Before & After Photos

At Melissa's home in Cumberland Center, Maine, we installed an ERV air system to address radon concerns. Melissa was present and happy with the final placement along the back wall, where it discharges through the basement window. To accommodate the discharge, one window was replaced with plexiglass, while the original window panes were left for the client.

For the planned sub-slab depressurization system, the ideal location would be on the right side of the basement in front of the oil tank. However, existing heat pumps on the exterior might necessitate placing the system above the oil tank. It's important to note that the small crawl space on the left side of the basement will not be included in the mitigation process.

In New Gloucester, Maine, a homeowner diligently kept an eye on radon levels in their home, discovering a concerning reading of 17 pCi/L, equivalent to smoking 30 cigarettes a day.

Understanding the potential health risks involved, Maine Radon and Water Treatment quickly dispatched inspectors to evaluate the indoor air quality. Following a thorough assessment, they suggested installing a radon mitigation system to address the issue.

Grateful to find a trusted solution, the homeowner eagerly agreed to proceed with the radon remediation process, putting the safety and health of their family first.

A New Gloucester, Maine homeowner recently reached out to Maine Radon & Water Treatment with a specific request: to activate an existing passive radon system.

While the homeowner's home presented some unique challenges, such as encased radon piping and a history of roof leaks, we are confident in our ability to overcome these obstacles. By carefully accessing the piping through existing access points and handling the system with care, we can ensure a successful installation.

By activating the existing passive system and installing a premium radon fan, we will significantly reduce radon levels in the home, creating a healthier living environment for the homeowner and their family.

Maine Radon & Water Treatment received a request to carry out radon remediation in this home located in Cumberland, Maine. The levels of radon gas reached hazardous levels. 

After discussing various options with the client, it appears that an Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV) might be the best choice due to the house's unique structure, including three separate slabs, with the last two seemingly poured directly onto the ledge. Considering the presence of a deck at the back of the house, we would need to exit the system through one of the sides, possibly leading to a longer run. Additionally, there's a possibility of needing a mitigation system in the garage as there's a bedroom located above it. The client plans to purchase a radon monitor to assess levels above the garage and conduct a communication test. We provided the client with a radon water test and conducted a water quality test as well.

The levels of radon gas decreased following the installation. Another satisfied client.
