Thermal Imaging: What That Cold Spot Really Means
When a home inspector scans your walls with a thermal camera, those vibrant swirls of blue, red, and yellow aren’t just eye-catching—they’re telling a deeper story. So what does it mean when a cold spot shows up on thermal imaging? Is it just a draft… or something more?
🔍 What Is a Cold Spot?
Cold spots appear when an area’s surface temperature is noticeably lower than its surroundings. On a thermal image, these typically show up as blue or purple blobs. But interpreting them correctly requires more than just a glance—it requires context, expertise, and experience.
🚧 Possible Causes of Cold Spots
Here’s what a cold spot might reveal:
🧠 Why Interpretation Matters
Seeing a cold spot is just the start. Understanding what it means—and whether it requires action—depends on pairing the image with physical inspection. For example, moisture meters, insulation probes, and attic evaluation help validate what the infrared lens suspects.
At Three S Home Inspection, we don’t just hand you colorful images—we provide a clear narrative backed by data, experience, and actionable guidance.

After our inspector walks through the home with you, they will explain the general condition of the home and it’s systems to you and your agent. They will highlight and talk through any major issues that need to be addressed. They will also mention the items that you should keep an eye on for future maintenance. All of this will be detailed in our easy-to-read Spectora report, that will be delivered in HTML and/or PDF format. The report will allow you to review the items we discussed, providing images for reference.
