Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Gales Ferry, CT called us hoping she could get someone to take a look at her radon mitigation system. It was non-functioning and she wanted to have it checked out. When our certified radon measurement specialist came out to evaluate the system, he noted that the fan needed to be replaced. However, he also noted that there were several cracks in the floor. Cracks in a basement need to be sealed if you want to mitigate radon exposure. That is because radon can come through the cracks and into the home, circumventing the radon mitigation system.

We were able to help this customer. In addition to the fan replacement, we sealed the cracks in her basement floor. We lined the cracks on either side with painters tape. We then ensured the area was clean. After that, we went in to fill and seal the cracks using caulk. This prevents radon from entering the basement through them -- making sure that it is vented out using the mitigation system. This homeowner is much more happy now that her home's radon mitigation system is functioning! 

This homeowner in Rutland, MA called us hoping that we would be able to help him with testing his home for radon. He wanted to install a mitigation system after testing. However, when our certified radon measurement specialist came out to the home, he noted that there was already a passive radon system installed. When his test came back, the radon measurement specialist found that the homeowner's radon levels came out to 13.1 pCi/L. 

We were able to help this customer. The existing radon system was completely internal -- it was routed up into the attic and out through the roof. We were able to help by adding a radon mitigation fan. This was added to the pipes in the attic. We also replaced the manometer in the basement with a brand new one. (The manometer measures the pressure of the radon gas in the pipe. We tested the system and were done! Now, this homeowner has a functioning radon mitigation system again, and he feels much better about his exposure.

This homeowner in Thompson, CT called us hoping that we would be able to help her with the home she was closing on. During the homebuying process, they found that their radon level fell between 8 and 10 pCi/L on average. This is higher than the EPA's radon action level of 4 pCi/L. She was very uncomfortable about how high the radon level was. She wanted a mitigation system installed immediately -- ideally before they moved into the home. 

We had the perfect solution for this customer! We installed a radon mitigation system in his home. We identified the specific space where the mitigation system should be installed. After that, we drilled a hole in the floor as well as a hole in the wall for the exterior penetration. We put together the pipes, starting in the floor, and built it out through the exterior penetration to the outside. We secured the pipes to the wall, and then installed the manometer onto the pipe. (A manometer measures the pressure of the radon gas in the system, indicating whether or not the system is functioning). We then went outside to continue building out the system. We installed the fan and continued building out the pipes, securing them to the outside of the home. Our technician then sealed around the holes that had been drilled for the system. Now, the homeowner has a brand new radon system for their new home! 

This homeowner in Thompson, CT called us hoping to install a radon mitigation system in her home. Her radon levels were, on average, 8-10 pCi/L. This is much higher than the EPA's radon action level of 4 pCi/L. This was also a new home, that she had just purchased -- and she wanted to ensure that this was taken care of as soon as possible. When our certified radon measurement specialist came out to evaluate the home, he noted that there were several cracks in the floor. Cracks in a basement need to be sealed if you want to mitigate radon exposure. That is because radon can come through the cracks and into the home, circumventing the radon mitigation system.

We then ensured the area was clean. After that, we went in to fill and seal the cracks using caulk.

This homeowner's mitigation system can now keep their radon levels as low as possible!

This homeowner in Thompson, CT called us looking for radon fan replacement. It was no longer functioning, and he wanted it fixed as soon as possible. Our radon specialist came out to the home to identify what was going on with his fan, and what he would need. His fan was unable to be fixed, and it needed to be replaced.

We were able to help this customer! We replaced his old, broken fan with a brand new one. We utilize many different radon fans, depending on the specifics of the home. After identifying the perfect fan, we removed the old one. We then installed the new one in its place. We also replaced the manometer on the inside of the home and labeled the radon pipe appropriately. We finally tested the system to ensure it was functioning. Now, the homeowner is very happy!
