Our team of certified radon mitigation specialists then began the installation process, using meticulous methods and high-quality materials. The customized system, designed specifically for the homeowner's home, typically included:
Optimal System Placement: Our installers strategically placed the system for maximum effectiveness and long-term radon removal, considering the home's unique layout.
Meticulous Sealing (if applicable): 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 or crawlspace, 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.
Once the installation was complete, we conducted a follow-up radon test to verify the system's effectiveness. The results were a resounding success! The post-installation test revealed a significantly reduced radon level, well below the EPA's recommended safe action level. This accomplishment ensures a safe and healthy living environment for the homeowner and their family, providing lasting peace of mind.
