Radon Gas Mitigation Before & After Photos

Heather J. in Oronoco, MN received high results after testing for radon in her home. She was concerned about her health and safety, so she contacted American Waterworks for more information on our Radon Mitigation System. She chose to have our Mitigation System installed as soon as possible. 

Our Foreman, Dakota Merchlewitz, installed our radon mitigation system in less than one day! The U-tube manometer indicates the vacuum pressure inside the radon system. This will let you know if the radon fan is working or not. If the tops of the red liquid are equal, the fan may not be working or may have been turned off. The U-tube is designed to indicate that the system is actually on and at what pressure. Only a radon test can indicate the levels of radon.

In about a month, our Foreman, Dakota M., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. The crew began by drilling a small hole into the concrete flooring in the basement. Then, a PVC pipe is installed and connected to the fan at the exterior of the home. This is done this way so that our system can properly suction out the radon gas and expel it above the roofline before it can enter the home. Once the crew was done with the installation, they cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

A homeowner from Rochester, MN, had just learned about the dangerous health risks that radon gas poses to a household. He knew he didn't want his family to be silently breathing in these toxic fumes, so he began to look for a radon mitigation specialist in his area. He had heard through a friend that American Waterworks offered radon mitigation in Rochester, MN. He decided to check out our website and he was impressed with the before and after images of other radon systems we had installed during our time in the industry. He decided to sign up for his FREE estimate, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Brad W, was headed out to the home. 

When Brad arrived, he began the inspection by placing a continuous radon monitoring test in the lowest level of the home. The goal of this test is to measure radon levels over a 48-hour time frame and then report the average levels of radon in the home. After Brad placed the test and inspected the rest of the home, he met with the homeowner. He began by saying that the homeowner had done the right thing by getting in contact with us. Brad explained that even if the radon levels were not dangerous, there is nothing wrong with having your home regularly tested for radon gas, as levels can change over time. He went on to say that the tricky thing about radon is that it's invisible, odorless, tasteless, and completely undetectable without proper testing. He said that if the radon levels came back above 4 pCi/L, then he would recommend the installation of one of our Radon mitigation systems, stating 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 liked the sound of Brad's plan but decided to wait to see what the results were. Several weeks later, the results returned with higher than normal levels. The homeowner called Brad and scheduled the project. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Dakota, led his team through a flawless installation. Now, our customer has confidence that his home is healthy!
