Radon Gas Mitigation Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN, was scrolling through social media when he came upon a post discussing the dangers of radon. He learned that radon is a by-product of uranium, which can be found in soil. As soil decays, it releases radon gas, which creates a high toxicity level in the air. Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer, second only to cigarette smoking. After learning this information, the homeowner went to his local convenience store to purchase a radon test kit. In a couple of days, the test results were above 4 pCi/L, and the homeowner quickly began searching for radon mitigation services in the area. The homeowner came upon our website and was impressed with our reviews. He contacted us and claimed his FREE estimate.  

Our Design Specialist, Mitch S., arrived at the home, and the homeowner informed him that he had already tested the radon levels of his home and would like our radon mitigation system installed. Mitch understood and quickly got to work designing where the system would be installed. He explained to the homeowner that our radon mitigation system would be installed at the home's lowest level and consist of a large-diameter plastic pipe that would connect the air beneath the foundation to outdoors. The homeowner understood and agreed to his design.

In about a month, our Foreman, Dakota M., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. They would drill a hole at the footing and place a PVC pipe, which would then connect the system that is installed outside of the home. This design tackles the radon-rich air by spewing it outside before it can reach the home. Once the crew was done with the installation, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

A homeowner from Minneapolis, MN, had just learned about the dangers of radon gas on a household and was worried that her home could be infested with the gas so she decided to find a radon specialist in her area. When she found our website, she signed up for one of our FREE estimates, and several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Dave S, was headed out to the home. 

When Dave arrived, the first portion of his inspection was to place a continuous radon monitoring test in the basement of the home to adequately gauge the levels in the home over some time, delivering an average after a 48-hour timespan. Dave explained to the homeowner that the Environmental Protection Agency recommends taking action with any levels higher than 4 pCi/L. Dave went on to say that, should the homeowner level return higher than 4 pCi/L, he would strongly recommend the installation of a radon mitigation system. A typical radon mitigation system consists of a large-diameter plastic pipe that connects the air beneath your foundation to the outdoors. An in-line fan sucks radon-rich air from beneath your foundation and expels this hazardous air to the exterior. Instead of entering your basement or other living space area through numerous gaps and cracks in the foundation, radon gas is extracted from beneath your foundation before it can permeate into interior space. When installed by a professional, this system will lower the concentration of radon gas in interior areas to minimal levels recommended by the EPA and other health and safety agencies. The homeowner agreed with Dave's recommendation but decided to wait until the levels returned to make a choice. 48 hours later, Dave was back at the home to read the results, which returned marginally higher than the recommended action levels, so Dave and the homeowner worked together to find the best day for an installation. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Geno M, and his team effortlessly placed the system in the home, successfully restoring our customers peace of mind in the air circulating in her home! 

A homeowner in Bloomington, MN, had learned that radon is a toxic gas that comes from the ground and enters the home. Concerned that their family was breathing in the toxic fumes, the homeowner purchased a radon testing kit. After several days, the test results were above 4pCi/L, and the homeowner decided to contact us and schedule their FREE estimate.

In less than a week, our Design Specialist, Justin M., arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, he took a close look at the home and worked closely with the homeowner on the best placement for our radon mitigation system. They agreed that the best placement would be having the PVP pipe installed in the footing of the home and connect to the fan that would be installed at the exterior. The homeowner happily agreed to the recommendation and decided to schedule the installation date.

In about a month, our Foreman, Dakota M., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. After the successful installation, the crew cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

Kyle W. of Minneapolis, MN had a radon level of 4.1 pCi/L. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, 4 pCi/L is the "action level", which means that it needs to be mitigated as soon as possible. Kyle found American Waterworks on HomeAdvisor, so he contacted our office staff and set up a day to get one of our Exterior Radon Mitigation Systems installed. Our Design Specialist, Michel, went to Kyle's home, inspected the exterior of his house, and designed a detailed plan for where to install the system as well as the cost. Kyle was confident in the quote and the design, so he went ahead with the project. 

Our Foremen, Dakota and Geno, installed the system from the inside utility room to the house exterior. The purpose of the mitigation system is to pull radon from underneath the home and expose it into the open air outside of the home. The installation only took a few hours and Kyle was very happy with the work that was completed.
