Capacitance Roof Moisture Surveys

Precision Moisture Detection for Reflective and Non-Conductive Roofs
Get 100% coverage on reflective single-ply membranes and coatings.
Detect moisture deeper in the system than Infrared Scanning
Comply with ASTM Standard D7954 for quality assurance.

Uncover Hidden Moisture in Challenging Roof Systems

Does your roof have a reflective membrane or moisture deep in the system that makes Infrared Testing unreliable? Advanced Capacitance Roof Moisture Surveys provide highly accurate moisture analysis even on roofing systems that infrared cameras struggle to assess.

Get precise moisture detection on a wide variety of roofing systems, including highly reflective membranes.

At IR Analyzers, we use state-of-the-art electrical capacitance (impedance) meters that utilize both capacitance and resistance technologies. This dual approach ensures the most thorough and accurate results, even for challenging roof types.

Our cutting-edge technology ensures the most accurate results:

  1. Tramex Dec Scanner: This "carpet sweeper" style device allows our technicians to quickly and efficiently scan 100% of large roof areas.
  2. Tramex RWS (Roof and Wall Scanner): A handheld device for spot measurements and hard-to-reach areas.

Both devices provide precise moisture detection, allowing us to create a comprehensive map of your roof's moisture content.

The capacitance scanner attempts to push an electric current through the roofing materials. Dry areas resist the flow of current but wet areas can be pinpointed because the moisture will conduct electricity.

Why Choose Our Capacitance Testing?

Effective on Reflective Surfaces
Capacitance Testing is ideal for testing reflective single-ply membranes and coatings where infrared cameras struggle. Get accurate moisture detection on cool roofs, white membranes, and highly reflective coatings.

EFVM is one of the most advanced and effective methods for flat roof leak detection. It works by applying an electrical current across the roof membrane to identify any breaches. When combined with our roof leak detection equipment, EFVM can quickly and precisely locate any points of water entry for immediate repairs and retesting to confirm a watertight installation.
Dual Technology 
Precision
Our surveys employ both capacitance and resistance measurements, providing a more comprehensive analysis of your roof's moisture content than single-technology approaches.
