A homeowner in Hutchinson, MN, worried their home's radon levels were alarmingly high. Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that is emitted from rocks and soil. Additionally, radon can be found anywhere one arch and emissions can vary based on local geography. Hoping to find a professional to provide them with a solution, the homeowner began looking into "radon mitigation systems near me". One of the first companies to catch their attention was us, American Waterworks. After taking a closer look at our radon before and after photos, the homeowner knew we were their best option. The homeowner called our Appointment Center and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the estimate was set, the homeowner prepared for the arrival of our Design Specialist, Tony. About a week later, Tony arrived at the home and started the appointment. First, Tony placed a radon test to discover the homes' radon levels. While the radon test was being completed, Tony began looking for the best place to install the Radon Mitigation System. After the test was completed, it showed that the levels were alarmingly high. To eliminate the threat, Tony recommended installing a Radon Mitigation System in front of the home. Knowing this was their best plan of action, the homeowner decided to go ahead with the recommendations. Next, Tony passed the proposal to our Logistics team to give the final stamp of approval. Once the plans were approved, the project was scheduled with our Foreman, Dakota, and his crew. A few weeks later, Dakota and his crew traveled to the home to begin the installation. Once they arrived, Dakota and his crew began by installing the Radon Mitigation System on the wall. Once the Radon Mitigation System was installed, Dakota and his crew cleaned up their materials and left the home. The homeowner was impressed with their excellent work completed by the crew. American Waterworks is happy to eliminate radon risks in its customers' homes.
Fred from Cavalier, ND had been reading up on the side effects of radon gas. Fred had read that levels are higher in the Midwest than in other portions of the region, and was afraid for the lung safety of his household, should there be hazardous radon gas present. He did some research about companies that could help and found our North Dakota branch. When he called our office, we set him up with our FREE estimate by one of our Design Specialists. A few weeks later, a member of our Design Specialist team, Evan, headed out to the property to complete a radon test, which after 46-72 hours, came back showing high, hazardous levels of radon in the home. Evan explained that while the levels were high, our company could install a radon mitigation system both inside and outside of the home that would work to pull radon from the home and pipe it upwards and out of the home. Fred quickly agreed and work began some weeks after.
Our Foreman, Zach, and his team worked quickly to install the system, and when the work was completed, Fred was happy to know that the air in his home was safe to breathe!
Anne L. and her husband in Mankato, MN had recently purchased a home and their realtor recommended that they have the home tested for radon before they move in. After learning that radon is the #1 cause of lung cancer for non-smokers and kills over 21,000 people each year, they started looking for a company to test their home, so they would not be putting their health at risk. Their realtor recommended using American Waterworks, so they gave us a call and we sent our one of our Design Specialists, Jeremy Radtke, to set up the test. 48 hours later, Jeremy came back to read the test results. He discovered that their house did in fact have high levels of radon. Jeremy recommended that they have our radon mitigation system installed as soon as possible and they agreed.
Our radon mitigation specialists drilled a hole through the concrete in the basement to create a suction point for the gas. Then, a PVC pipe is inserted which goes up through the house and exits the home through the roof. A fan is installed at the top of the PVC pipe to ensure that the radon gas is being pushed away from the home. The post radon mitigation test showed a drastic reduction in radon gas, and they were relieved that their health would not be compromised. The installation only took one day to complete, and now they can rest easy knowing that their home is protected.
