Radon Gas Mitigation Photo Album: Installing a Radon Mitigation System in Feeding Hills, MA

This homeowner reached out to us after testing her home for radon. Her radon level was tested to be 1.8 pCi/L. This is higher than she wanted, even though it was not at the radon action level of 4 pCi/L. She decided to get a radon mitigation system simply for her own peace of mind.    We were able to help this customer. We installed a passive radon mitigation system in her home. Once the ideal space for the system is located, our radon mitigation technician was able to install it. He first started by drilling a hole into the concrete slab in the basement. Once the core had been removed, the radon technician installed a pipe and secured it. He also installed a manometer - which measures the pressure of the radon in the system. This is the indicator of whether or not the radon system is functioning correctly. He then drilled a hole for the exterior penetration and installed pipes for that as well. He then went to the outside of the home, installing the fan. The technician then sealed all cracks, gaps, and around the holes drilled for the system. After a quick test of the system, our radon technician was done and the homeowner was happy! Now she has a brand new mitigation system that will keep her radon levels low and her family safe.
