Radon Mitigation Before & After Photos

The client initially told us after she got her free estimate that she was terribly busy and didn't have time for a long sales pitch before the appointment. The team spent a couple hours with her, and she was very deep down. There are now people living in the basement and she was concerned with air quality and radon. She teaches college science and works in water treatment. She also cares for two large huskies. She had a crowded basement with an unfinished storage room. There are storage shelves next to sump pit with exterior drain tiles. As per the plan, one will be moved, the other has been built in but they will remove items from the shelf. The team also moved the big shed from her yard, and everything fell into place.

This client wanted an additional active passive radon system installed. The house was clean and small. The team started the process in a small utility room at the bottom of the stairs in their basement and there was an old existing passive system to the right hand side of the sump pit in which you open the lid and the PVC is about 6 in down. The access to the attic is located in the garage which is uncommon. Homeowner does not believe that there is another crawl space but she was open for the team to search. It was a smooth install and everyone went home happy.

This was a virtual appointment due to the weather so the team has no idea what the house looks like. That being said this was pretty much a service call for the homeowner's radon fan only and nothing else. The homeowner told me that the fan had been making these weird and crazy noises on and off for the past year and it was finally time for him to get this taken care of. Should be pretty simple and straight to the point just replacing the piping and the old radon fan.

The technician made a work around for this home as the crawlspace was really tight and the homeowner wanted a single point system. Gladly, there was a sump basin to start with into the soffit. This was discussed with the client and there was a need of drilling an additional hole for the system to fit, client wasn't happy about it but didn't have much of a choice as the draft discussed was not possible due to the truss being there in the attic. The situation was settled, and the client was happy on how it turned out!

This installation was for a young couple that bought their first home. The amazing thing about their story is they had it tested for radon first before moving in. The results turned in 5.5 pCi/L and the home was just built early this year. They wanted the system to be installed in the basement since it's still in the process of finishing. It was not that hard and everything went well!
