Photo Album: Radon Mitigation in Centreville, MD 21617
A homeowner in Centreville, MD, contacted us after discovering elevated radon levels of 6 pCi/L in their newly purchased home, putting them at risk of long-term radon exposure. They turned to Lawson to mitigate these concerns and protect their family from the health risks associated with radon, especially the risk of lung cancer. After confirming the elevated radon levels using a short-term test kit, we promptly implemented a radon mitigation solution. Our team strategically installed a mitigation system that featured an exterior radon fan to exhaust the harmful gas, a well-placed pipe system to guide the gas outside, and a manometer to monitor the system’s pressure, ensuring proper operation. We also sealed the sump pit to support drainage while providing radon protection. By lowering the levels from 6 pCi/L to a safer 1.4 pCi/L, we ensured the home met safer standards. If you’ve recently moved into a home with elevated radon levels, contact Lawson to lower your radon exposure risk and protect your family.
