Thermal Imaging in Cottage Grove, Washington County, by Home Inspectors Hastings MN — a 12-minute drive away. Cottage Grove is the community where the documented 3M PFAS groundwater plume makes well-water testing a real closing-table issue for many properties, and we calibrate every visit to that.

Cottage Grove housing runs to mostly 1960s–2000s suburban housing, across the older village core and the newer subdivisions east of Highway 61, on groundwater within the documented 3M PFAS plume area. That mix shapes what a thermal imaging here actually needs to look for — not a generic national checklist.

What our thermal imaging covers

  • Infrared scan of ceilings, walls and floors
  • Hidden moisture behind finished surfaces
  • Missing or settled insulation and air leaks
  • Overheating electrical connections at the panel

What a thermal imaging in Cottage Grove looks for.

Thermal imaging earns its keep on Hastings' older housing — heat loss from balloon-framed and under-insulated 1900s walls shows up clearly, explaining the drafts and the recurring ice dams, and it catches the wet wall behind fresh paint that a flashlight never will.

FAQ

Common questions.

What does thermal imaging add to an inspection?
It finds moisture intrusion, missing insulation and hot electrical connections that are invisible to the eye — without opening walls.
Is it useful on older Hastings homes?
Very — heat loss from balloon framing and under-insulated 1900s walls shows up clearly, explaining drafts and ice dams.
Is thermal imaging included or extra?
We scan key areas during the inspection and can do a dedicated thermal survey on request. Pricing is confirmed up front.
Should I test the well in Cottage Grove for PFAS?
If the home is on a private well in the affected area, yes — PFAS has no taste or smell and only a lab test reveals it.
