A home inspector explains why houses on bluffs feel cold in winter: poor wall insulation and bad window installation. Use an infrared camera during cold weather to spot heat loss through the temperature difference between inside and outside.

Well, the main thing is when you're setting a home up on the bluff, if you don't have really good insulation in those walls, if you don't have any really nicely installed windows, you're gonna feel it inside, especially in the dead of winter. So the one thing that we like to use is something called the infrared camera. And so when we're in the home, and it's actually the best time to do it is when it's cold because you have a temperature differential between the inside and outside.
