Radon Mitigation - Stratford, IA
Family Home with 8 pCi/L Radon Levels Protected by Professional Mitigation
After two charcoal radon test kits showed levels around 8 pCi/L, the owners of a longtime family home decided it was time to take action. The home has been in the family for years, and reducing future radon exposure became an important priority. With one homeowner being a cancer survivor, installing a professional radon mitigation system offered added peace of mind.

Three-Point Radon Mitigation System for Farmhouse with Levels Near 40
This project requires a three-point radon mitigation system due to extremely high radon levels nearing 40 pCi/L. The basement is divided into two concrete chambers separated by a brick wall, plus a large crawl space of roughly 900 sq ft, making multi-point extraction necessary for effective radon reduction. Fan exit is planned at the back corner of the home. Routing can be flexible, but keeping runs on one side of the house is recommended for efficiency. Existing wall gaps, rim joist openings, and pipe penetrations can be used to assist routing. Crawl space access is tight and requires full navigation around the ductwork. Homeowner recently purchased the family farmhouse and wants long-term radon mitigation and indoor air quality protection.

Radon Mitigation and ERV Installation for Farm Home With Exposed Soil and Odor Issues
This farm property was referred to us after a local radon company couldn’t take on the project. The homeowners already mailed their check to our Nebraska office and installation is set for December 2nd. With radon concerns, basement odors, and exposed soil under the stairs, the home needs a strong, well-planned solution. We’re installing a two-point mitigation system: one extraction point on the old basement side near the stairs and a second through the wall into the new addition, exiting out the back. An ERV will boost fresh air and improve radon reduction, especially with unknown footer locations and old drill holes from past pressure testing.

Radon Mitigation for a Three-Chamber Home with an Inaccessible Crawlspace
A home with three separate chambers and an inaccessible crawlspace required a carefully planned radon mitigation approach. To address the challenging layout, an opening will be created between the first and second chambers, allowing the system to reach the areas that need attention. Multiple extraction points will be positioned throughout the home, with the system exiting near the northwest corner. An ERV will also be installed in that area to support improved ventilation, with nearby power access helping simplify installation. The Sedona unit will be positioned near the drain. Despite the added complexity of the project, the homeowners were understanding of the work involved and the steps needed to create an effective indoor air quality solution.

Radon Mitigation and Indoor Air Quality Improvements for Home Sale and Health Relief
Paul is a widower living with cerebral palsy and has ongoing indoor air quality concerns. He has already invested nearly $15,000 in solutions including an electronic air filter, UV light, regular duct cleaning, and multiple air purifiers throughout the home. Despite these efforts, he is still looking for meaningful relief and better overall air quality. He may also be preparing to sell the home, making radon mitigation an important step for both health and resale value. The plan is a straightforward single-point radon system, exiting on the northwest corner with fan placement and exhaust on the back or north side of the home to reduce radon levels and support a healthier living environment.
