Job Stories

Brad wanted to lower the Radon levels in his home for health reasons. After speaking with the Indoor Air Quality Specialist who helped to design the system Brad was looking for, Lance and Cole installed a 2 extraction point radon system with a domed sump cover. Afterward Brad remarked, "The team was very professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. They did a great job!"

Cole and Jordan installed this ERV for a customer to help lower their radon levels even more, giving them the best air quality possible.

A renovation is ongoing in this client's home. They're making a large addition that includes a space behind their garage that's being converted to a laundry room and will set another space for the garage extension. An upstairs sunroom is also under construction. While they have this, they decided to take a radon test to see what's their level. Lo and behold, it turned out to be almost 10 pCi/L and that's high! The client made the decision to get a radon mitigation system installed with Radon Defense Midwest which would be a great fit while there is ongoing construction. So it's like a hole in one project. Everything was discussed in full detail and the installation was perfect. The client is happy.

This client did make sure his home was tested for radon. It's a newly renovated home and it's nice in person. He requested the best and ideal that would fit in his home's structure. We were able to draft one for him and really liked it! Installation went well.

After receiving radon test results showing 22.2 pCi/L, this homeowner, who had never tested before, took immediate action. With a child living in the mostly finished basement, addressing radon became a top priority. A 3-point mitigation system will be installed, with extraction points at the plumbing stack, SE corner, and along the south wall. The homeowner plans to clear out storage, including part of a built-in shelf, to give the crew access. The system will be carefully routed: points one and two connected low, points two and three connected high, with the system exiting from point two. This proactive move ensures a healthier environment for the entire family, especially the kids living downstairs.

This was a big old farm house and when the team saw the home's structure, it was indeed a challenge installation a radon mitigation system or ERV. As they will need to core through the brick exterior, they will have also need to cut some ceiling out in various locations to run ERV ducts over the HVAC and interior walls. This was fully explained to the customer and they definitely agreed. The team made sure no further breaking will be needed and it will not be damaging the home's aesthetic. We have done proper crawlspace encapsulation and ERV installation for his basement. The basement wasn't really livable but since his dogs mostly stay there, he wants to get them protected from any radon exposure. Everything went well!

Is Radon Mitigation Effective? Radon mitigation was the priority of this couple after they retired. They wanted to live a healthier life and made sure their home was clean from radioactive elements or toxins. They also availed a crawlspace encapsulation as they were aware critters were coming out of nowhere. They were very accommodating and nice. They did request to have the installation done in the living room. So the point of installation started from the living room corner going through the block wall and the exit point near the crawlspace opening on the north side. They were happy with the outcome!

This was a simple installation and the client found us through good reviews in Google. He wanted radon mitigation and duct cleaning on the spot along with paying for everything too. It was a 2-point system out the south wall west of the basement egress. The team ran the pipe outside the home to the west side where the radon fan will be located. The home was small and on a single level with good access to the crawlspace. Everything turned out fine and the client was really happy!

The client has an unfinished basement and would consider transforming it to his own personal office or utility room. He had a radon test before but was a little hesitant and tried to get another one. Turned out with same results. He wanted to mitigate as soon as possible as he is about to finish the construction for his basement. Luckily, the team had a sump and interior drain tile to work with. Customer did offer to handle the sealing of wall joints and anything around the plumbing since it's within the construction plan. Everything went well! 

Susie and her husband thought they were ready to welcome Susie's 94-year-old mother into their Lincoln home until they saw their radon level. Seeing that, the homeowners knew they wouldn't be ready until they were sure the house was safe. We installed a mitigation system and spoke with the Lincoln homeowners about Breathe EZ and other ways to ensure safe and clean indoor air quality so Susie and her mother can breathe safely.
