Radon Gas Mitigation Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Prairie Du Chien, WI, recently learned of the dangerous health risk radon poses in households. The homeowner learned that radon is a by-product of uranium, a naturally occurring radioactive element that can be found in soil. As the soil decays, it releases radon and creates a high toxicity level in the air. Concerned that her family was unknowingly breathing in the toxic fumes, the homeowner decided to purchase a radon testing kit. After a couple of days, the results were above 4 pCi/L, which is the EPA's required action level for radon. The homeowner then found our website and contacted us to schedule her FREE estimate. 

In a couple of weeks, our Design Specialist, Michel R., arrived at the home for the inspection. Michel explained to the homeowner that radon is the second-leading cause of lung cancer, so it was good that she contacted us to install our radon mitigation system. Michel then created a design where our radon mitigation would be installed, and the homeowner agreed and decided to move forward with the project.

In about a month, one of our crews arrived at the home for the installation. They began by installing a PVC pipe into the footing of the home. The pipe is then connected to the radon mitigation system that is installed outside of the home. After the crew was done, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

A homeowner in Harpers Ferry, IA, recently read an article discussing the dangers of radon gas. Concered by this discovery, the homeowner looked into a "radon abatement system." One of the first companies to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks, so the homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Brad. A few days later, Brad traveled to the home to begin the thorough inspection. During the inspection, Brad began a radon test. While the test was being completed, Brad searched for the best place to secure the Radon Mitigation System. The test was completed, and the results showed the levels were dangerously high. To prevent the issue from worsening, Brad suggested securing a Radon Mitigation system. Knowing this was the best plan of action, the homeowner agreed and worked with Brad to find the best installation date. When the installation date arrived, our Foreman, Gus, and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. First, Gus and his crew started by securing a Radon Mitigation System on the outside of the home. Once the Radon Mitigation System was secured, the crew shifted to cleaning up their matierals and leaving the home. The homeowner was grateful for the excellent work completed by the crew.

A customer from Lansing, IA got in contact with us when they began to fear that their home may be inhibited by Radon, a colorless, odorless, naturally occurring gas that comes from the breakdown and decay of the soil that surrounds the foundation of the home. When our customer called in, we set them up with a FREE no-obligation estimate. Our Design Specialist, Jarrett, headed out to the property to see what could be done. He began by performing a 48-hour charcoal test, which he left behind to monitor the levels of Radon in the home. Once completed, the home was found to have unsafe levels of Radon. Jarrett recommended the installation of a Radon mitigation system and the couple agreed. 

Our Production crew, led by Dakota, installed the system in no time. Now, our customers don't need to worry about breathing hazardous gas in their home! 

A West Salem, WI, homeowner was surfing the web one day when she stumbled upon an article about radon gas. She read about the hazards that radon gas poses to a household and that the Midwest has some of the highest radon levels in the US due to the geological makeup of the area. The homeowner decided to locate a radon specialist in Wisconsin. Through an internet search, she found our website. She was impressed with our radon gas mitigation system images and decided to sign up for our FREE estimate. While she waited for her appointment, she headed to her local home improvement store to purchase an at-home radon monitoring test. 

Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Ross J, was scheduled to head out to the home. When he arrived, he learned that the homeowner had conducted a home test which had indicated higher-than-average radon levels. So, Ross began his appointment looking for the appropriate place to out a mitigation system. When he finished his walkthrough, he met with the homeowner. Ross explained that 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 an experienced radon mitigation specialist, a radon abatement system will lower the concentration of radon gas in your interior air to the minimal levels recommended by the EPA and other health and safety agencies. The homeowner was impressed with Ross's solution and signed on the spot. 

The day of the installation eventually rolled around. Our Foreman, Geno, and his team wasted no time getting to work installing the system. After a long day for our crew, our customer was delighted to know that she could put her faith in the air her and her family were breathing in each day! 

A homeowner from La Crosse, WI, had been reading a local newspaper when she saw one of our print ads for radon gas mitigation. She didn't know much about radon, so she took to the internet. What she found out was very disconcerting, so she decided to call us to schedule a FREE estimate. Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Brad W, was headed out to the home. 

When Brad arrived, the first step in his process was to place a continuous radon monitoring test in the lowest level of the home. Brad explained that this test works to record the radon levels within the home over a 48-hour timespan. After the test concludes, an average radon level will be delivered. Brad went on to say that if the levels came back higher than 4 pCi/L, he would strongly recommend the installation of a radon mitigation system. He explained that 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. The homeowner liked the sound of Brad's plan but decided to wait until the results returned to make a choice. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Geno M, and his team were able to effortlessly install the system within the home. Now, our customer can have confidence in the air circulating in her home!
