes. We provide a professional thermography report with infrared images, visible-light reference photos when applicable, and documented findings for review by the appropriate professionals.

How fast can I get the report?

Report timing depends on the size and complexity of the property, but our process is designed for fast scheduling, efficient inspections, and prompt report delivery. Usually, we return reports in 48 hours. For urgent recertification deadlines, contact us directly so we can review the scope and timeline.

Do you provide thermography for condos and commercial buildings?

Yes. We work with condominium associations, property managers, commercial building owners, engineers, and architects throughout Miami, Broward, Palm Beach, and surrounding areas.

Who needs Level II thermography?

Level II thermography is commonly needed by condominium associations, HOAs, commercial building owners, property managers, engineers, architects, and multifamily properties involved in building recertification, milestone inspections, or electrical safety evaluations. It is required when the electrical service is rated at 400amps or greater.

What electrical equipment is included in the inspection?

The inspection may include switchgear, switchboards, panelboards, transformers, disconnects, transfer switches, gutters, feeders, busways, and other electrical distribution equipment. The exact scope depends on the building and recertification requirements.

Do you have to open electrical panels for thermography?

For recertification inspections, panels and electrical equipment often need to be opened so the thermographer can evaluate internal conductors, terminations, breakers, and connections. Because this involves energized electrical equipment, building maintenance staff or a licensed electrician may be needed on site to assist with safe access.

Do you need access to individual units?

In most cases, no. Recertification thermography usually focuses on common-area electrical systems, main service equipment, distribution panels, switchgear, and electrical rooms. Individual unit access is generally not required unless specifically requested by the engineer or authority having jurisdiction.

How long does a thermography inspection take?

The inspection time depends on the number of panels, electrical rooms, buildings, and systems being evaluated. A smaller building may take about two hours, while larger multifamily, commercial, or high-rise properties may require several hours or a full day.

What happens if the inspection finds overheating or electrical issues?

Thermal anomalies are common and often repairable. Typical issues include loose connections, overloaded circuits, corroded components, unbalanced loads, or aging electrical equipment. A licensed electrician can make repairs, and a follow-up evaluation can help verify that temperatures returned to acceptable levels.

Is an electrical thermal anomaly a fire hazard?

It can be. Elevated electrical temperatures may indicate resistance, overheating, or component failure. These conditions can increase the risk of equipment damage, failure, or fire, especially when the condition involves energized electrical distribution equipment.

Level 1 deficiencies should be addressed immediately. The affected circuit or equipment should be evaluated by a licensed electrical contractor, and the circuit may need to be shut off or taken out of service until the condition is corrected and verified as safe.

What does a thermography inspection cost?

Pricing depends on the number of panels, buildings, electrical rooms, access requirements, and report scope. Smaller projects may start around $850, while larger multifamily, commercial, or high-rise projects may cost more depending on complexity. The best way to price the inspection is to request a quote with the building address and available electrical information.
