Before & After Photos

This installation was for a young couple that bought their first home. The amazing thing about their story is they had it tested for radon first before moving in. The results turned in 5.5 pCi/L and the home was just built early this year. They wanted the system to be installed in the basement since it's still in the process of finishing. It was not that hard and everything went well!

This client had multiple radon tests conducted on the main level of his home and returned with levels of 8. He has an unfinished space in basement. He mentioned in the winter he had levels as high as 12 on the main level. The install will be a one chamber basement and a dirt crawlspace with a heavy layer of gravel over it was later added as an addition with master suite above it. The opening from basement to crawlspace is 2'x2' wand the next access point is the sump pit with interior drain tile. Currently the floor drain leads to this, and a brown water pipe from his washing machine goes to this. No discharge line or pump, but a tile that lets water flow naturally outside and daylights. The client is also going to have a one way valve or flange installed on floor drain and pipe that leads outside. The final exit will be on backside of bathroom and bedroom closet. The client also requested a radon fan cover. 

This mitigation project was for a farmhouse that was immediately confirmed with a deposited cheque. During discussions with the homeowners, Mike and his wife, various options were explored for the old farmhouse with three chambers. They decided on placing the extraction point on the east side, near the white barn, and expressed interest in duct cleaning after the system is installed. Considering the furnace location's half wall, potential extraction point adjustments were discussed. The homeowners changed their preferences, and flexibility was assured, with the installation crew ready to provide advice during the process.

These clients just learned of their radon elevated levels of 11.8 in basement with two chambers, plus a concrete crawlspace that's 27'x40'. It's an old home with a narrow sump pit. The plan was to block the wall dividing basement and sub slab on either side of wall, core through block low, then go up and route between floor joists to enter crawlspace and have third extraction point. Exit crawlspace on far right back corner below office. Exit through rim joist and place fan on back side of house with fan cover. They added a Breathe EZ filter for extra protection.

This radon mitigation installation is a 3-point system two of which will be on the far wall of the storage room in the basement and one run going to the sump pump around the corner. Customer is right on levels where between 20 to 30 - it's relatively high. He said results were fluctuating but lingering on the high side. Extraction point is in the back corner of the house he was looking to have it hidden in the cutout section of the corner if possible. The team advised client that they needed to see if that was a possibility due to the Copper fight being in the way. He said worst case scenario just go straight out next to it and running up alongside the gutter. It worked out and everyone was happy as the installation went on swiftly.
