Radon Remediation Done in Nevada, Iowa

This home had radon levels of 6.8 and a mostly-finished basement. The client was being proactive and vocal in the event of the house being sold in the future so a radon mitigation is one of his priorities to have done. They already have an ERV/HRV and electronic air filter. The sump pit with interior drain tile on front wall of house. They were a nice couple with two friendly dogs. I guess one will nip at your pants but they kept them leashed most the time I was there! Haha!

Custom Radon Mitigation for Older Homes with Limited Crawlspace Access

After years of home additions and changes, a couple decided it was time to address radon concerns and improve comfort where they sleep. Access to parts of the basement was limited, but a plan was crafted to make the most of the available entry points. A radon extraction point was installed through a storm door addition, and a second point was cored through a basement wall to reach a crawlspace beneath the master bedroom. Extra insulation was added to the rim joists in this area, helping to create a warmer, healthier environment where they spent much of their time. Despite the home’s complex layout and hidden crawlspaces, the custom mitigation solution provided peace of mind and noticeable improvements in air quality.

A Radon Mitigation Story of Health and Safety

After losing her husband to lung cancer, this homeowner became deeply aware of the risks associated with radon exposure. When testing revealed high radon levels in her rental property, she knew action was needed to protect future tenants. Between renters, she took the opportunity to prioritize safety by scheduling radon mitigation. Knowing her efforts could prevent another family from facing the devastating effects of radon brought her peace of mind. For her, mitigation wasn’t just a precaution; it was a meaningful step in creating a safer, healthier space for others. Her story is a powerful reminder of radon’s silent danger.

Radon Mitigation Service Helped My Home

This client knew her area had high radon levels but wanted to get a test first to make sure if her home is affected. Lo and behold, his levels returned higher than expected. He wanted to talk to his family about other options to mitigate and he did share all they said was to get a Radon Mitigation System installed with Iowa Radon Defense. Everything was discussed upfront, no hidden fees or charges or service. There was a dedicated space for the radon fan. Everthing turned out fine.

From Half-Done to Fully Protected: Completing a Radon Mitigation System with Sump Pump Upgrade

This home already had part of a radon system in place, a pipe routed above the sump basin; but it was never fully connected or functional. During our inspection, we found excellent drain tiling beneath the home, making it a perfect candidate for a single-point extraction system. We connected into the existing pipe, sealed floor cracks, and optimized the airflow for maximum radon reduction. Access through the garage made the installation smooth, but the project didn’t stop there. The homeowner also requested a new sump pump and an additional 20-foot discharge line, which we routed neatly alongside the dryer vent and other utilities.

Now, with a complete radon mitigation system and upgraded sump pump in place, this home has both cleaner indoor air and improved water management; two essential defenses for long-term safety and comfort.
