Why do you need to install a radon mitigation if you have low levels?

The client had aging parents living with them and wanted to ensure the air quality in their home was as safe as possible. After researching radon, they decided to test their home and found low levels but still wanted to do prevention as they are concerned about the potential health risks to their parents, they opted to install a mitigation system. The customer felt a sense of relief knowing they had taken an important step to safeguard their family’s health, especially for their more vulnerable loved ones. This is a big decision that leads to a great investment to health!

Lakefront Log Cabin Gets Discreet Radon Mitigation Without Sacrificing Aesthetic

Tucked away at the bottom of a steep gravel drive, a beautiful two-story log cabin overlooking the lake was experiencing elevated radon levels of 11.6. With no warranty on levels and a fully finished basement, the homeowner took proactive steps to ensure the safety of the space. A single sub-slab extraction point was installed in the HVAC room, with careful planning around washer/dryer placement to maximize effectiveness. The system was routed discreetly—cored through the poured wall and run behind exposed exterior logs to preserve the cabin’s rustic charm. Though no one was home during the installation, everything was carefully coordinated. The homeowner also invested in a 20x25 BreatheEZ filter and UVC light system for their primary residence in Des Moines.

The crew did a great job with this customer's encapsulation. They recently lost their spouse and wanted to take care of the radon levels in their home to make it as safe as possible. Our crew was able to lift that worry by encapsulating this crawl space giving them overall better indoor air quality.

This was a lovely couple who had an unfinished home and had a radon test during while on the construction phase. The levels were too high so they really decided to mitigate for the protection and safety of the whole family. It was a straight forward installation since there was an ideal structure and room for the radon mitigation system. They were really nice and gave the team on the spot feedback along with some referrals. 

The homeowner thought it would be a challenge for our team to create a crawl space for the radon mitigation to be built but there is no location or limitation of space that our team cannot handle!
