Amazing couple had just purchased their dream home in the Midwest and were surprised to find high radon levels during their home inspection. Radon Defense Midwest came to their rescue, providing a quick and effective mitigation solution, which allowed them to move in with peace of mind -- minus the regulation worries too!

What is the best method of radon mitigation? The clients were concerned about the potential health risks of radon exposure in their home, especially with young children around. After a radon test revealed high levels around 38-40 pCi/L, they decided to install a radon mitigation system for peace of mind. They also considered a sub slab depressurization method for the radon mitigation system installation. They were happy how it turned out!

This project required multiple visits and careful planning, as the homeowners were highly particular about both aesthetics and performance. The final solution included two custom radon mitigation systems. The first system involved encapsulating a crawlspace and running a suction point through the rim joist into a sump on the opposite wall. Routing was planned carefully to preserve the home's appearance, with the discharge venting neatly over the eave. The second system was installed on the opposite side of the house after detailed discussions around pipe placement and existing waterproofing. Additional sealing was done around the basement perimeter, using grey caulking as requested. Despite the home's complex layout, the final system was designed to protect both the home's health and its visual appeal.

It started with an inaccessible crawlspace which became quite a burden for the team. Then, they came up with a work around and installed with a 1 sub slab extraction point. There were no issues at all. Client was happy how it turned out as they were planning this for a long time. They wanted to protect their home and family from the high radon exposure since they tested their home and came back with high radon levels.

Dave and Phyllis noticed radon systems popping up on their neighbors' houses this spring and began to wonder about their own radon level. An initial test reported a level of 60.7 pCi/L. The Dow City homeowners, and our team, were shocked by this incredibly high reading but a few additional tests confirmed that Dave and Phyllis needed to act quickly to protect their health. Our team installed a mitigation system that, with the help of a Breath EZ air filter, can lower the Dow City home's level as quickly as possible. Given the home's high levels, our team recommended a few follow-up visits to ensure that the system is running smoothly and efficiently.  Radon, more than many home issues, is regional. If a high radon level is detected in your home, your neighbors likely have similar levels. When Dave and Phyllis noticed mitigation systems appearing in their area, they were right to be concerned. Our Neighborhood Protection Program, which offers free tests to our customers' neighbors, aims to address this. Because, often, the biggest issue in radon mitigation is realizing you need it.
