Job Stories

Evelyn first suspected something wasn't right with the air in her house when she realized how often she felt sick while at home. Concerned about her health, the Sidney homeowner contacted us about getting her home tested for radon. Sure enough, the radon level was high. We installed a two-suction point system with exterior aesthetics to reduce Evelyn's radon level without reducing the value of her home. To help ensure that the homeowner stays healthy, we also installed a Breathe EZ air cleaner for better all-around indoor air quality and made sure Evelyn felt comfortable changing her Breathe EZ filter. It's all too easy to forget about your air quality until you feel the negative impacts. Stories like Evelyn's remind us all that the air in our homes directly affects our health. Taking steps toward cleaner air like installing radon mitigation and indoor air quality controls help keep everyone in the house safe and healthy.

The team made it happen and they were really happy about it!

Radon Mitigation Install in Blanchard, Iowa   With Radon Testing as their only priority for Ashley, she made the decision to get her own radon mitigation system. She was our client from the month of April and was hesitant to get a system by then and only stuck with radon testing first. She called again this June and asked about a free estimate. We discussed her options and advised to do a new test as radon levels could fluctuate for a lot of reasons. Levels returned around 7 and was eager to have her radon remediation system installed as soon as possible.

Where is Radon most commonly found? Found in Louisville, Nebraska! This was a repeat client of ours with her other homes in other cities in Nebraska. She specifically requested to have the radon mitigation system installed in this home at the back corner if possible. The team tried their best to draft the most ideal layout for the client's demand and they were able to meet in the middle about the design. It was simple install, nothing too fancy. The client's purpose is to have every home she attains protected from radon exposure and anyone who will stay there won't have health concerns in the future. Guilt removed!

This lovely couple were so excited as they have a little one along the way! They were looking into upgrading the health standards of their home and want it more protected from any hazardous elements. Knowing that radon is one, they called us initially for a free estimate and asked what's the best type of mitigation system to place  in their home. We had drafted them their options in which they were happy how it turned out! 

This 4-chamber home was radon tested and came out to be with 8.7 pCi/L on levels -- which is really high. It was an average duplex home and the area used to have brick floor but the homeowners decided to remove it and replaced it with gravel, plastic and concrete. It had an accessible crawlspace to work on and sump pit. We routed the installation plan into the crawlspace for second point and put the radon fan on the south side of home next to the downspout. The homeowner is very detail-oriented so we were really careful explaining every little bit of detail he needs to know. Same goes, they were satisfied how the radon mitigation system installation turned out! We hope you like farm fresh eggs because they were so generous in giving the team some, yummy!

These were one of our delicate customers as the main reason they got a radon mitigation system is because part of the homeowner's lung has been removed. He is entirely sensitive to anything that can attack his respiratory system or as simple as his breathing. The wife is overly concerned about radon at home, so they had to test, the reading came out to 30 pCi/L which was not good. They immediately booked an installation in the closest possible time and date. The team found a room for 3 extraction points and the point starts between the lift station and stack in storage closet. Second point was from the closet going to the bathroom and third point will be from the other closet with the bathroom that has a floor drain. Before the team started everything was identified and explained to both homeowners and all sets of expectations were laid down. They agreed and gave the go signal and everything was smooth as silk! They also threw in an addition of Breathe EZ filter and duct cleaning for extra protection.

At first, they were having second thoughts to pursue this remediation system but most his neighbors have one and it was for the protection of the kids so he made the decision. He had a radon test which returned to 18.5, not good. Thrasher installed a partial system years ago with Waterguard, Triple Safe sump pump, and 32" Cleanspace on walls. There's a sub slab extraction point near sump pit and tap into Waterguard, then second extraction point near door in storage room. The team made a core through block wall to exit on side corner of house and installed a Breathe EZ filter.
