Homeowner Joan has lived in her home for many years. She had a radon system installed in her home by MidAmerica Basement Systems a few years ago. After the winter months, she noticed some broken pipes outside her home and she wanted to get them fixed right away. Service Technician Kyle McCarty made sure that Joan's systems was working properly checking all of the inside and outide parts before replacing the piping. It is important to have annual maintenance done on your system to make sure that they are properly working and to ensure that they last a long time.
In Garrison, IA, this home was overdue for some essential TLC. High radon levels were more than just a statistic—they were a constant drain on the family’s peace of mind. No one should feel like a guest in their own home is an invisible hazard.

Robert had some concerns about the radon levels in his home and decided it was a good idea to install a radon mitigation system. Radon is a radioactive, colorless, odorless and tasteless noble gas that occurs naturally as radium decays. Radon can be present in and outside of your home. Exposure to radon most commonly comes from being indoors.

In the before photo, notice the struggled of a Washington, IA home with high levels of radon seeping in through the crawl space. The issue compromised indoor air quality and posed a potential health risk. We tackled the problem head-on by installing a thorough mitigation system complemented by CleanSpace encapsulation. By incorporating the CleanSpace system with drainage matting and the mitigation system, we've transformed this formerly troubling space into a secure and dry foundation, seamlessly eliminating any radon concerns and enhancing the homes overall environment.
