Online & In-Class Infrared Training
Infrared Inspection Certification Training for Home Inspectors, Electricians, and Contractors
United Infrared, Inc. provides industry-leading Infrared Inspection Certification Training for professionals who want to add advanced thermal imaging capabilities to their services. Our certification programs are designed for home inspectors, electricians, HVAC technicians, contractors, and facility managers who want to identify hidden problems using infrared thermography and turn those skills into profitable inspection services.
What Is Infrared Inspection Certification?
Infrared inspection certification is professional training that teaches you how to use thermal imaging cameras to detect issues that are invisible to the naked eye. Certified thermographers learn how to properly operate infrared equipment, interpret thermal patterns, and document findings in a way that supports accurate inspections and reporting.
This certification is widely used in residential, commercial, and industrial environments where early detection of system failures, moisture intrusion, and energy loss can prevent costly repairs.
What You Learn in Our Certification Program
United Infrared’s training goes beyond basic camera operation. Our certification program focuses on real-world application and inspection readiness.
- Fundamentals of infrared thermography and heat transfer
- Proper operation of infrared cameras and imaging tools
- Electrical system inspection and hotspot detection
- HVAC system performance and failure analysis
- Roof moisture and leak detection techniques
- Building envelope and insulation evaluation
- Energy loss and efficiency analysis
- Industrial and preventative maintenance applications
Industries That Use Infrared Inspection Certification
Infrared thermography is used across multiple industries where early detection and non-invasive diagnostics are critical.
- Home inspection and real estate evaluation
- Electrical contracting and system maintenance
- HVAC diagnostics and performance testing
- Roofing and building envelope inspections
- Commercial facility management
- Industrial maintenance and manufacturing
Certified inspectors are able to identify issues such as overheating electrical components, hidden moisture, air leakage, insulation defects, and mechanical inefficiencies before they become major failures.
Online and In-Person Certification Options
United Infrared offers flexible training options designed for working professionals.
- Self-paced online infrared certification courses
- Live hands-on training sessions
- Field-based inspection scenarios
- Nationwide certification availability
This blended approach ensures students gain both technical knowledge and real-world inspection experience using professional-grade infrared equipment.
Infrared Cameras and Equipment Training
A key part of certification is understanding how to use professional thermal imaging equipment. United Infrared provides training on industry-leading infrared systems including Teledyne FLIR, Fotric Thermal Intelligence, and HIKMicro Thermal Imagers.
These tools allow inspectors to visualize temperature differences and identify problems such as:
- Electrical overheating and circuit failure risks
- HVAC inefficiencies and airflow problems
- Roof leaks and moisture intrusion
- Energy loss through insulation gaps
- Structural and building envelope defects
Why Get Infrared Inspection Certified?
