Radon Information Before & After Photos

This client is an ICU nurse and was very accommodating. She bought the house earlier this year and radon levels were just over 4. Her parents have been nagging her to get her own radon mitigation system and she is wanting to take care of some home projects before the winter season comes in. The home had a sump pit with a pump and no drain tile. It has 2 inaccessible crawlspaces, currently about 18 inches tall, with no open access. The homeowner is unaware that she had crawlspaces! You really learn something new every day. It was smooth installation!

This project was fully paid for upfront as the homeowner decided to get his radon mitigation system installed the earliest before winter strikes. The installation started when the pipe was routed out from the sump pump through the drywall and then through the son's closet's top shelf. The homeowner was asking to hide the PVC piping as much as possible so they could still use the top shelf storage. The radon fan will be out through the side of the home towards the patio side out on up. He was concerned about the aesthetic but with there's nothing our techs can do. Everything was in shape!

Met with Jennifer in this old farm house. A lot of stuff in unfinished basement and hard to get around and see things. Found out at the end that there is a sump pit under the stairs but could not view or access. The technician was told lid is nearly air tight so seal around it with caulking. Returned with radon levels of 24 and frequent health concerns. Jennifer was concerned about indoor air quality, humidity, and was all ready to move forward with their own radon mitigation system.

This radon mitigation installation is a 3-point system two of which will be on the far wall of the storage room in the basement and one run going to the sump pump around the corner. Customer is right on levels where between 20 to 30 - it's relatively high. He said results were fluctuating but lingering on the high side. Extraction point is in the back corner of the house he was looking to have it hidden in the cutout section of the corner if possible. The team advised client that they needed to see if that was a possibility due to the Copper fight being in the way. He said worst case scenario just go straight out next to it and running up alongside the gutter. It worked out and everyone was happy as the installation went on swiftly.

This is a two-point system one point will be exiting via the sump pit in waterproof storage room and a second point will be connected to this into the adjacent bedroom. The sump will need to be sealed and the team recommended taking a look at the second sump that they have. It was checked and sealed up perfectly fine and didn't need to do anything else with it. Homeowner was also looking into an ERV option but is currently out of the budget and also with doing some additional research on our free DC filter might be worth it than paying extra. The installation went well.
