The health risk of radon was not a joke for this family, and they decided to get their own protection by installing a radon mitigation system. They requested if it could be installed, showing it at the back of their home. The team was able to draft an initial design for them and they really liked it. Installation went smoothly!
This was a challenging install as the home had an inaccessible crawlspace. What the team did was to install next to the stairs going through the utility room and run out to the back door. The client was none too picky how the radon mitigation system will be installed as long as it should work as intended.
They did a test and returned with levels of 17. Homeowner worried for his family's health and indoor air, made the decision to get a mitigation system. It was a simple installation, nothing too fancy. Should be a straight shot up into the garage from the bathroom.
Amid the cityscape of Iowa, this diligent homeowner made the choice to invest in radon mitigation. He considered financing as he shared his budgeting struggles with us but it's not much of a problem as our options are very flexible with his household income. After the paperwork and processing... With their system in place, they could proudly say that their home was not just a place to live but also a sanctuary of health for everyone who stays there.
The client and her family were planning to sell their home, but they discovered that the radon levels were high. They contacted Radon Defense Midwest, and the team installed a mitigation system. The levels dropped to safe levels, and they are now confident to sell their home without any issues. We did advise that homes with radon mitigation systems are sold faster versus the ones without.
