Explore the dramatic transformation in radon mitigation in a historic Woodbridge carriage house. Starting with a critical radon level of 17, we undertook extensive repairs to the existing four-pipe system, including replacing a non-functional fan and ensuring all extraction points were thoroughly cleaned and all pipes securely glued. The after photos highlight the upgraded system with new PVC gutters and discreet placement behind lattice work, showcasing our commitment to both safety and historical property aesthetics.
Before: Slightly elevated radon levels at 4.8 pCi/L, cracks in the cement foundation, and no existing sump pump or waterproofing.
After: A cleanly installed 2-pipe radon system with all accessible cracks sealed, ensuring a safer environment for the homeowner’s future finished basement.
Discover the dramatic reduction in radon levels through our before and after gallery of a Bethany home mitigation project. Starting with a high radon level of 14 in a house built in 1964, our intervention involved designing a mitigation system optimized for a home without sump pumps or crawlspaces. The after photos showcase the effective installation that significantly improved the home's air quality, ensuring a safe environment for the new homeowners.
Before Installation:
A residence in Wolcott, CT, faced the common challenge of maintaining optimal indoor air quality. The household experienced issues with stale air, excess humidity in the summer, dryness in the winter, and concerns about energy loss when using traditional HVAC solutions for ventilation. The family was seeking a way to enhance their home environment without incurring exorbitant energy costs.
Our Solution:
We proposed the installation of an Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV) system designed to exchange the stale, indoor air with fresh, filtered outdoor air while conserving energy. Prior to the installation, our team conducted a thorough evaluation of the home to ensure the selected ERV model would perfectly match their space and ventilation needs.
After Installation:
The installation of the ERV system has revolutionized the living environment for the family. Post-installation, the family now enjoys:
Fresh, clean air circulated throughout their home year-round.
Reduced allergens and pollutants, thanks to the ERV's advanced filtration capabilities.
Consistent indoor humidity levels, providing comfort in all seasons.
Energy savings, as the ERV preconditions the incoming air using the energy from the outgoing air.
A quiet and efficient system that seamlessly works with their existing HVAC setup.
