Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Norwich, CT called us regarding the radon level in her recently purchased home. She had had the home tested, and the radon level came out to 4.6 pCi/L. This is over the EPA's recommended Radon Action Level of 4.0 pCi/L. Therefore, she wanted to install a radon mitigation system immediately, as she was concerned about the health and safety of her family. She wanted her radon levels to be under 2 pCi/L.

We were able to help this customer. We installed a passive radon mitigation system in her home. We identified two separate locations that were in need of a radon fan. Once the ideal spaces for the system were located, our radon mitigation technician was able to begin to install them. He first started by drilling a hole into the concrete slab in the basement. Once the core had been removed, the radon technician installed a pipe and secured it. He also installed a manometer - which measures the pressure of the radon in the system. This is the indicator of whether or not the radon system is functioning correctly. He then drilled a hole for the exterior penetration and installed pipes for that as well. He then went to the outside of the home, installing the fan. He then repeated the process for the next fan on the other side of the house. The technician then sealed all cracks, gaps, and around the holes drilled for the system. After a quick test of the system, our radon technician was done and the homeowner was happy! Now she has a brand new mitigation system that will keep her radon levels low and her family safe.
