Precision aerial inspection and infrared thermography for industrial infrastructure.

Faltech serves utility transmission, renewables, oil and gas, and commercial rooftop operators across Atlantic Canada. We flag thermal anomalies and asset deficiencies before they escalate to failure, and deliver them as structured, trend-ready inspection data.

Equipment rarely fails without warning.

The thermal signature is present long before the fault becomes critical. Traditional visual inspection misses what matters most — the invisible heat patterns that signal electrical, mechanical, and structural degradation.

Drone-based infrared thermography

A non-contact, non-destructive diagnostic tool that reveals what visual inspection can't — from a safe standoff, without scaffolding, lifts, or outage windows.

A complete aerial inspection service, from first flight to final report.

Infrared Thermography

High-resolution thermal imaging for electrical, mechanical, and structural fault detection. Every dataset reviewed and interpreted by a Level II thermographer certified per ASNT SNT-TC-1A.

Visual Inspection

34× optical zoom and laser-verified measurements for close-range inspection of assets traditional climbing methods cannot safely access.

Inspection Reporting

Annotated findings, severity classification per NETA MTS acceptance criteria, and prioritized recommendations — delivered as a complete documentation package suitable for asset records and audit.

Built for Atlantic Canada's industrial infrastructure.

Utility Transmission

Lines, towers, and substation components. Hotspot identification, connector degradation, insulator defects, and splice failures — severity-classified per NETA MTS for substation hardware and industry hotspot conventions for overhead line components.

Wind & Solar

Solar array thermal analysis aligned to IEC 62446-3 outdoor thermography practice. Wind turbine blade and balance-of-plant screening under load — with commissioning baselines that support long-term reliability trending.

Oil & Gas

High-temperature aerial thermography for fired and flare equipment. Measurement to 1600°C with IR density filter — flare tips, fired heaters, refractory, and tank exteriors surveyed live, with no shutdown and no scaffolding. Exterior screening that feeds detailed inspection and turnaround planning.

Rooftop IR

Flat roof moisture mapping, insulation deficiency scans, and post-leak investigations — without scaffolding or interior disruption.

A disciplined process, from scope to report.

Scope

We begin with a structured review of the asset, access constraints, safety requirements, and inspection objectives.

Capture

Site mobilization, regulatory compliance confirmation, flight planning, and simultaneous IR and visual data collection.

Analyze

Level II thermographic review per ASNT SNT-TC-1A. Severity classification against NETA MTS criteria for electrical assets, IEC 62446-3 for solar PV, and industry hotspot conventions for transmission and mechanical systems.

Report

Annotated findings, documented thermal imagery, and a clear set of recommended actions.
