Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Stoneham, Massachusetts, was moving out west for work and was selling their home in Stoneham. The homeowner had placed their home on the market and after a couple of weeks received an offer that had a stipulation. The offer included the homeowner having a radon test done and installing a radon mitigation system installed in the home before the purchase went through. The homeowner decided to call EFS for a free radon inspection and test. Our CRM test came back at 13.9 pCi/L and our design specialist recommended installing a radon mitigation system with 3 extraction points. 

A resident in Stoneham, Massachusetts bought their house in 2017 and tested it for radon, with results showing it was below the recommended level at 2 pCi/L. However, after almost 6 years and using their basement more often, they decided to conduct another test which showed an average of 7 pCi/L. Concerned about the high levels, they contacted EFS to install a radon mitigation system. Our Design Specialist Dan met with the homeowner to create a system tailored to their home. Our team then installed the system to lower the radon levels and ensure a safer living environment.

A homeowner in North Reading, MA had an existing Radon Mitigation System but it was no longer working properly. A Home Inspector came and felt air coming through the foundation which was the reason for high radon levels. He concluded that the homeowner would need a second Radon Mitigation System. Michael Biedrzycki designed a new system to install in the basement. Scott Crandall and the team installed it. The before picture shows where the new Radon Mitigation System will be set up. The after picture shows both the new and the old Radon Mitigation System. With both systems running the radon levels have returned to below 4.0 pCi/l.

This homeowner in North Reading, Massachusetts needed a Radon Mitigation System. Their radon levels were tested before they purchased the house last summer. The radon levels came back at 5.0-5.3 pCi/l. They have a finished basement with an apartment and wanted to get the radon system installed while the tenant is out of the country. They called Erickson Foundation Supportworks to set up an appointment for a professional to come out and take a look in their basement. 

Michael Biedrzycki was the Design Specialist for this project and was able to come out to the homeowner's home and design them a Radon Mitigation System. After the design process was complete, Michael passed his design over to the Crew Lead for this project. Scott Crandall and his team were in charge of installing the Radon Mitigation System. They successfully installed the system in the home.

The homeowners were happy that they were able to fix the radon issue but also complete it while their tenant was out of the country.

Replacing a passive radon system with a radon fan in North Reading, MA, brought significant benefits to the homeowners. Our crew at Erickson Foundation Solutions expertly installed the radon fan, which actively draws radon gas from beneath the foundation and expels it outside, ensuring a much lower radon level inside the home. This proactive approach significantly improves indoor air quality, reducing the risk of radon-related health issues such as lung cancer. Additionally, the radon fan system is more efficient and reliable, providing homeowners with peace of mind knowing their home environment is safer and healthier. Our professional installation ensures optimal performance and longevity of the system, making it a valuable investment for the property.
