This older home in Rockville MD needed a carefully installed radon gas mitigation system that would solve the high radon levels problem.
When we visited this house in Germantown, MD to estimate the radon mitigation job, we discovered it already had radon piping from the original build. This lowered the price and made the customer happy. The next day, we returned to activate the system by installing a radon fan. Before installing the fan, we had to modify the piping design to accommodate the installation.
After installing the fan and activating the system, we added a U-tube manometer to the pipe to show the customer how to monitor it. The manometer measures the suction pressure inside the pipe so the customer can monitor their radon system.
The customer was very pleased at the end, knowing that they are now breathing safe air inside her house.
This is house had a passive radon piping system that needed to be inspected, corrected, and activated with a properly chosen radon extraction fan
We were called to provide radon gas mitigation in a house under renovation in Silver Spring, MD. We were informed that testing revealed a radon concentration level of 9 pCi/L in the air.
The EPA recommends that Americans consider fixing their homes for radon levels at or above 4 pCi/L, and preferably below 2 pCi/L.
Throughout the day, we had to work with other contractors who were remodeling the house, which caused the job to take longer to complete. However, we offered a flat price and did not adjust it due to the difficulty of the job.
In the end, the finished product looked really beautiful, and the post-mitigation test came back showing less than 0.8 pCi/L, which is an amazing result.
Needless to say, the homeowner is very happy with our work and posted a 5-star Google review for us.
