This homeowner took a big step toward cleaner air with a 2-point radon mitigation system, Breathe EZ air cleaner, and a sump pump replacement, all tailored to the unique layout of their home. One extraction point will be discreetly hidden in a closet, while the second will be placed in the crawlspace under the 3/4 seasons room, where a mix of slab and insulation made things tricky. An existing drywall-covered hole will be repurposed for coring to avoid extra disruption. The sump presented its own challenges due to a sump jet system. A lowered basin and domed lid were included to improve function and allow for proper sealing. The homeowner also requested a walkthrough of the Breathe EZ system to learn filter replacement. A full-service solution combining radon reduction, air purification, and water control; this home is now set up for long-term health and peace of mind.
When Kathy built her home in 1993, radon wasn’t on her radar. But after her husband’s passing in 2017 and with her son now living in the basement, she wanted to be sure her home’s air was safe. A mid-June charcoal test showed radon levels at 6.5 pCi/L; above the EPA action level of 4.0, which meant it was time to take action.
Our team designed a single-point sub-slab depressurization system, using the existing sump basin in the southwest corner of the basement as the extraction point. We sealed the sump with a new airtight lid and planned the exhaust routing to exit either out the back or west side of the home, minimizing both visual impact and piping length. A 16x20 BEZ air cleaner was also installed in the HVAC system to help improve overall indoor air quality. With this tailored radon mitigation setup, Kathy’s home now has a long-term solution to reduce radon levels, protect her family’s health, and ensure safe air for years to come.
This 1880s Victorian home had a single-point system installed in 2017, but even with multiple fan replacements, levels stayed around 6 pCi/L. No improvements with the indoor air quality. With three chambers, interior waterproofing tile, and an inaccessible crawlspace, the system simply couldn’t keep up. Our solution is a second sub slab extraction point on the NE corner, independent from the tile system, plus needed crack sealing and a clean exit route out the back to protect the home’s aesthetics. A 16x25 BEZ will also boost indoor air quality. This upgrade gives the best chance at lowering radon levels safely.
With radon levels averaging 11 pCi/L, this homeowner scheduled a full radon mitigation system installation along with duct cleaning to improve indoor air quality. Duct cleaning is set within the package along with radon mitigation. The plan includes two extraction points: one near the washer and dryer routed above the ceiling, and another along the exterior wall. The system will exit by coring through the foundation, with the fan installed under the deck and piping routed up the side of the home through a deck board. While UVC and Breathe Easy upgrades were considered, they may be added later.
This home required a major indoor air quality upgrade with two separate radon mitigation systems and full crawl space encapsulation. The first system is a two-point setup with an extraction point near the basement stairs connected into a clean crawl space area, exiting near the rear section of the home. The second system is a three-point radon mitigation design covering multiple basement chambers and crawl spaces, including a concrete crawl area and another section needing full encapsulation. Radon Fan housing covers were also requested to improve the exterior appearance while maintaining strong radon reduction performance. With multiple chambers, crawl spaces, and high-risk air leakage areas, this project is built for long-term radon protection and healthier indoor air quality.
