Radon Gas Mitigation Before & After Photos

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 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.

Jen S. in Dodge, WI was selling her home and needed a radon mitigation system installed. Her realtor recommended American Waterworks, and we sent our Design Specialist, Kevin Kreofsky, to design a system 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. 

A homeowner in Hokah, MN, recently learned the dangers of radon gas. Worried their home was suffering from high radon levels, the homeowner knew they needed to find an expert to provide them with peace of mind. The homeowner looked into "radon reduction systems near me," and one of the first companies to grab their attention was us, American Waterworks. After seeing several of our success stories, the homeowner knew their project was in the right hands. The homeowner signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist. The Design Specialist promptly arrived at the home and began the radon test. While waiting for the radon test to complete, the Design Specialist searched for the best place to install the Radon Mitigation System. Once the test was completed, it confirmed the levels were dangerously high. To lower these levels, the homeowner recommended installing the Radon Mitigation System outside the home. The homeowner agreed and worked with the Design Specialist to find the best installation date. When the installation date arrived, our Foreman traveled to the home to begin the installation. The Foreman secured the Radon Mitigation System on the south side of the home. After the Radon Mitigation System was secured, the crew cleaned up their matierals and left the home. The homeowner was grateful for the excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to provide its homeowners peace of mind knowing its radon risk was eliminated. 

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.
