Andrew and John did a great job with this customer's radon mitigation install

Mitigating a Family Home with History

This ranch home tested at 11.5 pCi/L, and while the structure holds decades of family history, it also presents unique challenges. The original porch was enclosed to create a finished living space, but the crawlspace beneath remains inaccessible—making radon level warranties difficult.

The basement is mostly finished, except for a small HVAC room. The homeowner’s grandfather added the basement in the 1970s and later installed interior drain tile, though the sump pump is located outside. With uncertainty about where the tile runs, our team plans to extract near the plumbing stack and tie into the system if accessible.

Routing will go through the rim joist, with the homeowner assisting by relocating the water softener basin ahead of time.

Two-Chamber Basement Radon Mitigation for Levels of 9 pCi/L

Radon levels of 9 pCi/L were detected in this home’s two-chamber basement, putting the property well above the EPA recommended action level. With multiple basement sections affecting airflow and pressure, a properly designed radon mitigation system is essential for effective radon reduction. By addressing both chambers, the system will help lower radon exposure risks, improve indoor air quality, and create a healthier environment for the homeowners. Even moderate radon levels can become a long-term health concern, making early mitigation a smart investment for safer living.

Radon Mitigation Planned Before Move-In for Newly Purchased Home

After purchasing this unique home, the homeowner coordinated the project remotely from Arizona while preparing to move in this May or June. During a FaceTime walkthrough with his brother-in-law, the plan for a sub-slab radon mitigation system was finalized after testing showed levels at 3.9 pCi/L, right near the EPA action threshold. The system will use an extraction point near the plumbing stack and exit through the rim joist. Because of the home’s low extended metal roofline on the west side, the vent pipe will extend four feet above the roof to meet proper radon mitigation standards. The homeowner understood the design and approved the setup for long-term indoor air quality protection.

This nice couple was starting their own family and just purchased their very own home. They called in for a FREE estimate and upon seeing the house, it was a large home with a big basement storage room. They did emphasize that's where they want the installation structure to pass going up to the garage. The team drafted their request and immediately had it done! We also had company -- the Annabelle Doll! Everything went well.
