Before & After Photos

Before

The home had no active radon mitigation system at the designated extraction point. The unfinished basement provided access for installing the piping and connecting the system to the gravel beneath the foundation.

After

The one-point system was installed with a Festa Hawk fan mounted outside the home. Interior piping connects to the extraction point, while the exterior piping runs upward along the home’s siding. The system is now in place to help reduce indoor radon levels.

Before

The basement tested at 10 pCi/L, higher than the EPA’s recommended action level of 4 pCi/L. The homeowners wanted to address the elevated reading so they could use the basement with greater confidence.

After

A one-point radon mitigation system was installed using a Festa Hawk fan. The system draws soil gas from beneath the foundation and vents it outdoors through piping routed along the left side of the home behind the chimney. A follow-up radon test is recommended to confirm the system’s performance.

Before

The home has a radon level of 4.3 pCi/L with an existing single-pipe mitigation system in place.

After (Next Step / Status)

No on-site work was performed. Further evaluation would be needed to assess system performance and determine if any adjustments are required.

Before

The home had a radon level of 6.0 pCi/L with no mitigation system in place. A crack near the utility room and garage connection was identified as a potential entry point.

After

A one-pipe radon mitigation system was installed, and the identified crack area was reviewed for proper sealing to help reduce radon entry.

Client moved into their new home, prior testing found the radon reading to be higher than 6 pCi/L. Apex recommended to seal the cracks and to install a radon reduction system. After the radon mitigation system was installed and the radon levels were retested, the reading was less than 2.0 pCi/L.
