A Newark, Delaware homeowner, prioritizing their family's well-being, reached out to Lawson Home Services due to concerns about indoor air quality. This proactive approach demonstrates their commitment to creating a healthy home environment. Putting Family First with Transparent Communication: Lawson Home Services prioritizes your family's health and peace of mind. Upon contact, the homeowner explained their desire to protect their family from potential indoor air quality hazards. We believe in transparency, and recommended a short-term radon test, a quick and informative approach to assess the situation. Confirmation and Taking Charge: The test results revealed elevated radon levels exceeding the EPA's recommended action level for radon mitigation systems. Radon gas is a naturally occurring, colorless, and odorless gas that can seep into homes through cracks in the foundation, accumulating to dangerous levels if left unchecked. Understanding the importance of addressing this issue, the homeowner immediately contacted Lawson Home Services, impressed by our reputation for clear communication and transparent pricing. Prompt Action and Customized Solution: We promptly provided a free quote via email, outlining a customized mitigation plan based on the test results and our transparent pricing structure. The homeowner readily accepted the proposal, confident in our expertise and commitment to their family's health. Expert Mitigation for Long-Term Security: Our certified radon mitigation specialists then conducted a thorough inspection of the area to determine the most optimal placement for the system. This meticulous approach ensured long-term effectiveness. The installation itself went smoothly, minimizing disruption to the homeowner's daily routine, and included: Meticulous Sealing: All cracks and gaps identified during the inspection were meticulously sealed with a special sealant to prevent future radon gas intrusion. This included any cracks around the sump pump pit (if present). Strategic Pipe Placement: The radon pipe was meticulously installed throughout the basement, ensuring proper connection to the rest of the system and reaching the designated exit point outside the home. Powerful Radon Fan Installation: A powerful yet energy-efficient radon fan was strategically placed within the system. This fan continuously draws radon gas from beneath the foundation and vents it safely outside the home. Manometer Monitoring: A manometer was strategically placed within the system to provide a visual indication of the suction power created by the radon fan. This allows for ongoing monitoring and system optimization. Verification and Lasting Peace of Mind:   The homeowner expressed immense satisfaction with the entire process, particularly impressed by our transparent communication and clear pricing. The knowledge that the system came with a warranty provided added peace of mind. Following installation, we conducted a follow-up radon test using a new kit to verify the system's effectiveness. The results were a resounding success, with the radon level dropping significantly below the EPA's action level. This measurable outcome ensured a safe and healthy environment for the homeowner's family.
