Radon Gas Mitigation Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN had high radon levels and they wanted to get a radon mitigation system installed. Our crew of Dakota and Geno installed the system starting in the utility room, to the closet (as shown), to the garage, and through the roof. The purpose of the system is to pull radon from underneath the ground and guiding it through the home to the outside of the home so it can escape into the open air. The homeowner was very impressed with the project and their peace of mind is restored knowing that they will breathe safe air!

Terri S. of Minnetonka, MN wanted to get a Radon Mitigation System installed in their home. Our Foreman, Geno Mclain, and his crew member started the installation from the basement utility room to the outside of the home, where they installed the system. The mitigation system is the heart of the system; if it isn't working, radon will not be able to escape the home. Terri was very happy with the installation and the radon levels in her home dropped dramatically.

A concerned homeowner from Minnetonka, MN, enlisted our services when she suspected that her home was infested with Radon gas, which is incredibly harmful when inhaled for prolonged periods of time. Our Radon Design Specialist went out to the property and set up a Continuous Radon Monitor (CRM) to find out what the levels in the home were. After 48 hours, our Design Specialist returned for the kit and found the levels in the home to be above 4 pCi/L. The Nation Radon Defense recommends homeowners take action to lower the levels if they are above 4. Our Foreman, Geno, scheduled a time for the homeowner to set up a Radon mitigation system that works to expel the Radon out and away from the home. Now this homeowner can have peace of mind knowing that she has taken the right steps towards breathing cleaner and safer air! 

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.

Jeffrey H. in Champlin, MN discovered the adverse effects that radon gas has on people's health and he became concerned because his home had not yet been tested. He started looking for a company to test his home, and he came across American Waterworks’ website. He was glad to see that along with concrete repair, basement waterproofing and foundation repair, we also offer radon testing and mitigation. He gave us a call and we sent one of our Design Specialists, Jeremy Radtke, to his home to set up the test. The results showed that Jeffrey did in fact have unsafe levels of radon in his home. Jeremy explained the risks of not having a radon mitigation system installed and he walked Jeffrey through the installation process. Jeffrey wanted to have the system installed as soon as possible, so they scheduled the project. 

Our radon mitigation specialists drilled a hole through the concrete under the stairs 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 mitigation test results showed that his home was now a much safer environment. The installation took only one day to complete, and Jeffrey is glad he took action to protect his and his family’s health.
