Radon Information Before & After Photos

This job was quite a challenge since it was a complicated installation. Our team has some difficulty looking for a better routing system for the ERV (Energy Recovery Ventilator) but we still made sure the options are discussed with the customer. We were able to find a work around with the routing and the customer was happy about it since they are to build a shelf at some point. The home had a very interesting design and basement structure. All went smoothly! 

This was a real estate transaction as the homeowner had already sold the home and finished building her new one. The new owner requested the fact that the home should be coming with a radon mitigation system installed. They booked with Iowa Radon Defense for the installation and the real estate agent approved it right away. Everything was at the buyer's expense but as long as it's quality, they're okay with it.

This is a single point system which will be going in the utility room. This room is by itself and some pit is directly in the corner of the wall that he will be exiting. This will run along the side of the house and only go about halfway up due to the height of the home. Radon level in the home was a 3.8 to 4 and it was looking to do this because they have a newborn on the way and concerned about overall health of him and the family. I did talk to him about a BEZ filter although he told me he needed to do a little bit more research on this. Everything went well!

This client is a nice woman in her 60s with a southern accent. She has some difficulty hearing so she needed some assistance with how this installation would go through. The basement is about half finished with a wood shop and a storage room. The team installed in the two sump pits with interior drain tile along with a custom Breathe EZ 25x30x1. Levels of 10 found and concerned with health risk since she is elderly. The client also spends more time in the basement because she has a sewing room there. The installation was smooth! 

This project was a hard one as we were bidding against four different people. Our lead tech Rusty, ended up selling this as well as a Breathe EZ due to bedrooms and kids being in the basement. I think it was the deciding factor from a health standpoint. The one thing that I am concerned about is the quotes that he received from other competitors. Rusty did let Eric know that we can match other companies prices if he were to give us the other quotes for our price assurance guarantee. The other issue on this house is the exit point for an exterior system would initially come out under the deck so that would mean the team would have to make a quick 90° out to the right hand side more towards the center of the home. The third complication on this home is that he is too sump pumps. One is sealed up in a wooden box and looks to be very tight so I did not mess with it. The second one is in the utility room which will need to be sealed up like normal. Rusty did let the homeowner know that we can start with a single point to see how well write all levels will drop even though he has elevated levels with a strong recommendation to put into points. Price was a pretty big factor in all this but still glad he ended us choosing us for quality.
