Dakota Infrared & Electrical Services - Ankeny's Trusted Electrical Services

Our specialized infrared electrical inspections detect abnormal heat patterns—a key sign of resistance and impending shorts—within your attic wiring long before a failure occurs. Attics in Ankeny experience temperature extremes that can stress wiring. We safely identify overloaded circuits, loose connections, and damaged insulation in these hard-to-reach areas, allowing us to make precise repairs and prevent potential fire hazards.

Older homes and some newer constructions in the area may have outdated or incomplete grounding systems, which are crucial for safety. Our inspection includes a detailed evaluation of your entire grounding system. We check the main panel, outlets, and major appliances to ensure they are properly grounded to protect your family and electronics from power surges and electrical shock, bringing your home up to current safety standards.

You can expect a thorough, neighborly assessment. We'll review your panel, test outlets and GFCIs, examine visible wiring in the attic and basement, and use our infrared camera to scan for hidden hot spots. We focus on the local issues like attic shorts and grounding, explaining our findings in plain language and providing a clear priority list for any necessary repairs to keep your home safe.
