Before & After Photos

Radon usually enters the home from cracks and openings in the foundation. Sealing these openings helps prevent radon gases from entering your home.

Before: Nestled in the heart of Fairfield, CT, a home built in 1950 faced a silent but significant challenge. Radon levels, both in the basement and on the slab, alarmingly peaked at 11, far above the EPA's recommended safety level. The residence, with its traditional charm, hid beneath it a health risk that went unnoticed day by day. The setup included two rudimentary pipes, one in the foundation and one in the slab, inadequately equipped to handle the severity of radon infiltration. The sump pump sat exposed, a testament to the home's aging infrastructure, with no measures in place to control moisture, a critical factor in radon accumulation.

After: The transformation of the Fairfield home is a narrative of technological advancement and safety prioritization. At the heart of the mitigation strategy was the installation of the Eagle Extreme fan, a model chosen for its robust performance and reliability. This system, now fully operational, has dramatically reduced radon levels to a safe 2.5, turning the home from a hazard to a haven. The dual-pipe system, meticulously designed, directs radon from beneath the home and safely out the left side, preventing any re-entry into living spaces. In addressing the challenge of moisture, a strategic decision was made to install a moisture guard. This critical component works seamlessly with the radon mitigation system to ensure a dry and efficient operation, safeguarding the foundation and interior from the risks of dampness. Furthermore, the decision to leave the sump pump uncovered, yet protected, maintained the home's integrity while ensuring easy access for maintenance and inspections. To underscore the commitment to health and safety, the installation was concluded with the provision of a system warranty. This warranty serves as a pledge of quality and effectiveness, offering the homeowners peace of mind and confidence in their newly secured environment.

The Result: Today, the Fairfield home stands as a model of indoor air quality transformation. Through targeted interventions and the integration of advanced mitigation technologies, the house has been reborn as a safe, healthy living space. The once-concerning radon levels are now a thing of the past, allowing the residents to breathe easy and enjoy their home with renewed comfort and assurance.

Before:

Initially, the home presented a common challenge faced by many homeowners requiring radon mitigation: the necessity of installing a mitigation system without disrupting the home's interior aesthetics. The prospect of visible pipes and equipment often raises concerns about the impact on a home's design and living environment. Homeowners typically worry about the system being obtrusive, especially when pipes must be run through prominent living spaces to effectively vent radon gas outside.

After:

With the introduction of our Interior Aesthetic Package for Radon Mitigation Systems, the transformation is both functional and visually pleasing. In this particular home, we successfully installed the radon mitigation system's pipe through the roof, ensuring effective radon gas reduction while maintaining the home's aesthetic appeal.

The pipe is discreetly routed to minimize its visibility and impact on the home's interior design. Special care was taken to ensure the pipe's entrance and exit points are seamlessly integrated into the home's existing structures, making the system virtually invisible to the inhabitants and visitors alike. The result is a radon mitigation solution that not only significantly lowers radon levels to make the home safer but also preserves the integrity of the home's design.

Homeowners now enjoy the peace of mind that comes with effective radon mitigation, without compromising on the beauty and cohesion of their interior spaces. This approach represents a perfect blend of functionality and design, ensuring safety without sacrificing style.

Before: The home in Bristol, CT, exhibited radon levels that exceeded safe limits, posing a health risk to its inhabitants. After: Post-installation, the home now features a fully operational radon mitigation system that has successfully reduced radon levels to well within the EPA�s recommended safety guidelines. The new system ensures continuous control of radon, significantly enhancing the safety and air quality of the home.
