Radon Mitigation Before & After Photos

Quick ERV Installation

This client's family struggled with stale air and allergy flare-ups for quite sometime. After researching about indoor air pollutants, they decided to install an ERV. Instantly, fresh air flowed through their home, reducing dust and improving health. They breathed easier, grateful for the comfort and peace it brought.

This was a simple installation as the homeowner's wife was really concerned about the high radon exposure during the winter season. She called up Iowa Radon Defense and asked for a quote. They were happy with the pricing and discussed the drafted plan with them. Everything was virtual as they knew their home very well and provided all the photos needed for the team to reference to. They will be on vacation during Thanksgiving, so they wanted this to be done before that starts. The wife was happy about the team cleaning up before leaving as she thought she would be doing it. Everything went well!

This project is a single-point system at Moby going out of the back side of the house. The HVAC system some pit are located in the center wall of the basement. Homeowner currently works downstairs and has a family which is the reason why they're looking to have a system there -- for extra protection. The sump pit is needed to be covered by a piece of plexiglass as I believe it is too small with where it is located to put an actual cover on. The homeowner did have interest in her filter budget was a concerned so could be worth a follow-up after the installation. He was a really straightforward but nice to talk to!

This project is fairly straightforward with a 2-point system. The reason why this project needs to be pushed out for an install is that he is finishing a porch / sunroom small area on the side of his home. Homeowner, Austin, wanted the contractor to pretty much finish this project up before installing our radon system. The team did let him know that we operate separately it will not interfere with anything that his contractor would be doing if they were finishing up. There is an interesting some pit that needs to be sealed that isn't all that deep. There was some hesitation on where to put the extraction point but the team made it work. A recommendation of going out directly on the wall near the sun pit although he mentioned the possibility of running line to the far side of the home. The homeowner wanted to make sure there is no entryway for radon in his home.

The client, with a background in HVAC, discussed plans for his home, originally lifted and dropped back on a foundation, causing a spike in radon levels. With the downstairs undergoing renovation, he aims to hide the radon system in the ceiling near the joist, dropping it down about a foot and a half. Three extraction points are planned: one from the sump area, extending to a storage area, and the third running towards the staircase, exiting near the sliding door. The client will handle drywalling a portion himself, prioritizing a concealed installation. He'll be present during the installation for any adjustments or complications. Given initial levels of 20 and occasional deviations, a cautious approach involves implementing a 3-point system.
