This homeowner in Westhampton, MA called us hoping that we would be able to help her with her radon mitigation system. She wanted to sell her house, however, the radon system they already had installed was non-functioning. She stated that at one point, the system became quite noisy, so she shut it off. When she went to turn it back on, it would not start.
We were able to help this customer. We replaced her old, non-functioning radon fan with a new one. We utilize many different radon fans depending on many different factors. This home required our Festa AMG Maverick fan. Now, this homeowner has a functioning radon mitigation fan, and she will feel confident listing her home on the market!
This homeowner in Windsor, CT called us hoping that we would be able to help him with his home. He had his home's radon levels tested, and it was testing between 2.48 - 3.12 pCi/L. While this is not over the EPA's recommended Radon Action Level of 4 pCi/L, he still was very concerned about his radon level. He stated that he wanted it "as low as possible", in order to make his home safer and more healthy for his family.
We were able to help this customer. We installed a passive radon mitigation system in his home. We began with finding the ideal spot for the mitigation system. After that, we drilled holes -- one in the concrete slab in the basement and one where the pipe will penetrate to the outside. We then installed the pipe, followed by a manometer. The manometer measures the pressure of the radon gas in the mitigation system, indicating whether or not it is functioning correctly. We then installed the fan on the outside of the home. After that, we sealed the cracks, gaps, and holes in the basement. We tested the system before we left to ensure that it was functioning. Now, this homeowner has a brand new mitigation system to keep his levels as low as possible!
This homeowner in Holyoke, MA called us hoping we would be able to help him with radon mitigation. We had already scheduled a project at his home to insulate his basement, and he wanted us to be able to add on a radon mitigation system as well. He had utilized a short term radon test kit, and his radon level came out to be 15 pCi/L. This is much higher than the EPA's recommended radon action level of 4 pCi/L. He stated that he wanted his radon exposure mitigated for his family's health.
We were able to help this customer. We installed a passive radon mitigation system in his home. Once the ideal space for the system was located, our radon mitigation technician was able to install it. He first started by drilling a hole into the concrete slab in the basement. Once the core had been removed, the radon technician installed a pipe and secured it. He also installed a manometer - which measures the pressure of the radon in the system. This is the indicator of whether or not the radon system is functioning correctly. He then drilled a hole for the exterior penetration and installed pipes for that as well. He then went to the outside of the home, installing the fan. The technician then sealed all cracks, gaps, and around the holes drilled for the system. After a quick test of the system, our radon technician was done and the homeowner was happy! Now he has a brand new mitigation system that will keep his radon levels low and his family more safe.
This homeowner in Somers, CT called us hoping that we would be able to come out and help him with a home he had recently purchased. He was renovating the home both inside and out. During the renovations, he decided to test his home for radon. His basement came out to be 4.5 pCi/L, which is above the EPA's Radon Action Level of 4 pCi/L. He wanted to reduce the level to under 4 pCi/L. It was important to him to do this as soon as possible, as he wanted to complete all of the work in the basement at the same time.
We were able to help this customer. We installed a radon mitigation system in his home. We identified a specific room in the basement where the mitigation system would be best installed. We began by drilling the holes in the basement -- both in the concrete slab in the bottom and the hole for the exterior penetration. We then began installing the pipes and secured them inside the basement. He installed the manometer on the pipe on the inside of the home. The manometer measures the pressure of the radon in the system, indicating whether or not it is functioning correctly. After that, he went outside to build the rest of the system. He installed the fan on the outside of the home. Once the system was installed, he went back inside, sealing around all of the cracks and gaps in the basement. He also sealed all of the holes that had been drilled for the system. Now, this homeowner has a radon mitigation system designed to keep their levels low!
