This family was hesitant to get a radon mitigation system installed as they lived a little far from Central Iowa. Then again, the team wanted to provide an extra mile this holiday season and took the booking. Everything was discussed and the proper set of expectation was provided. The client was happy on how the process was smoothly delivered from start to finish. They had radon levels around 9.0 pCi/L and now down to almost 90% -- 1.3 pCi/L!
When a close friend was diagnosed with lung cancer linked to radon exposure, this homeowner knew she needed to act. Always prepared and proactive, she scheduled a radon mitigation system installation for her single attached home, which included a crawl space and sump pit. The process was smooth and efficient, with the client even lending a hand to move items around. By addressing radon now, she’s protecting her health and ensuring long-term safety in her home.
This home is an old ranch farm house with radon levels of 12 in basement and 6 upstairs above the crawlspace. It also has a two-chamber basement with a large dirt crawlspace, and an old garage that is being renovated as an extended living room area. The client was a referral from a friend who had an installation with us and they were really happy so they spread the word! The client also added a Breathe EZ for extra protection along with a crawlspace encapsulation.
For this two-point radon mitigation project, the system was carefully designed to respect both the home’s layout and the homeowner’s specific requests. With elevated radon levels and a finished basement, the system includes one extraction point beneath the stairs and a second near the basement’s exit wall—both routed discreetly and exiting near the home’s AC unit.
What made this install unique was the homeowner’s active involvement. As a skilled DIYer, he chose to core joist holes himself for cleaner pipe routing and even offered to repurpose an old dryer vent as an exit point. Our team supported his input while ensuring performance and compliance.
Andrew did a great job encapsulating this customer's crawlspace to help lower their radon levels
