Iowa Family Takes Preventive Action with Professional Radon Mitigation

Wanting to take proactive steps toward a healthier home, a family decided to invest in professional radon mitigation. They understood that reducing potential radon exposure is one of the preventive measures they could take to protect their household and improve indoor air quality. A professional radon mitigation system was installed to safely reduce radon levels and provide long-term protection. The family wanted to address the concern now rather than wait for a potential problem to become more serious.

Everything went great, wife is very happy with the work that was done!

Tony was very nice and spoke highly of our company from reaching out to the office, our reputation and reviews, and the appointment. He is a retired police officer from KC. His wife is from Clarinda and they moved there in March. They have allergies and asthma and a 4 yr old daughter so were very concerned about health effects. Levels of 16. Two inaccessible crawlspaces. Lot of severe floor cracks. Extraction point near plumbing stack and second along wall where ERV will go. They liked all of our solutions. Tony had already tried to clean the ducts himself as far as he could and thought they were pretty bad. They also have a chocolate lab.

Andrew and John did a great job with this encapsulation, making sure our concerned customer's radon levels are as low as possible!

Managing Humidity and Radon: Smart Mitigation Plan for a Challenging Crawlspace

During inspection, we found very high humidity and an inaccessible crawlspace, with radon levels around 6 pCi/L in this home, though not fully accurate since the basement windows were open during testing. Our tech's plan includes sealing 60 feet of floor cracks and installing a sub-slab extraction point near the plumbing stack, exiting through the rim joist with the fan mounted on the back of the home. This setup will significantly improve airflow and reduce radon accumulation within the space.
