Radon Gas Mitigation Before & After Photos

Louis G. of Plato, MN had radon levels of 15 pCi/L. The Evionrmental Protection Agency recommends that if your levels are above 4 pCi/L, you should get a Radon Mitigation System installed in your home so you are breathing healthy air. He worked with our Design Specialist, Jesse, to determine a plan of where to install the system. After a thorough meeting with Jesse, Louis signed his contract and got a date scheduled for the installation. 

Our Foreman, Dakota, and his crew member installed our Radon Mitigation System from the utility room to the outside of the home, followed by the cover. The mitigation system is the heart of the system. If it isn't working properly, radon will not be able to escape the home. After the project was completed, Louis gave our crew a 10 and said they did a good job!

Troy H. of Mason City, IA had radon levels of 5.4 pCi/L, so he got a FREE estimate scheduled with our Design Specialist, Josh. Josh went to Troy's house, inspected his home, and provided a quote for our radon mitigation system and where to install it. Troy was confident in the placement and the price, so he went ahead with the project. 

Our Foreman, Dakota, and his crew member installed our mitigation system from the concrete floor of the perimeter room to the outside of the home so the radon could escape from the house. The purpose of our mitigation system is to pull radon from underneath the home and expose it into the open air. Troy had a wonderful experience and was happy with the installation!

A homeowner in Pembina, ND, recently read an article discussing the dangers of radon. Worried about the levels in their home, the homeowner knew they needed to find an expert to provide them with a solution. The homeowner took a closer look at "radon mitigation experts near me", and one of the first companies to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks. Impressed with our stellar ratings and reviews, the homeowner knew we were the ideal company for their project. Since they were already on our website, the homeowner decided to sign up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeonwer prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Derek. A few days later, Derek traveled to the home to begin the thorough inspection and the radon test. After Derek arrived, he started by beginning a radon test. While the radon test was being completed, Derek searched for the best place to install the Radon Mitigation System. Once the test concluded, it showed the levels were dangerously high. Derek recommended securing a Radon Mitigation System. Knowing this was the best plan of action, the homeowner agreed and worked with Derek to find the best installation date. When the installation date arrived, our Foreman, Jackson, traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Jackson and his crew started by securing the Radon Mitigation System outside the home. Once the exterior section was secured, the crew shifted to securing the interior section. Once both sections were secured, the crew cleaned up their matierals and left the home. The homeowner was delighted to know their radon risk was elimainted. If you are looking to have a radon mitigation system installed in your home, sign up for your FREE estimate today! 

Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that has become the second leading cause of lung cancer. Naomi R. in Norwood Young America, MN learned that radon kills over 20,000 people each year and she realized that they had not had their home tested yet. Naomi had used us in the past to repair her foundation and had a pleasant experience, so she contacted us again to have her home tested for radon. One of our Design Specialists, Jeremy Radtke, went to her home to set up the radon test and give her a free estimate. The results showed that her home did in fact have high levels of radon, so Jeremy recommended that they have our radon mitigation system installed. Naomi was eager to have the system installed to protect their health and reduce their chances of getting lung cancer.

Our production team installed the radon mitigation system by inserting a PVC pipe through her sump pump which creates a suction point for the gas. The PVC pipe runs up the house and through the roof. There is a fan installed at the top of the PVC pipe to ensure that the gas is pushed out and away from the home. After each installation, we do a second radon test to ensure that the radon mitigation system is working properly and expelling the radon from the home. The second test reported that Naomi’s home now had significantly lower levels of radon. She is glad that her home is now protected from this harmful, radioactive gas, and that she took action to protect her and her family’s health.

Sandra N. in Albert Lea, MN had her home tested for radon. When the results came back with high levels, she gave American Waterworks a call. Our Design Specialist, Reed Hudson, developed a plan that was unique to her home. 

Our Foreman, Dakota Merchlewitz, started the installation process by drilling a hole in the slab foundation of the home and connected a PVC pipe. The radon gas is drawn upward, and the pipe guides it to the fan. The fan draws and vents radon safely above and away from the home. Sandra is glad she took the necessary steps to protect herself and her family.
